Mountain Bike Hotel in Fruita – Balanced Rock Inn
Downtown Fruita inn with a bike wash and tool station, minutes from the desert trails
About
Balanced Rock Inn is a small inn in downtown Fruita, Colorado, and a natural choice if you are looking for a Mountain Bike Hotel in Fruita. Fruita is one of the best-known riding towns in the West, and the inn puts you a short walk from bike shops, cafes and breweries, with the desert singletrack just minutes away by car.
Bike facilities
The inn has a bike wash and tool station, so you can hose off the desert dust and make quick adjustments after a ride. Limited trailer parking is available too, but the inn asks guests to call ahead to reserve a spot. There is no bike rental on site, so riders without their own bikes should book with one of the shops in town.
Trails nearby
The inn describes the trails as minutes away. That covers the flowy, fast singletrack of the North Fruita Desert (18 Road) and the technical rimrock riding of the Kokopelli trail system along the Colorado River. Grand Junction, with the Lunch Loops, is about 20 minutes away.
Good to know
Rates are shown during booking, and the inn recommends booking direct through its own website. Fruita gets busy in spring and fall, which are the prime riding seasons, so book early if you plan to visit around the Fruita Fat Tire Festival weekend or other peak dates.
