Spirit Traveler Earthship with Meditation Room | RV Rental in Tres Piedras

Welcome to the Spirit Traveler Earthship in Northern New Mexico!
Nestled in New Mexico's high desert, the Spirit Traveler awaits your arrival. Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure or a much-deserved retreat, this home is it! Forty minutes to Taos Ski Valley, 35 min to Ojo Caliente (Hot Springs), 20 min to Taos and only 3 miles to the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. Named one of Lonely Planet's top 10 eco-stays in the world.
An Earthship, which Lonely Planet describes as "equal parts Gaudi masterpiece and Dr. Seuss whimsy", offers accommodations that are completely off-grid. Built from recycled materials, the home is powered by solar panels, rain and snow-collecting cisterns and a greenhouse for self-sufficiency.
Spirit Traveler provides a rustic, private and romantic setting with 14 ft vega ceilings, concrete floors and plenty of space to unwind and regenerate. I've provided as many amenities as possible given the solar power system recommendations (well, except for the Keurig. I snuck that one in there). This Global model features two "airlock" rooms at each end for the entrance. This allows entry w/o sacrificing the inner temperature. You will find one of the rooms is also for yoga, meditation, prayer and inner reflection. Like most models, the front, south-facing room is a greenhouse featuring interesting plants such as Snake plant, Aloe Vera, Wandering Jew (Tradescantia), Oregano, Agave attenuata from La Jolla, a baby olive tree and a Plumeria. The living, dining room and kitchen are open making it easy for you to cook while visiting with your group or lending plenty of space to dance your worries away by way of a nice sound system. You will have a large, pull-out couch, chairs, stools and dining chairs; the dining table seats 4. The refrigerator and stove are specific for off-grid living but you don't need to sacrifice your inner chef. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need to prepare gourmet meals. Enjoy a solid night's sleep in a comfy queen bed. A large, custom-built closet resides at the back of the bedroom giving plenty of room for clothing and gear. All the rooms are bright, airy and uplifting. It's a peaceful experience and the stars are even visible from inside, waiting for you to partake in that "ah" moment.
The door is on a keypad with a code that resets for each guest. This earthship is a private home with a private back yard space.
Please contact me via airbnb. I'm pretty fast at responding unless it's sleeping time. I have people in the community that can assist if there's an issue so please LMK asap rather than tell me after your stay. I want you to have the best experience possible.
Situated in the Greater World Community, this 600+ acres neighborhood is very quiet, private and peaceful. It's safe and people are friendly when met with a smile.
I'm new to this way of life . . . solar energy, snow/rain catchment, grey water, indoor greenhouse and best of all, no utility bills. I came to my new home just like any new guest would - a completely different yet exciting experience. My hope is to prepare my guests far better than I received. I lived here for about a year and have learned a lot allowing me to share the experience with you.
*Winters can bring lots of snow to Northern New Mexico so please be prepared with an adequate vehicle and clothing. Roads are not plowed so make sure to have an adequate vehicle. The altitude (approx 7,700 ft) and dry weather can also cause dehydration so please stay hydrated as much as possible, limit alcohol consumption and take it easy your first day to acclimate and avoid altitude sickness. *
It is pitch black here at night, no street lights, making it a challenge to find any place out here. I will give the best details on how to get here but it is suggested to arrive in daylight. I also suggest driving highway 522 north in daylight; there are lots of deer along that road.
There is a no pet policy. Please, you do not need to ask. We appreciate that there are many great pets but we don't make exceptions. Thank you for understanding.
The view from the Earthship has a privacy wall therefore there is no view of the mountains from inside. It is a short walk to view the mountains and the entire mesa valley.
Just informed the TV isn't working well. I plan to buy a new TV and bring it down the first week in December. Until then, I would not count on the TV.
