Welcome to Desert Rose, your ultimate hunter’s, adventurer’s, and hiker’s paradise! Nestled on 23 acres of pristine desert, this luxurious 4-bedroom retreat is designed for those seeking both rugged outdoor thrills and upscale comfort. Whether you’re here to ride the trails, explore the canyons, or relax in pure luxury, Desert Rose is the perfect base for your next great escape.
The open-concept design and large windows flood the home with natural light, showcasing the stunning desert views from every room. The master suite offers a private spa-like experience with a soaking tub and an oversized walk-in shower. Need a moment of relaxation before or after your day of adventure? Start your mornings at the coffee bar and enjoy the beauty that surrounds you. Outside, the property features a custom putting green for some lighthearted competition and endless possibilities for outdoor fun.
Adventure Awaits Right From Your Doorstep: Bring your ATVs, dirt bikes, or off-road vehicles—Desert Rose is set up perfectly for those who love to hit the trails. With endless parking for trailers and haulers, you can bring all your toys! Bean Ranch Road, just a short ride west, leads directly to the awe-inspiring Dominguez-Escalante Canyon and miles upon miles of BLM riding and hiking trails. This is the ultimate playground for outdoor enthusiasts, offering rugged terrain for off-road adventures, hiking, and even wildlife viewing. The vast desert and canyons provide the perfect backdrop for adrenaline-filled days of exploration.
Camp Under the Stars: For families, especially kids, Desert Rose offers a unique opportunity to embrace the outdoors fully. We encourage you to set up tents and camp under the clear desert skies. With so much space and wide-open vistas, it’s the perfect spot for stargazing and creating memories around the campfire. You’ll love the fire pit area where, after a long day of adventure, you can sit back, roast marshmallows, and listen to the haunting calls of coyotes while the stars shine brightly above.
Wildlife at Your Fingertips: Nature lovers and hunters will be captivated by the abundance of wildlife that frequents the property. Watch as antelope, deer, and other wildlife pass through right from the comfort of the back patio. For hunters, the nearby Uncompahgre National Forest and Lands End Road offer prime hunting grounds just 30 minutes away. It’s the best of both worlds—wild, unspoiled nature, just a short distance from your luxury base.
Endless Outdoor Opportunities: If you love water adventures, you’re in luck! The Colorado and Gunnison rivers are just a short drive away, offering kayaking, boating, and fishing opportunities. Whether you’re hiking the trails, paddling through scenic rivers, or scouting for the perfect hunting spot, Desert Rose is your gateway to nature’s bounty. Hikers will revel in the proximity to the stunning vistas and challenging terrain of the Colorado Mesa and Dominguez-Escalante Canyon.
Close to Town, Yet Worlds Away: Despite the feeling of total seclusion, Desert Rose offers convenient access to local amenities. You’re just 20 minutes from downtown Grand Junction and Palisade, where you can explore local wineries, shops, and restaurants. Looking to venture a bit further? Delta, Colorado, is only 30 minutes away. After your day of adventure, unwind with a visit to the local favorite bakery, Sweet Kiwi, or stock up on supplies from nearby liquor and grocery stores.
The Perfect Blend of Luxury and Adventure: Whether you’re here for a luxurious getaway, an outdoor adventure, or a hunting trip, Desert Rose is the ultimate escape. Relax on the back patio, watch the wildlife roam, and let the desert serenade you with its wild beauty. Bring your ATVs, your tents, your boats, and your hiking boots—Desert Rose offers endless possibilities for exploration and relaxation. From riding the trails to hunting the mountains and everything in between, this desert retreat has it all.
Come experience the perfect balance of nature, adventure, and luxury at Desert Rose—your next unforgettable escape awaits!
