About Crescent Moon Ranch Cabin

The central Arizona facility is a rustic, historic ranch house adjacent to Oak Creek and near the base of the towering Cathedral Rock, one of the most photographed scenes in the Southwest. Guests can enjoy hiking, photography or simply relaxing and taking in the breathtaking views. The cabin can accommodate up to 10 people for overnight use. It can be accessed by vehicle. Guests are responsible for their own travel arrangements and safety, and must bring several of their own amenities.

This site surpassed my expectations. While the building shows its age, everything is well-maintained. There are numerous hiking trails to explore. Templeton Trail, which can be accessed by crossing the creek and leads to Cathedral Rock. The area is serene and peaceful, and the kitchen is well-stocked with utensils.

The cabin itself is fantastic - really big (three bathrooms and three bedrooms; two beds big enough for two people, and three beds big enough for one person) and comfortable. The cabin's walls are so thick that the Bluetooth signal from my headphones was lost walking from one side to the other - which helps keep it very quiet, and would be great for privacy if hosting a big group. The view is also obviously unmatched.

Unfortunately the cabin sits up the hill from an extremely popular site, so there's no real sense of seclusion during the day because you can definitely hear (and sometimes see) people hiking or at the creek. I guess this is unavoidable everywhere in Sedona but it is kind of a bummer.

Also, and this is not really a complaint because I figure it's just inevitable, but there are definitely mice. If you're really afraid of mice, I would not stay here.

It's a great base camp with so much hiking and exploring nearby that you don't need a vehicle to get to so many trails.

Such amazing views and a relaxing location.

It is an old, rustic cabin in the middle of the wilderness, so expect bugs (mostly ants) and lots of mice. Always keep your food secured in containers to not attract anymore unwanted critters.
