- Ski & SnowboardSki Santa Fe is 15 miles away, but you can see the mountain from your patio.
Suitability
- Wheelchair inaccessibleThere are 2 steps to the front door from the sidewalk, which you can see in one of my photos. The patio gate does open onto another sidewalk, and there is access through the patio doors into the unit, so it could be possible to access the unit with a wheelchair, but I wouldn't say that it is truly an accessible accommodation. The unit is a good choice for low-mobility, mobility-impaired, elderly, or infirm guests who can navigate a couple of low steps at the front door. The underground parking lot is secure. The dedicated parking space for this unit is a short walk to the elevator, and there are handicapped parking spaces (first-come, first served, but usually available), right next to the elevator. The elevator takes you to the ground floor, and then there is a short walk along a concrete pathway to the unit. If you have concerns about whether or not this unit is suitable for your party, don't hesitate to contact me and I will do my best to answer completely and honestly.

Ask a questionAbout Cynthia Baughman
Cynthia is retired from the New Mexico Department of Cultural affairs where she edited 'El Palacio,' the magazine of the extensive state museum system. She and her husband love the cultural life and the beauty and history of Santa Fe and the whole state of New Mexico. If you would like recommendations for museums, restaurants, day trips (or longer) just ask. After many years of visiting New Mexico, Cynthia and her husband moved permanently from the Philadelphia area to Tesuque Village (a few minutes north of Santa Fe) in 2010. Born in Tennessee, Cynthia grew up in Washington DC, got a BA in English from Dartmouth College and an MFA in Creative Writing from Cornell, and taught writing at Ithaca College and Temple University before moving to Santa Fe to work in Cultural Affairs. Cynthia and her husband have two adult children who work in the film industry (sometimes in New Mexico!), and two small dogs from the Santa Fe Animal Shelter. A frequent vacation destination is Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. In retirement, Cynthia volunteers in the Photo Archives at the New Mexico History Museum (on the Plaza in Santa Fe, and a few blocks from the condo). Note from Cynthia: I keep my calendar up to date and am easily accessible by e-mail and phone. If you have questions, I will get back to you as soon as I can--usually within a few minutes (although varying time zones can make for a lag). I and my small team strive to provide an exceptional experience for our guests, to stay out of your way and respect your privacy, but be quickly available if you need us. We are gratified that we have repeat visitors who have become friends.

Why Cynthia Baughman chose Downtown Santa Fe
El Corazon de Santa Fe means 'The Heart of Santa Fe,' and it's the truth. This location is ideal: a quiet, residential block just steps from the best restaurants, museums, and shopping of Santa Fe. The nearby Plaza throbs with life, and the great Spanish Market and Indian Market happen around you. Marcy Street, with excellent restaurants and shopping, is one block away. The Lensic Performing Arts Center is a short 3-4 block walk away. Located on the north side of town, the condo provides easy access by car to the Santa Fe Ski Valley and the Santa Fe Opera.
What makes this Condo unique
The shady garden patio provides a quiet haven behind adobe walls, and gives you a view of the snow-capped mountains of the Ski Valley and the gentler Sun Mountain of Santa Fe's Museum Hill. Underground parking means your car is always at the ready for jaunts to the Farmer's Market, Ten Thousand Waves Spa, Ski Santa Fe, or the Opera, or for day trips to Bandelier Monument, Los Alamos, or Taos. But you may just want to keep your car parked for days---there are so many magical places within walking distance. It is possible to come without a car and spend your entire trip walking the historic Plaza area, or to rent a car just for a few days of trips to spots such as Acoma Pueblo, Taos, and the historic mining town--now arts town--Madrid. El Corazon de Santa Fe has an on-site exercise center in the Clubhouse, and a garden area with a community grill. The property is quiet and secure, in the heart of downtown, in easy walking distance to museums, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, historic sites, and performing arts.
