I say at 10-12 VRBOs a year and this might be the best one I've stayed at! Newly renovated, well appointed, phenomenal view. I can't recommend this place enough.
We had a great long weekend in Palisade! The place is incredibly spacious and well decorated. It’s also in a great location- just a quick drive to local wineries and hiking trails. Guests should be aware that the priority is up a hilly gravel road and is best for higher clearance and AWD vehicles.
This was a wonderful place to stay while visiting Palisade. The house is at the top of the hill with amazing views, and was extremely private. It is up a dirt road but is a great place to stay if you want to be secluded. We used the fire pit and the grill, both were in great condition. We really appreciated the filtered water at the sink! All the appliances were in great condition which was wonderful because we cooked every day.
The Bluff House offers an excellent location that is private, with incredible breathtaking views and abundant wildlife. Minutes from the town of Palisade which offers fresh produce, great restaurants, a hometown grocery store, lots of wineries, a distillery and so much more. Also close to all that Grand Junction has to offer, including The National Monument, hiking and biking trails. The house exceeds expectations in every way, with thoughtful details and amenities. The property is clean, well-equipped, wonderfully decorated and spacious. The property manager, Melissa, is responsive and helpful. I can’t say enough about this awesome property and the hosts that have made this available for others to enjoy. Highly recommended for a memorable stay.
Excellent location. It is private with wonderful views. Lots of wildlife visits the property such as deer and black bears. Lots of very nice hiking trails in the area and minutes alway from town where there are great restaurants and a grocery store. Grocery store has a good selection for food for grilling with the propane grill at the house.
All we can hope for when renting a property is that it matches the description. If it exceeds the description in just one aspect, that's a home run. Which is why the Bluff House is GRAND SLAM! It exceeds by every, single measure. Love the house. Love the location. Love the owners. Goes into my "Best Of" VRBO experiences!
All previous reviews were spot on. The beauty of the surrounding mesas was to die for, I couldn’t stop standing at the dining room window and gazing out all the time, it really was breathtaking. I had searched many properties that were smaller and closer to town for our quick trip here, even though this place was way too big for just us two, it was way worth it. Will stay again and hopefully with more people!
We can't say enough wonderful things about this place. It's such an amazing gem that we stumbled upon and will be continuing to come back to when we visit the area. The view is INCREDIBLE! The house is comfortable and spacious and every little detail was thought about. There are so many extras like bath soaks, candles, wonderful smelling soap, beautiful artwork etc. that most places don't have and it's such a nice touch. We had a full moon while we were there and it made for such a beautiful setting my the campfire and grilling. We would HIGHLY recommend this place. It's a dream.
The property looks exactly like the photos! The view is amazing and the house is very clean and stocked with many conveniences. The property manager, Melissa, promptly answered any question I had. I will stay here again when I get back to Palisade.
Very clean, remodeled home with thoughtful amenities and beautiful views!

The Bluff House was everything we could have asked for and more. Enjoying your coffee in the morning with a view to enjoying the stars at night. Everything was perfect and the house was spectacular! Will be staying here again and again!
Wonderful property on a bluff above the Colorado River. Be sure to search it out in the daylight on your arrival day. Good home base for enjoying the fruits and wine of the western slope and a trip thru the Colorado National Monument.
The pictures don’t do this place justice! It was beautiful, sparkling clean and the views are fantastic! It is so peaceful at the top of the hill! Would 100% stay here again and recommend d to friends!
Fabulous property for a quiet stay. Great views during the day and exceptional at night. We did a lot of star gazing and photography. The house is beautiful, plenty of room, and has almost anything you could need. Definitely will stay again and recommended to family!
This is a wonderful home. We loved our stay here. The view is amazing, the home is spotless and well equipped. There is room for all to spread out. It was perfect for our family. We were in town for a family reunion. Palisade is a great little town, and this home helped make the reunion a week to remember. Thank you to Melissa for her quick response to any question we had.
The property was gorgeous! The views were just incredible and the home itself was beautifully decorated had everything you could possibly need. The host was so quick and kind with all communication. I will, without a doubt, stay here again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This is our second time staying here at the bluff house and we will be staying here again! The views are absolutely stunning! It is a great place. Clean and well maintained. Melissa was great at communicating. We did not have any problems whatsoever throughout our stay. We had all the necessities. I would highly recommend this great house in beautiful Colorado!
Had a wonderful relaxing time. The property is gorgeous and isolated with no one around to disrupt quiet time. Highly recommend and will be a returning client.
We spent a long weekend exploring Palisade and Bluff House was the perfect base camp for our family. The house is lovely and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay.
House was perfect! Great, secluded location with spectacular views. House is well appointed and clean!
So many winery options we didn't have time to visit all, a return visit is a must!
This place is so fantastic. Close to town, wineries and other attractions but has the feel of a secluded place. The place itself is incredibly nice and spacious. We had great communication with the host and it really was a 5 star stay. We look forward to visiting again!
We had the greatest stay at bluff house! The views were incredible! The listing should add photos of those views! We loved the seclusion. The house was clean, new, fresh and very homey. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will be coming back again next year!
The house was beautiful and the views were stunning. Quiet location and the house had everything we needed. Would love to stay here again!

Hi all and welcome! We are excited to be apart of the Vrbo community. My Husband and I have a passion for the West and during our travels came across the amazing town of Palisade. We fell in love with the Grand Valley and started spending more and more time in Palisade leading to the purchase of the Bluff House. We hope you enjoy our Home and love it as much as we do.
