About Santa Rosa

Set along the Pecos River in eastern New Mexico, Santa Rosa feels like an oasis in the high desert. The town built its identity around Route 66 and its famous Blue Hole, a crystal-clear spring that brings scuba divers and swimmers from all over. Life here moves at an easy, small-town pace, with vintage roadside diners, quiet neighborhoods, and plenty of natural lakes for fishing or cooling off under the open southwestern sky.
