眺めの良い広々とした豪華な家、プラザなどへの短い散歩

Glad you enjoyed the space and rooms. Coffee is so specific these days! As I mention in my welcome letter, with up to 14 guests, the first concerns are speed and quantity! So I suggest bringing your favorite ground blend. I love sipping a cup in the back garden listening to the birds and watching the mountains. Others walk to the Plaza to have traditional fare at an outdoor table. Die hards drive to the nearby D-- or S--- for their usual and may stop by a local French bakery or the bagel shop (yes, there is one!)

Thanks so much for staying! My home does host a lot of "girls weekends" and reunions to share and make great memories. Now the you've found it, come on back!

Glad you had a fantastic time! Please tell your friends as well, we could swap restaurant recommendations and more!

Thanks for the review--I keep 2 propane tanks for the grill, and I wish I'd known so I could reimburse you! Wood floors in a desert can be problematic with expansion/contraction. Sorry the night owls and early birds weren't downstairs!

So glad you had a great time! Come back soon!

I’m glad that you appreciated the proximity of my home to the Plaza museums, shopping, and restaurants. Price is a big concern these days--we all want to pay less for everything. Guests should compare my 7 bedrooms in a 6000 sq ft home about 4 blocks from the Plaza to nightly rates at nearby hotels and homes to see what fits their budgets. But also remember your desire for a special time with family and friends. The shared spaces, views, and cooking/dining areas speak for themselves. You will be pleased that I have the same base rate for 2027 as I had in 2025 and 2026. The comments about the layout are puzzling. I designed it to have a separate apartment for privacy. (It’s not a casita--it’s in the same 4 walls.) It is hard to hide 1400 sq ft of living space! I describe it in the listing and in detail in my first-response note. In the Welcome letter, the first paragraph is the security measures, and the second paragraph is about the apartment. It’s an ideal space for early birds, night owls, people who need quiet to concentrate—and maybe also for in-laws who want a break! LOL The other concerns have been passed onto the cleaners and maintenance people for review and remediation.

I look forward to hosting you again soon--how about Indian Market or the ABQ Balloon Fiesta in October next year?

Thanks for the kind words! Being with friends and multi-generation gatherings are so important these days, and I'm glad to help make this happen.

Glad you had a great time at my home! Tell your friends and share the fun!

Canyon Road is an easy walk, especially with a stop at Kakawa Chocolate House for a restorative sampling after looking at the galleries. Glad you all enjoyed your visit. Mark

So glad that you had a great time in Santa Fe, and I was thrilled to be able to host you.

A disappointing rating, especially since guests both the week before and a then a week later awarded 5 star 10s! As I shared in calls, the A/C system was both fine and not needed: temperatures were 70/50s. The issue was the separate heating system was always on. My plumber made emergency visit and said it was so warm because some individual zone thermostats were not off! This followed a special ‘wear-and-tear’ email that 1 of the 4 lightbulbs in one of the 5-1/2 baths was out. Would I send someone to fix it that night? I did get someone the next day and was told the bulb was simply loose. A friend reminded me that “Even Goldilocks hated 2/3 of the beds at her host’s house!” and to send good luck wishes to whoever hosts this group next--and happy thanks for the hundreds of guests who have loved my home as much as I do.

So glad you enjoyed the outdoor area--breakfast with the birds and mountain views and then sunset cocktails/dinner with the fire pit and the outdoor fireplace are my favorites. It's special to have such a yard and views so close to the Plaza as well as 5400 sq ft of home, including the 4/5 bedrooms in the main part of the house and the 2-BR apartment for extended family or guests.

Thanks, Chad! So glad you and your family had such a great Santa Fe experience and memories.

You had me at s'mores in the back garden! I can't wait to get back there. So glad you had a great time and took advantage of the easy walk to and around downtown. Mark

Aww, thanks for that! But whatever I do, I can't compete with a great stay in Santa Fe and Casa Junipero!
