This is a special place and special location. As lifetime Arizonans we greatly appreciate the history of the ranch and its inhabitants. Sedona activities are unlimited. We choose to not leave the property and do all of our hiking from the ranch location. Sedona offers many different outdoor opportunities.

Incredible historic property situated in an awesome setting. Expect that amenities will be older with normal wear and tear but overall everything functioned well and past guests honored their basic cleaning responsibilities along with general upkeep provided through USFS. Well below the cabin along Oak Creek expect an active stream of day visitors walking from nearby State Park but did not detract from overall beauty of the experience and at sunset all went quite and was very tranquil and private. Very easy to drop in and enjoy your own hike along Oak Creek into historic State Park based around Crescent Moon Ranch or turning upstream one will find some very pretty settings. The ridge line above was very popular and being in the cabin made for a short drive up to a pull off inside the gate making that ridge line walk to really convenient.

This cabin is phenomenal!! There is tons of space, the beds are comfortable and there is cutlery and bowls/plates/mugs in the kitchen. You can easily see the Milky Way from the benches in the backyard. I went with 6 friends and we were amazed by the cabin and had more than enough space. The only thing is there is not much service at the cabin, which is understandable and we didn’t stay long enough in the area to explore trail access by the cabin but there are trailheads at the top of road by the gate! We had a great time and I’m waiting to get lucky to book this cabin again!
