Bowman's Landing Spring House on the Santa Fe River

A very fun property with lots to do. There were canoes, bikes, corn hole available. The property manager, Jesse, was AMAZING with showing us the ropes. He even smoked our ribs for us! Dog friendly, kid friendly. We had a great time and will be back!

What a perfect location if you want beautiful scenery quiet River rushing by and plenty of nature to behold. Jesse and his wife Taylor were immediately welcoming. And Jesse goes the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need. We appreciated him knowing so much about the area and helping us with where to kayak and where to go tubing. Highly recommend.

Family vacation

Quick summary of my experience. Roaches in the home and bedrooms. Oven would not work properly and the coffee machine was broken. Property is quiet and peaceful but the owner/property manager has not responded to my direct communication outlining my concerns and experience. Caution to potential renters. You could have a terrible experience and the management will completely blow you off. I wish you the best.

Above and beyond our expectations! We'll definitely be back!

It was absolutely Mr. Joe and Miss NANCY and Mr. Jesse are incredible made me feel like I was at home. It’s been the best vacation I have been in a long time I want to thank all this stuff.

The Good: This property is well - loved, and the hosts were very accommodating. It is so rare to find a place on a river that doesn't look straight into a whole neighborhood of riverfront property. This place was peaceful and beautiful in a very authentic, unfussy way. There were people around, but it was quiet and never felt crowded. Loved sitting on the front porch and watching my kids splash in the river. Close to a lot of spring destinations. The Not So Good: It says it is air- conditioned, but that is a bit of a stretch. There are free-standing portable ACs in each room, which only work to a certain extent, and cannot work all at once without overloading the electric system of this old cabin. We were only able to use two of the three bedrooms because of this for the duration of our stay. If you are finicky about heat and humidity, this is not a property you want to visit between May and September. The listing says a 'playground' - There is one tree swing. It is a fabulous tree swing. But it is just a tree swing. The listing said the property came with a kayak. There was evidence that this had once existed, but none to be seen. On the other hand, we were offered bicycles, which were not listed. Unfortunately, not really a good place for bike riding. Overall: It is charming. If charming is what you want, and flexible is what you are, this is a great find. Probably AMAZING in spring and fall. If you want a more modern experience, this isn't it.

The host was very helpful and responsive. Good location if you’re wanting to go to several springs.

Stay was amazing, place was quiet and clean. The manager were so nice and attentive. Was so peaceful. We will definitely come again.

We really had a great time at this property and would love to stay again.

This was exactly what we were looking for. Very quiet. Nature is all over the place.
