Sedona Sanctuary: Walk to Cathedral Rock and River

Sedona Sanctuary has been the destination for some of the most magical experiences in our lives. You can take a private walking trail to swim in Oak Creek, take sunset photos on Secret Slick Rock, and experience the profound energy atop Cathedral Rock. This is truly the best location in Sedona. We also designed this entire place for luxury and serenity: enjoy the hot tub under the stars, have breakfast overlooking cathedral rock, and get the best night of sleep ever on your organic king bed.

Good to know

This is a 3-bedroom, 2 bathroom home with two luxurious Avocado Organic King wool/latex hybrid mattresses (the same ones we use at home :) a well-equipped kitchen, and newly remodeled bathroom with walk-in shower and epic soaking tub. My absolute favorite part is the outdoor space, though. There is a beautifully landscaped outdoor area for sunset dinners, hot tub under the stards, and weight equipment to stay fit on vacation. This house also shares a wall with a separate studio (which is also an Airbnb), but it's very private with separate parking and outdoor space. If you would like to expand to all four bedrooms and maximum privacy, click on our profile and book the entire property.

Other Details to Note

Nature is the star at this home is in the heart of Sedona. Being able to walk from the house to Cathedral Rock, Red Rock Crossing and Crescent Moon Ranch, and Oak Creek without having to drive and park makes this the best location in Sedona. We always walk ~5 minutes to the Secret Slick Rock to watch the sunset. (Secret Slick Rock is also where Beyonce filmed her music video "Spirit" with epic views of Cathedral Rock, where everyone goes to get married :) We are outside of the bustle of town, but it's only a 13 minute drive to Whole Foods, 11 Minutes to our favorite cafe Chocola Tree, and minutes from epic swimming holes like Chavez Crossing. Hiking and Nature: Cathedral Rock is an hour hike (one way) (best hike in Sedona!) Secret Slick Rock is 5-10min walk (or can park at trailhead for short walk access) Crescent Moon ranch is .5 miles (walk or short drive) for visiting Buddha Beach, having a family picnic, and walking by the river, Chavez Crossing is 1.4 miles (short drive) for epic swimming holes West Fork Oak Creek Trail (32 min) Town Recommendations: Whole Foods is 11min away driving Tlaquepaque (art and shops) 14min ChocolaTree Organic Eatery (best for cacao drinks) 11min Sedona Artist Market - 10 min

The place is overall of good quality. Everything is great, clean and also kids-friendly! The only con is the air conditioner is bit noisy but it will be a bit cold during December if we turn it off. But the host also kindly remind us about this situation too. The coffee is amazing! Back yard is peaceful and of good view.

This was the perfect place for visiting Sedona. It was a short walk to a few different hiking trails, including cathedral rock. Troy’s place was just what we needed. The yard was great for brining my dog and the hot tub was wonderful after a day of hiking. The sites we planned on visiting during our trip were a short drive, making this the perfect home base for our stay.

Our stay was perfect. The house was beautiful, check in was smooth, and Troy was very prompt with replying to questions and communication overall. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

I had a wonderful time at Troy’s place in Sedona! Great amenities, squeaky clean, and within walking distance to some of the most popular trails in Sedona. Great since parking for these trails can be difficult.

Our stay at this true sanctuary of a home made our visit to Sedona a memorable experience. The home is very well appointed with high quality furnishings inside and out, as well as accessories worthy of a gourmet kitchen. Highlights included easy access to Oak Creek and trails, watching the sunrise over Cathedral Rock from our comfy beds, and the best hot tub we’ve ever relaxed in! A stay here makes you feel like a Sedona local, if only for a few precious days. We’ll be back!
