About the host
Hosted by Doug and Karen Baltzley
Owner/builder - native New Mexicans. We have lived in Santa Fe for 35 years. We love sharing our beautiful home and setting with others and giving them a chance to experience “ life on the Ridge” while still being close enough to enjoy all that Santa Fe, Taos and other areas have to offer for an enjoyable and memorable vacation!
Why they chose this property
Doug and his brother developed the land that the home and surrounding property sits on. We decided to build in Apache Canyon to enjoy the history of the army battles that took place here, views, solitude, mountain terrain, national forest and wildlife.
What makes this property unique
Property is away from the hustle and bustle of city life surround by National Forest. Comfortable, beautifully appointed, fully equipped and furnished, impeccably clean, attentive owners. 4 different outdoor seating areas with beautiful landscaping, water elements and gardens. Neighborhood grocery store and restaurants in immediate vicinity. Southwest flare!
