The Inn and Spa at Loretto-The Neighborhoods of Santa Fe, New Mexico

It was the winter of 1986 when I first came to Santa Fe. I stared in fascination at one of New Mexico’s most photographed buildings, The Inn and Spa at Loretto,  an architectural recreation of the Taos Pueblo.   One of my first solo engagements was in its Ballroom, where I performed six nights a week. The unique feeling of Santa Fe, and the reason I decided to live here, can be traced to the magic which exudes from the life and soul of the city and the beauty of this hotel.  Today, the remodeled and exquisite boutique hotel offers an endless variety of luxurious amenities.   The Executive Chef in the hotel’s Luminaria Restaurant, Brian Cooper, knows that people who love food, love Santa Fe. In the evenings you can sit around the quivering fire in the lobby and listen to the wonderful music of singer/guitarist Matthew Andre. Stefan Huber is the General Manager.  To see what I’m raving about be sure to take a look: The Inn and Spa at Loretto

Upper Canyon Road – The Neighborhoods of Santa Fe, New Mexico

randall-davy-house2 The sky shines with an evening sun that turns the Sangre de Cristo (Blood of Christ) Mountains the color of watermelon. Tonia and I were married in the gardens of the Randall Davy Audubon Center at the end of Upper Canyon Road.  12 years later our son, Nick, became a camp councilor there. Fed by the snowmelt, three reservoirs serve as some of the city’s drinking water and spill into the Santa Fe River. Just 3 miles from the Santa Fe Plaza and bordering the Santa Fe National Forest is a 190 acre urban preserve run by the Nature ConservancyWillow trees and cottonwoods, beaver and birds paint the landscape along the trailhead of the 20-mile Dale Ball Hiking Trail.  A series of ponds and wetlands make this neighborhood first choice for our family’s regular hikes.

8 Camino Pequeno, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501

by Michael Umphrey on February 21, 2009

Price – $1,300,000  MLS# 904490 

Listen to the crackle of embers from the stone fireplace and the murmur of the silver threads of water flowing from the acequia and the Santa Fe River.  Camino Pequeno is arguably the prettiest, most romantic private lane on the historic East side of Santa Fe.  This bit of Eden is in a Wildlife Preserve and includes a .375 acre lot.  There is an all-adobe meditation chapel, a studio, hot tub, sauna, two very large and private courtyards, tall cottonwoods, a Guest House and more.
