THE LODGE
What a welcoming place this is. As soon as you open the door you are engulfed in the carefully-curated visual delights. The resorts signature restaurant - SKYFIRE, the bar lounge, living room, private dining room, magnificent outdoor decks with fire pits, and the breathtaking vistas that are so Santa Fe. And artwork from the lodge's original collections - dating back to the 1940's - have been masterfully restored.
