Just down the road, called, RED ROOT , next to the Food Co-op on Rio Grande Blvd. Our Space is in the heart of the Griegos Neighborhood , A very old style , old world area. Safe area. Same Hispanic families have lived here since 1712, no joke, that is real. Rural feel for an urban / suburban setting , space space, off street parking. We are NOT an RV park nor are we a " camp ground " . We Are an Organic Garden ( Urban Permaculture ) that you can stay inside a magical, growing goodness space . This place is very, very private . The parking area is not private . Our road is dead end , very low traffic . The garden wall around the whole tent area has a 6 foot tall , very thick wall , and trees , surrounding every thing. There is a forest and pond for ducks behind the garden . Our place is for Wildlife, to be fed, and given water and safe space to raise young.

Tent 1633
My partner and I had a lovely stay. Ernesto greeted us when we arrived and showed us around. Anytime we had any questions, he was happy to answer. We came for the Balloon Fiesta and found it pretty easy to get up for the early mornings and get ready for the day. The only issue we really had during our stay was all the mosquitoes hanging out in garden area but it was still pretty warm during the day so it made sense and it was no problem once inside our tent. Thanks!

Healing on the Rio Grande
An oasis for weary travellers
Michaela and Ernesto are seasoned hosts, and they offered a comfortable and beautiful space with ease and grace! We are so grateful to them for the ways in which they helped us to feel at home. The gardens really are magical—an oasis in a desert city. They share in their amenities with a casual friendliness (bathroom, indoor space, garden hang-out areas.) These folks are the real deal, I would recommend this as a lovely, calm, and friendly place to stay for any weary traveller.

Healing on the Rio Grande
Peaceful garden in ABQ.
We loved it here! The hosts are especially kind and welcoming, and the garden is beautiful. We picked some fresh rosemary and sage to add to our dinner! We had plenty of space for our 4-person tent, and a lovely and colorful outdoor lounging and dining area where we set up our propane stove to prepare and eat dinner. Ernesto greeted us warmly when we arrived and showed us where we could park our car, which was right out front of the house so we could easily make trips back and forth from the car to the gated and walled yard where we set up our tent. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Having access to a clean indoor bathroom is so nice after being on the road. This space is carefully curated to provide a safe, affordable option for travelers to stay within Albuquerque, in an environment that truly feels life-nourishing. We had the privacy we needed, while also having pleasant interactions with the host and another guest. If you are gardeners like we are, you will come away feeling inspired!
