Butterfly - Cozy Cottage w/ Great Downtown Location

A few reason why we love this adorable place:
❤️ Covered patio area with fire pit and BBQ grill. Plenty of seating!
❤️ High Speed Wi-fi, big flat screen Smart TV for movie night!
❤️ A Kitchen that fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, ceramic range stove, pots and pans, and full size coffee maker + Keurig combo
❤️ Clean lines, updated appliances and plenty of natural light!
❤️ 1 car garage plus driveway and trailer-sized parking.
❤️ Efficient heating system and and "Evaporative Cooling System" - 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.
❤️No Pets, Please!

Charming and perfect
Exactly how it was described. So charming and loved the decor! Even provided a gift basket with coffee, hiking map and other goodies. Lots of towels and blankets which I loved. I feel like some VRBOs don’t leave blankets for variant temperatures. Back yard was nice! Safe neighborhood. Our favorite part was the porch. Simply perfect!

Lovely Home in Downtown Grand Junction
We had a great stay at the Butterfly house. The house is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. I enjoyed the large kitchen. Being close to downtown and Lincoln Park made it wonderful for walking.

Butterfly House
Butterfly house was the perfect spot for our stay. We were able to walk to and from CMU campus daily for the event we were in town for. The house is adorable as seen in the pictures! It was spotless and comfortable. The front porch and living room spaces were so great for our group and we loved the bright kitchen! Everything was so well laid out and such cute decor. The gift basket with grocery bags were nice touches as well as the starter supplies and trail maps etc. Grand Junction and surrounding areas have so much to do and see. Great house, easy access and end of stay routine instructions! We would definitely recommend!

Perfect for college visit!
We were visiting for Homecoming/Parent's weekend at Mesa and having our high schooler do a college visit. Walking distance for the football game and to everything. Perfect location and great communication with Kristy! Lovely home and so much nicer than cramming into a hotel room. Will definitely be back!
