About this house rental

Thimble Rock Point, located in the heart of the Unaweep Canyon. If you listen close this sacred ground still echoes footsteps of the past. At first glance it is raw and rugged, a place where wildlife still roam free and skies stretch beyond the horizon. But it is also a place of calm. Here the natural world dominates in every direction. The property consists of 25 private acres. Within that area we currently offer (2) exclusive lodging experiences. Thimble Rock Point & Tabeguache Camp.



Getting there: Located just Southwest of Grand Junction. If you're traveling by car, Colorado state highways are well maintained year-round. Even so, we encourage travelers to check road conditions (CDOT) in advance for possible delays or closures. Snow plows are quick to respond to winter storms. However from November thru March all wheel drive or 4wd is required to access the A-frame.  



The closest Airport is in Grand Junction, CO.  Grand Junction Regional Airport, just 37 miles away. Another option guests continue to find low fares is Montrose Regional Airport



What is Thimble Rock? Thimble Rock is a 1200' monolith that rises from the canyon floor (that's the equivalent height of the Empire State building). It is the star of the show and you can't miss this behemoth with views from the A-frame, aka Thimble Rock Point. Composed mostly of granite this enormous out cropping is the most impressive monolith in the Unaweep Canyon.  

 Our space was built for the traveler who seeks more than shelter but an experience, the magic at Thimble Rock will evoke feelings of nostalgia, romance and the yearning to explore. Here you will be surrounded by public lands. The area offers a host of nearby activities with accommodations designed for multi-day stays. There is ample parking adjacent to the A-frame and enough room for full size vehicles to park and turn around. Trailers are NOT allowed. My interaction with guests is schedule dependent. However I typically make myself scarce unless I'm needed. In which case I do my best to always be available by phone. In addition to the resources found on our site you will find a house manual at the onsite for specific operations or instructions.

As you might have guessed the neighborhood is quite rural. But within our fences you'll find well mark roads. Each will lead to its respective lodging site. You can expect to see others on these roads, but your privacy is important, we have intentionally designed there to be distance between every site.

The view and setting were as magical as the web description. Our cat particularly enjoyed being able to watch hummingbirds and chipmunks at eye level from the side windows.The host was excellent and coordinated work he was doing elsewhere on the property so that we were not disturbed.

Loved this cabin! Beautiful place. Quiet and secluded. Exactly what we needed. Amazing place to check out and get away from it all. Looking forward to going back someday.

Excellent stay! The owner had great communication, both before and during the rental. It is in a really beautiful place with awesome views, well appointed, comfy beds and great extra touches to enhance the experience. I wanted to stay longer!

My husband and I and two boys, ages 7 & 8, stayed here for 3 nights in July. What a perfect stay it was. The boys were able to explore the mountain the property is on, we grabbed all our groceries before arriving so we didn't have to leave. Everything needed to cook is in the kitchen. The gas grill was great for quick grilling. The scenery is just stunning, especially at sunrise. The only thing that troubled us a tiny bit is the a/c unit being over one of the beds. If the a/c is needed and turned on at night, it makes it really really cold for the bed that it's over. But the weather here is really nice in the evenings so it's not necessary to turn on a/c but we are from Houston and the blankets were a but thick for us. We will most definitely stay here again if we come back to this side of CO!
