Stayed Mar 9, 2026You will feel welcome and comfortable in this beautiful home away from home.The house is lovely and clean. The location is perfect, especially if you enjoy walking to town. The host's special touches are obvious everywhere you look. The backyard is the perfect place to sip your morning coffee and/or enjoy a cozy evening fire. We are so happy we chose the Sunshine Cottage and I am sure you will be too.

Stayed Nov 26, 2025The furnace is not functioning properly. The house was cold on each of the first two mornings, no matter how we tried to adjust and turn on/ off the unit. It did seem to come on later in the day, and then also on the third morning. But even then it was clear that something was not quite right with the furnace. Everything else was OK, but the furnace situation was a big detraction.

Stayed Oct 7, 2025Stop looking around ! This property has a five star rating for good reason. If it is in your price range and in the area you are looking for you won't find anything better. This is the best VRBO property we have stayed at in the 10 years we have been booking with them. Great host. Prompt response. Great area nice and quiet. Very well supplied. You can tell this property is well maintained, updated, and cared for. Had everything we needed and more. Nice big fenced backyard to enjoy. Stayed for 7 nights here. Would stay here again without question. Thanks so much to our host here. If the review helped you decide to stay have a great time !

Stayed Jun 18, 2025This was a 2 couples trip where we were making a stop I Grand Junction to go to the national park and surrounding areas. We truly enjoyed our stay! The place had what we needed and the updates to the house really makes it a comfortable place. We loved how close it was to downtown. We also found it easy to venture to the surrounding areas. Our host was great to respond and made us feel welcomed. Finally, in the evenings we enjoyed sitting out back and visiting. For us everything was spot on and we would stay here again.

Stayed Jun 11, 2025A lovely, well decorated house in a great location. We only stayed 3 nights and I wish we had stayed longer. The quality of everything in the house was above expected. Although we were only 2 people, it would also be good for 2 couples as the master has an ensuite BR and the other bedroom and bathroom are completely separate. It is in an area of older homes but is very modern on the inside.

Stayed May 6, 2025This is an awesome place and one that we definitely have on our radar for a future visit. Clean, well appointed, nice kitchen and cute dining area. Loved the sitting area in the back yard - nicely landscaped and decorated. Great location with easy access to town and Colorado National Monument. All in all, a very nice stay. The ONLY reason for the communication ding was that I would have liked to have a phone number where I could have reached out directly. If we would have had a problem with access to the house, we would have had no way to get in touch with the owner short of finding a cafe with internet access where we could have used a laptop for VRBO access. Other than that very small item, the place was perfect!

Stayed Apr 15, 2025Sunshine Cottage was just perfect for our two couples, as a getaway for our visit to Grand Junction and Colorado National Monument! The house has great decorating touches and is well stocked and nicely furnished, with an easy -to -use kitchen and a great backyard area with a pergola and fire pit. We used both on the evenings we spent there, as we sipped our wine (Jana leaves some for guests) after enjoying fabulous hikes through the area. Jana was a wonderfully communicative and responsive hostess, too. I highly recommend Sunshine Cottage for your next vacation in the area!
