Here's the market update for Cottonwood Arizona. For July 2020 compared to July 2019.
Give the kitchen in your Uptown Sedona home a break and order pizza from Sedona Pizza Company. They are currently open for business while following CDC guidelines to help prevent the spread of coronavirus. Rest assured that when you go into the restaurant, it has been rigorously and thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, especially high-contact surfaces. In addition, staff who feel at all ill stay home and don’t return until they are medically cleared. So whether you’re planning to get take out or eat at the restaurant, you can feel safe about your choice.
Even though you’re on Sedona real estate at Sedona Pizza Company, you might just feel like you’ve landed in Italy. The wood-fired pizza is that authentic. The secret? First, they start with home-made dough. Then you get to choose your base--either red, garlic ricotta, or oil. Then choose your favorite combination. The margherita starts with San Marzano tomato sauce, adds fresh mozzarella, a drizzle of Sedona Divine olive oil and finishes with fresh basil. For those who love meat, try the special. From a base of San Marzano tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella, add pepperoni, sausage, sopressata (dry salami), mushrooms, red bell peppers, and Italian green olives. If you want to build your own pizza, you have plenty of choices of cheese, meat, and veggies. There are vegan and gluten-free options, too. Just ask your server.
In addition to pizza, Uptown Sedona home owners can choose from some delicious salads, sandwiches, and house-made pasta. The wine selections include options from Italy and California. For those who love a refreshing beer, check out the local Arizona brews. For an authentic Italian pizza experience, have a bottle of Peroni, an Italian beer. Or if you love cocktails, try the Sedona Sangria. It’s a mix of white wine, Aperol, peach schnapps, and citrus--very refreshing.

One of the attractions of Red Rock Loop real estate is the beautiful location, close to Slide Rock State Park and plenty of hiking. The other great thing about owning a Sedona home in the area is that it’s also very close to restaurants, shopping, and professional services. Hiking and being outdoors are great for beating the cabin fever that can sometimes go along with slowing the spread of COVID-19. Sometimes, though, what you really need is a massage to help release tensions. Fortunately, many businesses in Sedona have figured out ways to re-open while keeping everyone safe. A Spa for You is one of those that have worked hard to come up with creative ways to be open.
A Spa for You has an extensive list of available massages. Try the Sedona Experience for a signature massage that will leave you feeling relaxed and energized. It’s combination of several styles, including Swedish, deep tissue, and Trager. The Sports Rebound massage is a great choice, whether you’re getting ready for a long hiking expedition or recovering from one. Expecting mothers will love the PreNatal Nurturer. Couples can opt for the Sedona Duet, the couples massage, and relax together.
Red Rock Loop real estate owners can expect several changes to the way A Spa for You operates. Currently, they are only booking one client or party at a time. This means that you get the studio to yourself for your treatment. The only downside is that there won’t be as many appointments available as usual. Potential clients are advised to book well in advance.
Those who might not feel comfortable with in-person treatments can book a Nurture in Place Home Spa Experience. These are video calls where a practitioner will lead clients in relaxation exercises.
Visit A Spa for You online to read more about both in-person and distance treatment options.
Anyone interested in living in the Sedona area should check out Village of Oak Creek homes. The community is just a few miles south of the center of Sedona, so it’s easy to take in a concert or visit the art galleries or go hiking in one of the national forests. However, the Village of Oak Creek is smaller and quieter than Sedona. Almost the entire village is governed by a homeowners’ association, which does not allow short term rentals. For those who value a strong and stable community, this is great news. You’ll find a variety of real estate options in Oak Creek. Check out the condos, which offer convenience and a low-maintenance lifestyle with great amenities like a pool and tennis courts. There are also comfortable single-family homes, for those who want a bit more space.
Whether you’re still shopping Village of Oak Creek homes or you’ve settled on Sedona real estate, you’ll love the many dining options in the village. Miley’s Cafe is a favorite local eatery, which prides itself on its friendly atmosphere and extensive menu. It’s open from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day. Order breakfast anytime or try something off the lunch and dinner menu.
Come in for breakfast and fuel up for the day with an omelette, pancakes or waffles, or eggs cooked your favorite way, plus hashbrowns and a side of bacon or sausage. If you want a little spice, check out the Mexican options, including huevos rancheros and a chorizo burrito. For lunch, come hungry and bring some friends to try the No Way Jose burger. It’s a triple-decker hamburger with bacon, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. Or order one of the sandwiches or a plate of fish and chips. Kids are welcome and can order from their very own menu.
Visit Miley’s Cafe to see the full menu and get directions.
West Sedona homes are situated in a great location for enjoying the cultural and dining options Sedona offers, as well as access to the gorgeous natural areas that surround the city. Sunset Park is a great place to explore. Families with small children will appreciate the two playgrounds, one for young children and one for older kids. Kids can climb, slide, and play in the sand. Both playgrounds are shaded, so they’re comfortable even when it’s hot out. The splash pad is open from May 1st through September 30th. Come to the park dressed in swimsuits and have a blast running in and out of the water features. Pack a picnic lunch and relax at the picnic tables under the shady ramadas.
In addition to the playgrounds and picnic areas, there are several other amenities and things to do. Bring tennis rackets and balls from your Sedona real estate and play a set with friends at one of the two tennis courts. Or get a few friends together for a game of basketball. The basketball court can also be used for pickleball. Call the parks department at 928.282.7098 to get the combination for the net. Sunset Park has a large grassy field, perfect for playing Frisbee or just relaxing in the sun. Leashed dogs are also welcome at the park.
Anyone looking for an easy way to connect to Coconino National Forest near West Sedona homes will find one at Sunset Park. Lollipop Trail is 1/10 of a mile long and links up with longer trails that wind through the national forest. If you decide to hike in the summer, be sure to wear a hat and sunscreen and bring plenty of water and snacks. Early morning or evening are the best times to hike, as the heat is not too intense.

