  IN LOVE WITH BED & BREAKFASTS By Linda DuVal
Several B&Bs are tucked into the Grand Valley landscape, all perfect for a fall getaway that rekindles the romance. The Royal Treatment Five spacious suites pamper guests at Castle Creek Bed-and-Breakfast, which offers 500-square-foot rooms, king beds, private baths with jet tubs, and private outside entrances. "We put in everything we like when we travel," says LeeAnn Unfred, who opened the inn in 2004 with husband Ron. Try the spa package (with in-room massages) or the anniversary package (with dinner for two). Enjoy the breakfast buffet with other guests, take a plate to your room or sit on the deck and listen to the creek. Among the Vineyards Ever want to stay in a vineyard? The Chateau at Two Rivers Winery, built in 2002, has 10 elegantly appointed rooms and a broad veranda, overlooking the vines, where you can enjoy your morning coffee and sample the buffet. In the wine-tasting room, sample the vineyard's award-winning vintages before buying a souvenir bottle. Fall is a great time to come because you can see the wine being made. Views & Vows Los Altos Bed and Breakfast sits on a hill overlooking the Grand Valley, thus its name and its appeal. It feels far removed from the city, says Young Ja
Centrally Located Positioned near the middle of the valley, The Bookcliffs Bed and Breakfast is within minutes of hiking, biking, fishing, climbing, and just about any other activity the Grand Junction area has to offer. Be sure to relax on the front porch at this three-room B&B and enjoy gorgeous views of the Bookcliffs Mountain Range, which is especially striking at dawn or dusk. Lasting memories are sure to be created during a stay at the Bookcliffs B&B. Starry Nights Near the Colorado River in Palisade, Vistas and Vineyards has its own orchards and vineyard, as well as views of the dramatic Book Cliffs. Four guest rooms – with queen or king beds and private baths – feature a relaxed décor with an accent on local arts and crafts. Weekdays, they serve an expanded continental breakfast, and weekends bring out the gourmet dishes. Autumn nights are perfect for relaxing on the deck, enjoying the crisp, cool air and stargazing.
