We had an excellent stay at the River City Hideaway! The property manager provided great instructions and overall communication. The home was roomy, clean and in a great location for our needs. We've been coming to Grand Junction for quite a few years and I wish we had found this property sooner!

Property was as described. Neighborhood was quiet. Close to CMU, so it was easy to meet up with our son. Nice to be able to cook him a few meals.

This was a perfect location. Very clean!
We loved this sweet rental. I know the outside grassy area needs work, but we spent more time inside and off exploring the area so this was not an issue for us! We absolutely loved how cute this place was. We would definitely recommend it and rent it again!
