"The property was well maintained, our cottage was clean and comfortable and the staff was friendly and helpful. With that being said we didn’t have a lot of options for pet relief areas/grass. This was an issue for us especially at nighttime bc it’s so dark around the cottages and we were told to be aware of skunks around the property especially at night."

"Coming in from Phoenix we were hoping for an early check in instead of waiting until 4:00 pm. We were let in around 11:00 am., it was a very nice relief. A very comfortable stay and sound night of sleep. Will return again. Ps- The small kitchen area has everything you need (cookware) to cook and prepare your own meals. A full size refrigerator was excellent too. Beautiful views around you and space to breathe."

"The room we stayed in was just remodeled and it was perfect with all the amenities you could think of. Our room had a full size refrigerator, small stove top, microwave, toaster, sink with drying rack, plates, bowls, glasses and utensils. They have Crabtree body wash, lotion, shampoo and conditioner. They have a concierge service in the lobby that helped answered questions. They gave us cookies when we checked in and explained all of there amenities they had on site. The pool was heated. Grills and tables available. Property is still going under some remodeling in some areas. Property was very well kept up otherwise. Views were absolutely beautiful. Plenty of parking available on site. Close to everything within walking distance. Bell Rock and Cathedral Rock are very close to the hotel and great for hiking! Short drive into Sedona. I’m so glad we picked this property. Family friendly and was very quiet. Would definitely stay again and would recommend!"
