This is a well-loved home, pleasant and comfortable and conveniently-located. The host is thoughtful and accommodating; her recommendations were excellent.
Dog owners: the backyard is good-sized and can be accessed directly through a door from the main bedroom. In addition, there is off-leash hiking park (Lunch Loops) a 5-minute drive away.

The Sweet Apple cottage is a comfortable, fully-equipped home, close to the Colorado National Monument and just about all of the Grand Junction area attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great backyard for relaxing.

Jackie was very responsive and sweet and kind. The house was warm and inviting. The bed was comfy. The highlight, for me, was the yard: our doggy just loved it. The neighborhood is quiet, although you can hear traffic from the nearby road. (With the windows closed though, you couldn’t hear the traffic). The banana bread was a nice touch. For me, the downside was that I felt bad for displacing the owner. She lives here normally, unless it is rented. Her decor reflects a well-lived and interesting life; however, there were lots and lots of knick-knacks and mementos covering every surface. I had to move things aside to make room for my travel bags and toiletries. More so though, I just felt badly that I was invading her space and her world.

Beautiful place, even better than described. Everything was included and I mean everything. Highly recommend this home. We ended up purchasing our own property in the area so we moved out of this place right into our own nearby.
Great job Jackie!

Our stay at the cottage was much more than expected.
It provided all the comforts of home...including a peaceful environment in a beautiful setting. It was conveniently located to all the site and attractions that Grand Junction has to offer. We would highly recommend staying here and can't wait for a return visit to the "Sweet Apple Cottage".

Jackie was lovely and so welcoming. She gives up her home for guests to visit the area. Her friendly personality made the trip extra special. Her back yard was nice to enjoy in the morning and later at night, very relaxing. It had a lot of great sniffs for our pup Jackson. Quiet neighborhood, Jack and I walked at 6 am each morning. Loved hearing the roosters crow down the street, we couldn’t hear the roosters at Jackie’s only when out and about. If we go back, we will definitely stay with Jackie. She’s a great hostess! Thank you Jackie!

My family was travelling from Vail, CO to the Canyonlands so the cabin was right in the middle and was a perfect location for us. Jackie was a wonderful host and extremely helpful. She was very welcoming and had the most delicious loaf of double chocolate banana bread waiting for us. This was such a nice treat after a long day of travelling. In addition, she provided us with a book of all the local restaurants and attractions to visit. We were happy that we chose to stay at her place and would recommend it to others. Thank you Jackie for your wonderful hospitality.

The house was adorable. Jackie is the cutest lady and her outdoor space is to die for. My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our stay.

It was great to have such a comfortable home to stay in. I especially loved the kitchen and the master suite. The outside patio was also a great place to enjoy our morning coffee. I've never been in a place that had so many "incidentals" available. The communication with the host was easy.

Jackie’s VRBO is a lovely, comfortable respite in the Redlands, an oasis close to everything. We were greeted with her delicious double chocolate banana nut bread. We had family in and out and did lots of cooking - her kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Her backyard garden and patio is lovely and guest friendly. Comfortable beds and very clean. Loved it!

We had a great stay at Sweet Apple Cottage! This is the perfect location to explore the Colorado National Monument as well as Canyonlands/Arches. So close to fuel, grocery, wine/beer store, and Handlebars Tap House. The house was spacious and everything provided for.

Lovely home, wonderful host. My husband and I stayed here with our dogs for a long weekend. The home was bigger than I thought it would be, the yard was fenced and had good privacy. Location was perfect - close to trails, easy access to town, and quiet/peaceful. Jackie has made the house a home and we felt very comfortable. Will definitely be back.

Darling log cabin cottage in a great location. Host is an excellent communicator and generous about sharing her actual home with visitors.
5.0
This property is fantastic and the description doesn't do it justice. There are so many good features, but I elaborate on three:
. The house is a lot larger than the pictures convey. Two couples have private beds and baths on opposite sides
. The yard is very large, grassy, fully fenced, with easy access in/out for dogs
. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a long diningroom table. We went here for thanksgiving and it was perfect
Also, the biking trail to town or to the lunch loops/monument is 300ft away.
Fantastic, we would definitely come back!

Totally inviting when you walk into the home! We were welcomed with Jackie’s homemade Double Chocolate Chip Banana Bread! So yummy! The home was very clean and comfortable! Jackie was very responsive to all our questions and gave us ideas of the sights in Grand Junction. This was our last stop on a 16 day trip to see sights in the Southwest USA. Great place to chill for a day before beginning a long 2 day trip home. The kitchen has everything one needs and the deck was great to enjoy a couple of adult beverages in the afternoon. My husband commented that the TV’s at this house were by far the easiest to use! He was able to watch college football Sat evening!!!

Jackie is a wonderful host and and we feel fortunate to have stayed at her home. Being in such a beautiful, inviting and relaxing home was just what we needed. And her homemade bread was a delicious treat! It's a special place, hosted by a very special, thoughtful lady!
5.0
We felt very safe and cared for. Jackie is the best - homemade bread to welcome you - all the staples, coffee, canned goods at your disposal if wanted. The king bed was very comfortable. TV's in each room, fans, even charging cords for the phones. The host is very easy to get hold of and discuss anything you need. Will stay there again!

Home Away from Home
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cottage, which served as a great home-base for our time exploring the Grand Junction area and visiting our son who is a student at CMU. And it was great to be able to have our daughter's chocolate lab with us. The cottage was a lovely retreat among the trees, and it was fun to see the quail that were about and the other birds that visited the feeders. We felt so comfortable, relaxed, and truly at-home here. Jackie has provided EVERYTHING you could possibly need, including bedside iPhone chargers! Loved the deck and yard and the kitchen was perfect for a big family dinner one night. We hope to return!

The Sweet Apple Cottage met all of our expectations. It was a short, easy drive from the Grand Junction airport. We had arranged for an early check-in with the owner (Jackie) and she was waiting for us when we arrived and gave us a quick tour of the property. It was every bit as clean and cozy as the pictures on the web site. We had absolutely no problems during our stay. The cottage was equipped with everything we could possibly need from well-stocked kitchen supplies and hardware to comfortable beds. The location was also just what we were looking for - easy drives to downtown, the Colorado National Monument as well as several wineries. All-in-all, a great finish to a wonderful vacation.

The home and location could not have been better. My wife and I stayed for three weeks and we were visited by friends for one of them. The location is quiet but downtown and eateries are less than five minutes away. And CNM is just up Monument Rd. from the home. Our host and homeowner was most attentive and responsive. A wonderful escape from early Minnesota spring.

Cozy cottage at the gateway to adventure
I came to GJ to run a trail race. I was pleasantly surprised by how close this cottage was to the grocery store, gas station and unlimited trails. Colorado Monument was a 6min car ride or a 15min bike ride.
Sweet Apple Cottage is a cozy comfortable home. I slept with the windows open, while I stayed their alone. That’s a testament to how safe it felt. It had everything I needed and few extras (double chocolate banana nut bread). I loved how personal the home felt with a bit of the owner and hone’s history that was shared in the welcome binder.
My host was very thoughtful and generous with the home. I hope to bring my family back so they can experience this authentic, well appointed cottage.
