About the host
Hosted by Kristy and Mike Driver
Kristy and Mike have been providing property management services for luxury properties for the past 30 years. We fell in love with the Fruita area because of it's year round sunshine and abundance of outdoor activities. Our goal is to make your stay with us 5 stars!
Why they chose this property
We like the location because of the location to downtown - just steps from Fruita's best coffee, dining and pubs.

Your ideal Fruita summer escape awaits. Recently remodeled and dog-friendly, this home sits just blocks from downtown. Fire up the grill, soak in the hot tub, and head out to explore all the color, adventure, and charm Colorado has to offer.
