David was an incredible host — communicative, accommodating, and genuinely lovely from start to finish.
Rosie herself was a beautiful experience: darling, quaint, clean, and the view was beyond anything I expected. Everything matched the listing. One tip (provided by David) — bring ice if you need to keep anything refrigerated, and store food properly in the fridge, since ants will find a way in! The location is also super close to downtown Santa Fe, and the recommendations in the welcome binder were genuinely useful.
The location was a little tricky to find at first — heads up that the address for driving into the guest driveway is different from the main address (David provides both, so just make sure you’re using the right one). He was quick to help me find my way when I got turned around.
Take his advice and arrive before dark — the driveway has some rocky, dipping terrain that’s much easier to navigate in daylight, and parking is on a slight rocky decline. It’s also easier to find your way to the bathroom and showers if you check in while it’s still light out. There are lights set up in front of the RV, which is great, but it does get very dark and the path to the restrooms is dark (a flashlight is provided).
As a solo female traveler on a long road trip, I felt very safe — that mattered a lot to me.
I loved it so much I ended up staying an extra night.
David, you’re great, and what you’ve built here is something special. Thank you!
