About this apartment rental
This is a large (14'x16') master bedroom set up for a quiet getaway...You'll park on a private driveway with private entrance and greenery all around. The house is located in a beautiful neighborhood with views of red rocks of Sedona and valley as well as looking up to Mingus Mountain and Jerome. Short distance (10 min) to Old Town Cottonwood businesses and events and 25-30 minutes to both Jerome and Sedona, with easy access to I-17 freeway or Hwy 89A. Close to supermarkets & businesses but feels tucked away and has pretty trees, shrubs and flowers planted all around and is just a short walk to the Verde River with trails down the street. Owner is an artist with long history of living here and knowledge of area so she can give you tips and info will be in your room as well! All the furnishings and amenities were picked with love for things to be used and enjoyed not only for their utility but their aesthetic and colorful qualities as well. Doves, quail, cardinals, finches and other birds visit the backyard. Dead Horse State Park is my favorite walk (10 min. drive) around the three lagoons and even more birds like herons, ducks and even bald eagles can be spotted there! Hope you come and enjoy your stay in the beautiful Verde Valley!

Cozy property, close to stores and restaurants. Most of all not far from hiking and biking trails. Several trails for hiking and biking at Deadhorse Ranch State Park.

During my second visit to Sedona, I am glad to choose my home base in Cottonwood/Verde Valley area, where the studio is located. Quite to my surprise, the studio is very much like European local owned hotels -uniquely designed and vividly artistic. The host Pam has gone above and beyond attentively with each detail. The stupid is cozy, clean and feels like home without strangers. There are good collection of supplies in bathroom and kitchen as you could choose to cook after getting tired of dining out. Pam provides good amount of instruction to navigate indoors as well as outdoors. As an avid hiker, I found it super helpful to get Sedona hiking recommendation/city shuttle transportation to the trails. Additionally I enjoy the recommended good food and exploring in Cottonwood old town, which is so undervalued compared to Sedona, but quite a hidden gem worthy of a precious vacation. I absolutely and whole heartedly recommend staying here. You will not regret!

The place was very clean and well-maintained. We were impressed by the attention to detail and the warm atmosphere that the host had created. The layout of the apartment was good and the location was perfect for our needs. The area was quiet allowing us to relax and unwind after the long day of hiking. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Restaurants and groceries were also conveniently close.
Communication with the host was seamless. She was responsive and accommodating, ensuring that our needs were met promptly. We would definitely go back.

Quiet. Good location. Good suggestions for local outings.

We spent over a week in hotel rooms and we were ready for stillness and time together. (You feel closer when you don’t have to smile at strangers in line at the hotel breakfast buffet). It was nice to be steps away from your door with luggage. With a little creativity, you have everything you need to make meals after a trip to the grocery store. We enjoyed stashing our ice cream in the little freezer!
Our reasonably priced room was like being at a relative’s house where you had your privacy while your stay was thoughtfully made comfortable and enjoyable. The walk-in shower was amazing to wash off the miles of hiking!
Neighborhood was friendly and we enjoyed our walk along the beautiful Verde River. The view from the driveway was breathtaking each time and your piece of the river was prettier than the water we saw in Dead Horse Ranch State Park.

We stayed here for 3nights and we loved it,! It was so cozy and clean. It was just outside Cottonwood and very quiet. It has everything that we needed. Plenty of information about things available and things to do in the area. If we are out that way again we would definitely stay there again. We would highly recommend it! Thank you!

The short walk to a less traveled walking path along the Verde river is going to make us come back again and again. What a gorgeous hidden away spot. Breathtakingly beautiful. I also enjoyed the patio space. We never met the owner but she was very polite in our messages and has many amenities if you want to cook (we didn't) and good books around to read. Bed was comfortable.

This was a lovely, well-sized room with all the amenities that we needed and more.
The location was perfect with Sedona 25 minutes to the east, Clarkdale 5 minutes, Jerome 15 minutes, Camp verde 20 minutes. Her house sits at the top of a hill with a gorgeous view of the sunrise and sunset with the red rocks in the distance. Priceless!
For all the amenities, size of the room, and location, the price was completely reasonable and better than anything else I saw in VRBO.
My 13 year old and I stayed here together. The bed was a queen and super comfortable. Plenty of blankets and pillows. The kitchenette had everything we needed and more. It was very quiet and we never been heard the host during our stay. The driveway allowed us to pull right up to our door and we had a private entrance.
Pamela replied immediately to all of my emails before we came and also to those during our stay. She had tons of pamphlets for attractions and personal notes left with suggestions of things to see and do nearby.
I feel very fortunate to have gotten to stay here and am already planning to come back with my husband. I highly recommend and look forward to staying here again soon.

I spent a week hiking Red Rocks, and enjoyed my hillstop stay. The shower is lovely, and there was lots of space for my stuff--I'm on a two month road trip so the extra closet space came in handy. Wifi is fast, and host is responsive, and there was a little outdoor seating area (sadly, the weather didn't permit me to use it much)

The property manager was very sweet:) when we checked in we saw that she had taken time to hand-write us 2 pages of recommendations in the area. The room itself was very comfortable!
