Great stay
House was great for what we needed while in GJ for a state swim meet. Close to CMU, quiet inside, cool and clean. Queen mattress was terrible but other three beds were fine.

Great Place / SUPER-HOST!!
My wife and I recently stayed at The Train House, a great experience, great central place / base for all of our adventures in and around Grand Junction. Super-quiet neighborhood & close to downtown area with shops & restaurants, 20 min to Palisade, 20 min to Fruita, approx 50 min to Grand Mesa. We did need to contact our host for one small minor thing, & she is or should be a SUPER-HOST, so so nice & request was taken care of quick same day!! We loved sitting on the back deck in the mornings & evenings, & plan to be back in Grand Junction again. We'll definately stay here again!! Thanks again to our host!

Cute house in Grand Junction
Well appointed, cute, nostalgic house with all the things to make our stay comfortable. While it was just two of us, this house could handle several more comfortably. Great owner-made salsa too! Super home base for surrounding National Parks, Grand Mesa, hiking, biking, fishing! Very close to CMU as well. We will be back!
