Launch your Colorado adventures – Historic Downtown convenience

Come experience a cozy, modernized 1900 home located in the growing and gritty mixed commercial/residential community in downtown Grand Junction, just blocks away from the Riverfront and Las Colonias Park. The house, a.k.a 805, sits on the same property as our strength and conditioning facility, Ridgeline Fitness. If you are interested in learning more reach out to us!

805 was built in 1900!!!! We've modernized while preserving it's historical charm. Enjoy curling up in cozy bedrooms, one with its own infrared sauna. Then you can hang out in the main room equipped with 55" 4K Smart TV with Sonos surround sound and log into your favorite streaming service (Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, etc) to enjoy music sipping a local beverage in front of the picture window or relax by watching your favorite movie. We (often) have beer on tap in our kitchen kegerator from local Monumental Beer Works and more importantly purified reverse osmosis water to hydrate your Grand Valley adventures.

805 is the building on the property that sits closest to South Avenue, and guests typically access the home from the front door, which faces guest parking on South Avenue. Follow a concrete sidewalk to the front door. There is a motion detecting light to provide a well lit path after dark to the house. There is a security camera both at the front door and the back door of the house for safety. There are NO CAMERAS in the house. Please note that there are three stairs up to the front porch and three stairs up to the rear of the house, thus guests will need to be able to safely navigate a small number of stairs to access the property. There are no stairs in the home.

We have a free, dedicated parallel parking space for guests on South Avenue. There is free on the street parking on 8th street. 805 is a 5-10 minute walk to the best places on Main Street in Downtown GJ. AND bring your favorite bike! The Riverfront Trail (paved) can be accessed in 4 min by bike, and goes all the way to Fruita. Uber and Lyft are also available.

We have decorated 805 with eclectic artwork from our lives for you to enjoy during your stay! Since we don't live on the property, it's our way of sharing our experiences and personalities with you.

NIce house in Grand Junction
House has everything and more for staying in GJ. The Main St. restaurants were a few blocks away and a very nice area to just walk and see all the artisan shops. Would recommend it to anyone.

Quick visit in GJ
The listing is accurate. The host communicates very well. The house is charming, clean, and they really make an effort to make you feel at home. The area was a little more industrial / commercial than I expected but it wasn’t an issue at all for me. I would stay there again.

Enjoyable stay
Adam's house was updated and comfortable. Easy street parking at the front door, close enough to main street to walk to dinner, and beer in the kegerator made for a great stay. Adam was quick to respond. Only negative (and the listing is upfront about it) is the house is in a light industrial neighborhood. I would absolutely book this property again.

We enjoyed a quiet night in and cooked dinner in the very well supplied kitchen. Everything was very clean and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable, the train whistle woke us at 7 which was perfect timing.

Fabulous Older Home with All Amenities!
Correspondence with owner was fantastic. Owner has gym behind property and he is available if needed. Home is completely refurbished, new flooring, kitchen, shower area, AC units in most rooms. Organic mattress, pillows, shower supplies, shampoos, body wash, etc. The home is immaculate. Pictures and description are accurate. We were worried about the area, but Adam assured us he has had no problems in the 15 years he has been there. Close proximity to downtown with several EXCELLENT restaurants. There is a train that moves through town 2-3 times at night. First night was interesting as we were rail employees, so no problem. Next nights, we hardly heard at all. Enjoyed so much, we've book for next year at this time. Thanks, Adam!

Nice stay in Grand Junction
We enjoyed this nice clean house in Grand Junction. The two bedrooms were perfect. The small AC units in each area made it easy to control the temperature. In the morning, we would recline in chairs and drink coffee on the front porch. We loved the place and would certainly return.

Recommended host
I had issues getting in to the property my first day which was only a half day rental in agreement with the host. However, the host went above and beyond to fix the issue of me not getting in that first half day (refunding and then some). Place was clean and the host was responsive to make sure everything else was as comfy and clean as can be. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to stay in the area. The host makes all the difference going out of his ways to assure your satisfaction.

This is our favorite VRBO, and we stay in a lot of them all over the US. Adam is a great host, and his house is clean and well furnished. Close to the Colorado River Trail System, Colorado National Monument, and the downtown area which is loaded with great shopping and restaurants.

We really enjoyed our stay in Grand Junction. The house was very easy to find & all check in/out instructions were super easy!

Great base for exploring the area
Clean, comfortable base for exploring Grand Junction and beyond. Home is walking distance from the Amtrak station and downtown GJ. Adam has included many nice touches from the welcome board to condiments in the refrigerator to guidebooks for exploring the area. I am a tea drinker and enjoyed the electric kettle and the mini teapot for steeping loose tea. Lovely home.

Great stay
The home was the perfect size — very spacious for me and my husband with plenty of places throughout the space for us to work, and the sauna was a nice touch! Loved having the water filtration system too. The periodic passing train at night did keep us up at first, but then we got used to it. We’ve dealt with more disruptive sounds in hotel rooms. Overall, great, cozy location with lovely plants, book collections, historic accent pieces, and decor. It was close to downtown, a quick drive to many hikes, on a quiet street with all the kitchenware we needed to cook and even got to enjoy French press coffee in the morning.
