Thank you for sharing your kind words. We’re thrilled this was one of your best VRBO experiences and that the property and amenities helped make your stay special.
A truly wonderful experience. The property is in a quiet neighborhood, but still close to restaurants and local activities. Everything was top-tier from start to finish. Communication with the host was excellent throughout the booking process. The home was immaculate and precisely as described in the listing. Five stars well deserved.

We booked this stunning home for a girls’ trip and had the best time! The pictures honestly don’t do this place justice — it’s even better in person. Super comfortable, beautiful, and had everything we needed. Already talking about when we can come back!

Thank you for the glowing review, Daniel, but we suspect you did not mean to give us a 1-star rating based on your feedback. Anyway, we’re glad you had a terrific time and hope you choose us again for your next visit!
We rented this home for my 50th birthday getaway with 6 friends. The house is amazing. The stream and whole backyard is so serene. I also enjoyed the master bedroom. Enjoyed everything about the house except sharing an old iron between the casita and main house.

We’re so glad you enjoyed the home and location and had a great stay overall, Angie! We look forward to hosting you again, and thank you for the 5-star review!
The property and location were perfect. Beautiful surroundings and well maintained. It was really nice to have the casita. After long hikes, coming back and wading in the creek was super refreshing. The home is very spacious with different gathering areas. We will definitely consider coming back to this property.

Beautiful house and grounds enjoyed by our entire multi-age group. Loved the easy walkable access to the Cathedral Trail. Creek running in back was both fun and relaxing. The big windows and were great for star gazing. Great indoor and outdoor spaces to come together or find your own nook to relax. Would definitely recommend!

This house was great: super private, right above the creek, with tons of room and a great space for our two families to gather. I would definitely stay there again.

We're delighted you and your old high school buddies had a fantastic time at our property, Mathew! It's wonderful to know that the experience exceeded your expectations. Thank you for your kind words and recommendation—we'd love to welcome you back anytime!
Check in and communication through reservation system was pretty seamless. House was amazing, right on the creek. Coffee in the morning on the creek and a glass of wine in the evening at the same spot. Perfect for relaxing and done much needed family time. My only issue was we like to take walks in the morning and could not exit the property without using a car to activate the front gate. Maybe the battery in the box on the inside was dead. We worked around it. Pet friendly and man did the dogs love it. Thank you for sharing this tremendous home.

Bret, thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. Your mornings with coffee and evenings with wine by the creek sound absolutely idyllic. We appreciate your note about the gate and will have that looked into—thank you for mentioning it. We’re thrilled your dogs enjoyed the stay too and hope you and your family come back soon for more relaxing moments here.
The property is gorgeous, and the home was spotlessly clean. It was peaceful and quiet. It is the perfect location for introspection and healing.
My only complaint was that to leave the property on foot, you must climb over the gate. If you don't plan on walking off the property, it's amazing. If you plan on taking walks and aren't able to climb over a fence, this may not be the property for you.

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Lynn! We're thrilled you found the property peaceful and perfect for introspection. We're addressing the gate access issue and appreciate your feedback. Hope to welcome you back soon!
We expected this property to be exceptional and it exceeded our expectations. The house or villa is nestled in a quiet neighborhood with complete privacy. The quality of the interior finish-out is outstanding and the upper and lower rear patios are great for visiting and listening to the flowing creek below. We also enjoyed sitting by the fire on the upper patio in the evenings. The stand-alone casita is a bonus for those who want a little extra privacy.
Our entire party was impressed with the property and highly recommend it as a peaceful alternative to staying in Sedona proper.
Additionally, it is a short drive to Clark's Grocery in Oak Creek Village that precludes fighting the traffic into Sedona. Great Location!
Due to the possible poor cell reception at the entry, be sure that you have both gate and house entry codes before arriving at the property.

Thank you for your glowing 5-star review, Pam! We're thrilled that our property exceeded your expectations and provided you with a peaceful retreat in the Red Rocks. We look forward to welcoming you back for another serene getaway!
Our large family really enjoyed this beautiful property and will definitely book again. A perfect getaway from Scottsdale temperatures. Luxurious, spacious and bright, the large windows and tall ceilings allow for beautiful views of pure green trees. The flowing rushing water of the creek sounds magical and beckons everyone out onto the patio and yard. We found the wisteria vines and rain chains particularly magical, especially when we were lucky enough to get some rain the day we arrived.I really loved that every room has a generous sized tv ( no laptops at night to watch your favorite shows)... and the amount of storage space in the master bathroom and closet was fabulous. The master tub was insanely perfect for a relaxing soak and the kitchen was a good size as well. Very open concept throughout the home and just a great feeling to it in general. Because our family was pretty big.It was so nice to have the casita, which is a whole extra space.It's geared for 2 though, so just a heads up that if you're planning on having your kids stay in there with you, you'll need to pull some other additional items from the main house as its not stocked for more than 2. I think if I were to have to think of anything that could have been improved upon, it would be to have seating on the ledge by the creek to be able to sit and enjoy comfortably and also...the beds throughout the home were pretty stiff and uncomfortable, and made noises with every turn-over at night. ButOverall...5 stars!