Like many Sedona area communities, Camp Verde real estate has a rich history and lots to explore. Fort Verde State Historic Park is located here. The military maintained a presence in the area from 1865 to 1891, and Fort Verde was an active posting from 1871 to 1891. Fort Verde became a state park in 1970. Today, it’s a fascinating place to visit, with lots of artifacts, photos, and interpretive materials. Living history events are regularly scheduled, too.
Plan to start your visit at the Military Headquarters, which is now a museum. In addition to the infantry soldiers and cavalry, many other people lived in and around the fort. These included the Yavapai and Apache peoples, white settlers, Indian scouts, doctors and surgeons. The museum has artifacts from all these groups, showing how they lived. You’ll find a collection of photographs and interpretive videos, too, to give a fuller picture and better understanding of the history of the fort and those who lived here. Be sure to explore the three different house museums, too. See the commanding officers’ quarters, bachelors’ quarters, and the doctors and surgeons’ quarters. All three are authentically furnished with period pieces.
For those fascinated by Indian scouts, the Visitor Center and Park Store has more displays, photos and videos about them. The Visitor Center is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. everyday except Christmas. At the store, you’ll find books, postcards, and gift items available for purchase.
When you’ve explored the museum and Visitor Center, check out the grounds. Bring along a picnic to enjoy at one of the picnic tables. There is a large ramada to rent, where you can throw a party for the history lovers in your life.

Whether you’re checking out Back O Beyond Ranch homes or have been settled in one for a while, one of the best and closest places to get a bite to eat is The Hudson. The upscale yet casual eatery is about three miles away, less than 10 minutes by car. This is one of the cool things about living in Back O Beyond Ranch. There’s a great sense of privacy and quiet, with custom-built houses on large lots. It’s easy to feel like you are in the “back of beyond”. However, civilization and its delights are just a few minutes away, so you get to have the best of both worlds.
When you’re ready for a break from the country, head to The Hudson of a taste of cultivated elegance. The restaurant is a newer addition to the area, having been founded in 2015. The menu focuses on American staples made with the freshest ingredients. The chef adds his own special touches for an elevated dining experience.
The Hudson is open for lunch and dinner. The deck is nice and shady and provides a panoramic view of Sedona real estate, from the lights of the city center to the fabulous red rocks further out. If you come in for lunch, be sure to check out the lunch specials. Each one is served with your choice of mango slaw or french fries. Options include the chicken quesadilla, steak caesar pita, or crispy chicken club wrap.
For those looking for a more filling meal should take a look at the starters. Have a bowl of Chef Jeff’s famous corn chowder. Sample the four cheese spinach and roasted artichoke dip, served on warm tortilla chips. For great south of the border flavors, have the Chapos Baja shrimp ceviche. If you’re in the mood for a burger, try the Hudson mushroom burger. The patty is made with ground beef and Portobello mushrooms, served on a bolillo bun and piled with arugula, jalapeno bacon, onion strings, truffled gouda cheese, and garlic aioli. Get a group of friends from Back O Beyond Ranch homes together for a meal out or order in.

Sedona is an ideal location for people who love being outdoors. There are so many fun things to do--take a hike, go mountain biking, or horseback riding. While there are stables where riders can board horses or pay to take a trail ride, you can also search for Sedona horse property. It’s amazing how many beautiful homes with full facilities for horses there are. You’ll find enough space for horses to be turned out every day for exercise, as well as fully built stables. Some stables also have a finished sitting room where owners can relax and enjoy a glass of water or cup of tea and a snack after riding.
Because so much Sedona real estate is outside of the city, you can find Sedona horse property that borders one of the national parks, too. Imagine being able to saddle up and go for a trail ride through the amazingly beautiful red rock formations any time you’d like.
Red Rock State Park is a great choice for people who want to be near a national forest and also want to ride horses. There are a couple of equestrian trails in the park. The east entrance will lead riders to the Turkey Creek Trail. The out-and-back trail is just under six miles long. It’s fairly flat, except for the end. The views at the end of the trail are spectacular. At the park’s main entrance, you’ll find Lime Kiln Trail. It is also an out-and-back trail and is 18 miles long. Lime Kiln Trail is also considered moderately difficult. Those who enjoy wildlife and wildflowers will love it. Red Rock State Park has a hitching post at the visitors center. You can bring a picnic and eat at one of the tables nearby or check out the exhibits in the visitors center.
Visit Red Rock State Park to find out more about the trails and learn about upcoming events.
