Property Details

Embrace country living! Stargaze from the wrap-around deck of this charming 5-bed, 3-bath home surrounded by farmland. Just 3 miles from downtown and 5 miles from Kokopelli Trails for biking, hiking, and more. Your outdoor adventure awaits!

Welcome to Shady Acres!

❤️ Large Dining Table Seats 8, plus 4 in the breakfast table
❤️ Large kitchen and dining area with wonderful views and plenty of morning light through the bay windows.

❤️ This home has high speed Wi-Fi internet
❤️ Bring the whole family - This house is Dog-Friendly (max 20lb please)
❤️ Efficient heating system and 2 "Evaporative Cooling Systems" - An Evaporative Cooler lowers the air temperature by passing outdoor air over water soaked pads and then pulling the cooled evaporated air into the home. Evaporative cooling systems can be used effectively in the dry desert air of Mesa County. Operating instructions are included in the home but does require a window or two to be cracked open to allow for circulation. This cooling effect will achieve similar home temperatures as other forms of cooling, however the air may feel more humid and be louder (due to the fan) than refrigerated air units.

Great ranch house with tons of room. Very comfortable and peaceful. Great for a big group. It definitely feels like you're out in the "country" but hardware store, Dollar store, grocery store and downtown Fruita are only minutes away. Highly recommend!

What a great spot to stay during a bigger group mountain biking trip. Ample amounts of room for 7 people plus 2 dogs to roam around the house without getting in one another's way. The scenery was awesome and no road noise from the highway, super peaceful valley to stay in.
