About this property
Apple Hacienda: Fruita Basecamp w/ Style
? Welcome to Apple Hacienda
A Fruita escape where comfort meets adventure
Tucked in a quiet neighborhood just minutes from downtown Fruita, Apple Hacienda isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to slow down, gear up, and make yourself completely at home.
Whether you’re biking world-class trails, hiking the Colorado National Monument, or just here to unplug and breathe in some fresh high-desert air, this bright and beautifully updated home is your perfect basecamp.
?️ Mornings Start Here
Wake up to soft light filtering through wide windows. Start your day with a hot cup of coffee on the back patio—shaded by apple trees and just the right kind of quiet. Then head inside, where a fully stocked kitchen invites you to whip up breakfast before your day of exploring.
You’ll find modern appliances, spacious counters, and everything you need to cook, snack, or just reheat last night’s leftovers from that amazing local taco spot.
? Where You’ll Sleep
After a day of desert adventure or small-town exploring, come back to two inviting bedrooms—each featuring a plush king bed, fresh linens, and generous closet space so you can actually unpack and relax.
Need a little extra room? The dedicated home office includes a full futon sleeper (perfect for kids!) and a monitor-ready desk setup in case remote work or homework sneaks into vacation.
? How You’ll Lounge
The open living and dining area feels bright, cheerful, and easy. A big, deep-cushioned sofa welcomes you to kick back. Whether it’s streaming your favorite shows, hosting a family game night, or just napping in the afternoon sun, this is your place to recharge.
There’s also bar seating and a dining table that’s great for meals, laptops, puzzles, and everything in between.
? Essentials Included
The shared bathroom has a clean, simple layout with a step-in shower, fluffy towels, and starter toiletries. You’ll also find a full-size washer and dryer, so feel free to pack light or clean up after trail time.
?️ Grill, Chill, and Take It Outside
Dinner just hits differently out here. Fire up the propane grill and gather at the patio table for four. Surrounded by shade trees and Fruita sunshine, it’s a peaceful space to linger long after the plates are cleared.
? Adventure-Ready Amenities
Extra-wide driveway with plenty of parking
Easy bike storage in the backyard or laundry room
Super-fast Wi-Fi and Smart TV for your downtime
Refrigerated A/C and efficient heating for year-round comfort
Quick access to I-70, downtown Fruita, and Grand Junction
? A Location Built for Exploring
You’re less than 5 minutes from Fruita’s downtown restaurants, coffee shops, live music, and farmers markets—and just a quick drive to hiking trailheads, iconic MTB singletrack, and jaw-dropping red rock scenery.
Grand Junction is 12 miles away if you want a bigger city vibe, or stay local and discover why Fruita’s laid-back charm keeps guests coming back.
? Spotless & Thoughtfully Stocked
We professionally clean Apple Hacienda before every stay, and we’ve thought of all the little things:
Kitchen stocked with dishes, cookware, coffee, basic spices & cleaning supplies
Beds made with high-thread-count linens & cozy comforters
Bath essentials like towels, shampoo, conditioner & soap
Trash & recycling bins inside and out for easy cleanup
? Guest Experience Standards
At Visit Fruita, your comfort and safety matter—and so does being a great neighbor. To help make that happen:
Primary guest must be 25+ and present for the duration
A signed rental agreement is required before check-in
Ring doorbell & noise monitoring devices may be used outside (never inside)
Government-issued ID may be required at check-in
We keep it simple so you can focus on what matters: a great trip.

Check-out instructions
The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Remove personal items and remove leftover food and drinks
Turn off the lights and lock the doors
:-) If the house has garage door openers, can you make sure to put them back on the kitchen counter?
:-) If you used the sofa sleeper, can you please take the bedding off before closing it up? It's fine to just leave on the floor in a pile!
:-) Can you help us with energy conservation and set the Heat or Air Conditioning Thermostats back to “Regular Schedule”, shut off the lights and close the windows before you leave?
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
