Driveway parking area was just big enough for our 21 foot van. Very pleasant hosts. Quiet neighborhood and good recommendations for nearby restaurant.

Wonderful hosts
Wonderful hosts and excellent nights sleep! I came through Albuquerque in February and it was snowing..The home was cozy and warm from the welcoming fire, freshly built in the fireplace. The king size bed is a firm memory foam, and probably the best nights sleep I’ve had in a long time. Both Michaela and Ernesto have opened their home in a way that makes it feel like you’re home too. Everything was very easy from parking, communication, and accommodations. Thank you both for the wonderful stay!

We arrived tired and worn out and Ernesto was gracious and understanding. The hot showers were rejuvenating and he and Michaela were so welcoming. They helped with recommendations and directions for places to eat and things to do. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone stopping in Albuquerque.

Extremely kind owners in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Thanks for opening up your driveway and home to us. The homemade cookies were an extra bonus.

This stay over was just fine- level driveway to park our van, quiet street, and gracious host. Another camper pulled in minutes after we arrived and we had a good chinwag with them. Got out early onto surprisingly big busy morning traffic on I-40.

This trip and my stay at Healing on the Rio Grande was my partner’s and I first Hipcamp experience. We definitely will be using it again. We traveled in a camper van and booked the driveway spot. It was effortless. Ernesto was a kind host, the gardens were beautiful and peaceful, and the shared bathroom was clean and pretty much always accessible. We felt both at home and like we were camping on our on spot. This location is close to old town, plenty of places to eat (or have delivered), and easy navigation to all sites. We loved it!

Welcoming & Peaceful Stay in ABQ
Michaela and Ernesto were two of my favorite hosts I’ve had the pleasure with staying with while traveling. Their home and outdoor garden areas are beautiful and we’ll set-up for travelers, whether you’re camping or staying in your car or van. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, answering just about all my questions before I needed to ask, and provided some great tips on where to eat and what to do in Albuquerque. I recommend staying here to anyone looking for a safe, quiet and peaceful place to rest and recharge during your stay in Albuquerque.

Camping with hummingbird!
Michaela and Ernesto have a wonderful and unique property. They transformed their suburban pad into a wildlife sanctuary with visitor camping. While I was staying there, I saw a hummingbird near my tent. Michaela and Ernesto are warm and hospitable and allow visitors access to their house for showering, making coffee, and conversation. Thank you Michaela and Ernesto! Their place is a wonderful resource in Albuquerque, especially for me as a solo traveler.

Michaela's garden was a great motel alternative in Abq. The garden itself is lovely and access to the bathroom inside the house was a big plus! Just an fyi, the two camping spots sit along the side of the garden/house so can't accommodate big tents. All in all, a comfy, safe experience :)

Camping in our teardrop.
We enjoyed our stay! Good location, nice host, and lovely garden. Use of the house bathroom / shower a bonus. Electric plug-in would be nice for the price. But we still managed fine, and would stay again.

Beautiful and cozy place
Had a great stay! The wind was super intense out, so they offered the room for an extra fee. Was grateful to have a cozy place where my dog could stay too. Thanks so much!!

Michaela was a wonderful host with a more than accommodating area to camp. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking to setup camp in Albuquerque. There is a quaint garden to sit and relax as well as a nice pad on which to set your tent up on.

Michaela's spot has wonderful ambience. I loved all of the art and plants. At night, the soft glow of the solar lights and the gentle song of the windchimes was a soothing lullaby. Be sure to bring your own campstove to heat food or boil water. Their in-house restroom is available for use, and is very clean. They are friendly and communicative hosts.

A wonderful stay in Albuquerque!
Michaela and Ernesto were very welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed camping at their home. They have a lovely outdoor space for campers with plenty of seating, lush gardens and beautiful art. The bathroom (shower and toilet) are available at any time and was clean. They were very quick to approve our stay when our previous reservation was cancelled at the last minute due to the host being ill (thank you again!!), and they were helpful with providing information about scenic destinations around New Mexico. I would definitely stay with them again, and it would feel like visiting friends. I would also feel comfortable staying with them as a solo female traveler.

Very warm and welcoming place! The tent spot is in a private corner of the hosts’ Amazing and eclectic backyard that is obviously well-loved. Vehicle camping is in the driveway. Full use of the home’s kitchen and bathroom. The hosts thoroughly enjoy engaging with their guests and make you feel right at home.
