Elk hunting trip for the boys/shopping for the girls.
The is the most darling house. We loved everything about it. Communication was like texting my best friend. Super easy. Super clean. Location great. Very well stocked. Our dogs were welcome but you couldn't tell that a dog had ever been in the home. If we go back to this location this is the house I will look for again!

Great stay in Fruita
Paired Ladybug and Atchee (next door) for our 8 person Mountain bike group and had a great stay. Nicely refurbished houses, well appointed, and easy 1/2 mile walk to the downtown shops, bars, restaurants.

Fantastic Stay
We loved this house and the location. Super short walk to downtown shopping and restaurants. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for us and our three kids. Everyone had a bed which means everyone got along. The lack of door on the upstairs bathroom took some getting used to but we managed. The management company was the perfect combination of checking in to make sure we were happy and then leaving us to enjoy our stay. Thanks for a wonderful week!

Great time
Great location, outdoor space to enjoy meals and close to trails. We had an adventurous and relaxing time! We did have to clean the grill before use and some other dishes but overall the house was ready to go for us.

So comfortable and an enjoyable stay!
Came for a graduation and we had such a great time. This home is so comfortable and a good place for a family to have some time together. The yard was so nice to hang out and enjoy each other as well! Everything was perfect! We hope to come again!

Loved Fruita
An eleven day family Christmas get-away was our daughter’s idea, and we are so happy she chose Fruita and one of the Ladybug houses. The beds were comfortable, not firm, not soft, somewhere in-between. Plenty of spices and dishes and cooking appliances. We loved the short walk to the “circle” of town, shopped for presents at the downtown stores, shopped at the local market and met many locals who were so friendly. Went to “Junction” (as the locals call it), hiked to Rifle Waterfall, and went to Colorado National Monument. This location was perfect.
