About this property

Bookcliff Ranch Casita

The Casita is attached to our home but separated by the two car garage. It is a southwestern style ranch surrounded by alfalfa fields and very large old growth cottonwood trees. The Casita is inside the gated main courtyard wall, which provides security and serenity. There are no neighbors close to the ranch, we are offset from the end of the road cul de sac by nearly 1/4 mile. The pool is located in the backyard of the main house and is suitable for use from Memorial day through Labor day. The wildflower gardens enhance the sights and smells of Western Colorado as well as providing ample food for butterflies, honey bees and Humming birds. Several runs of grape vines line the pasture fence at the back of the property. There are many ways to enjoy walks and bike rides along the Highline canal and local roads as traffic is minimal in our area. Wildlife viewing is readily available, mule deer, coyotes and birds including a family of red tail hawks call Bookcliff Ranch home. On special occassions Golden eagles and Bald Eagles are seen.
The Casita is best suited for 2 adults and 2 children or 3 adults, 2 of which could share a bed. Additional guests will be charged a one time fee of $35.00.

Charming casita and property owner
Krista was there to greet me and show me around the casita. The property was darling, clean and welcoming. It has a "home away from home" feel. Getting around to local businesses and outdoor adventure destinations was a breeze.

Beautiful Casita
I needed a place to have an outdoor photoshoot and thought this property would be a great fit. I asked the owner if I could use the outdoor space before booking. We used the Casita to change clothes in. It was spacious, beautiful and extremely clean. The property itself was gorgeous and located in a peaceful location. Would definitely recommend this VRBO. I hope to continue to use it for other photoshoots several times a year.

About the host

Hosted by Rob and Krista Bonino

Host profile image
We are both retired from the US Army and recent residents to the area. This area offers dozens of chances to enjoy the outdoors and explore new and different sights. We moved from western Kentucky to escape the heat and oppressively high humidity. We found that climate here, in addition to the climate this area has an excellent school system and a safe and stable community where kids can walk or ride bikes nearly any place and feel safe.

Why they chose this property

Quiet, serene and off the beaten path. Full of amenities and DOG friendly. Our property is gated and safe for family pets.
There is a one time $25.00 pet fee.

What makes this property unique

Close to so many outdoor activities and opportunities you may never see or experience all the trails and venues in and around Fruita. The views from nearly every spot on the property are unrivaled, from the Colorado National Monument to the west to the Bookcliffs to the east the North Fruita desert and mountains to the much to see and do! The ranch house sits nearly centered on the 100+ acre property and is quiet at night and dark enough for some excellent star gazing.
