Escape to the Santa Fe River.

Where the river bends, the light softens and time slows — you can let go. An invitation to unwind and reconnect with nature, friends & family… and yourself. Enjoy thoughtful detail and curated experiences so you’ll feel relaxed & rejuvenated.

Experience unique outdoor adventures, wellness stations, soak in the swim spa… or just relax and move at your own pace. And there are plenty of activities in the area, including world-renowned natural springs, canyon zip lines, historic downtown markets and more.

Come discover your flow at Havens on the Santa Fe. A stay that will restore your mind and body.

A clear river flowing through a forest with tall trees and green foliage under a blue sky.

Your haven awaits.

Located on three acres, guests will enjoy a private wooded retreat, bordering the Santa Fe River and the Fort White Environmental Preserve, with Deer and Turkey strolling through daily.

You’ll also feel warm and cozy in our handcrafted Amish cabin—an inviting sanctuary with four bedrooms, a loft, two full baths, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a sweeping porch overlooking the river, along with a fire pit, 24’ pool spa, private beach and gazebo.

Take a walk down the hillside to the river’s edge to enjoy a year-round comfortable spring-fed river, with kayaks and canoes to enjoy at your leisure. Sit and relax on the tree hammock to enjoy the river view or gaze up at the stars. And the cozy fire pit will keep activities going into the night, along with a massive 26’ bell tent with an additional sleeping area and plenty of room to spread out.

It’s the perfect retreat for multiple families or small groups, up to 11 guests, to unwind, reconnect, and let the river restore your rhythm.

And of course… pets are always welcome.

So much to do…. or not do. It’s your FLOW

Resting on lands that have held the footprints and spirit of Native Americans, Havens on the Santa Fe honors this heritage with a series of wellness stations for guests to reflect and feel present.

Ancient philosophy teaches us that you don't need to add anything to become whole; instead, what is already present reveals itself. Like a seed pushing through soil or a butterfly easing out of its chrysalis, transformation unfolds without force.

Modern times teach the opposite - fix, optimize, and perform. We pile roles, strategies and frantic tactics over our true nature, mistaking adaptation for authenticity and ceaseless motion for meaningful being and true purpose.

Awakening the River Within wellness stations are to let what is real emerge naturally, in its own time.

Awaken the River within.
