LIVING IN SANTA FE

Living in Santa Fe is a little bit like being on a cruise ship; something for everyone!

For some, the thousands of acres of trails to hike and bike is the freedom they seek. Santa Fe has all types of trails through Indian ruins,  desert lands and mountain peaks surround by trees peering out to endless views as far as the eyes can see.

For others it is having a ski resort in our backyard. Ski Santa Fe, located 16 miles from the Plaza at Santa Fe, boast 7 lifts and a plethora of runs for the beginner, intermediate and expert alike. The resort features a restaurant up the slopes where you can enjoy views from the outside grill or snuggled inside next to the roaring fire while sipping your favorite spiked coffee.

Artists, drawn by the beauty from the natural landscapes to the magnificent light have been flocking to Santa Fe for centuries making Santa Fe the second largest art market in the nation. From Canyon road to galleries around the Plaza you will discover contemporary to native works.

Perhaps your tastes run more culinary. If so you will be tantalized by world class restaurants in charming adobe settings while savoring cuisine spiced with green chile in cozy atmospheres that will ease the spirit.

To begin or end your day, there are many unique settings for the luxurious spa experience, from first class resorts in the heart of Santa Fe to Japanese spa settings nestled in the mountains. Whatever your pleasure, you will find a venue to release your tensions.

With a true four seasons, Santa Fe will charm you year round with the hustle and bustle of her Indian, Spanish and Folk art markets or gently with her magnificent mountain views while enjoying a glass of wine as the sun gently sets displaying a brilliant rainbow of colors.

Whatever your pleasure, let yourself discover the warmth of Santa and surrender to her essence.

Find your way to Hwy 599 (Santa Fe Relief Route.) NOTE:  for those of you coming from Albuquerque and other points south, construction of the new Railrunner station at the Intersection of I-25 and Hwy 599 may force you to make a detour.  Just follow the well-marked signs to get onto Hwy 599 NORTH.

About 7 miles from the intersection with Hwys 84/285 [if coming from the north], or 5½ miles from the intersection with I-25 [if coming from the south], you will take the Caja del Rio exit from Hwy 599; you will be going west.

Go about 50 yards to the west frontage road.  Turn left (south), and go 1 mile to Caja del Rio Road.

Turn right onto Caja del Rio.  Go 3 miles, past the Animal Shelter, football/soccer fields, and Marty Sanchez Golf Course gate.

Turn right onto Camino de Rey, and then almost immediately right again onto Avenida de Mercedes.  There will be a rainbow flag at our driveway.

Bring food to share, something to drink [beer, wine, soft drinks only], and SUNSHINE!
