Join a growing community with a bright future and ample outdoor recreational opportunities in a Cottonwood home. Enjoy life near the Verde River and the beauty of Mogollon Rim, the Black Hills, and Mingus Mountain. Spend your days exploring the outdoors in the mild climate in the city that sits between 3,300 feet to 3,900 feet above sea level. The temperatures here are usually about 10 degrees cooler than Phoenix, which lies about 100 miles to the south. Take a hike, go horseback riding, or mountain biking in Dead Horse Ranch State Park, Red Rock State Park, or in the Sycamore Canyon Wilderness. Visit nearby attractions such as Out of Africa Wildlife Park and Montezuma Castle National Monument.
There are many events each year that bring those who call Cottonwood home together. Participate in Cottonwood’s Vintage Run, which offers a half marathon, 10K, 2 mile, or the super fun Half-Corked 5K. The Fourth of July is also a special time in town, with a fireworks extravaganza and much more at Cottonwood Kids Park. Other popular events include Thunder Valley Rally and Walkin’ on Main. The Thunder Valley Rally is a motorcycle rally that also includes vendors, concerts, and much more. Walkin’ on Main is a time for the community and surrounding areas to come together to celebrate wine, art, cars, and music.
Cottonwood is a great size, with ample amenities and the chance to get to know other residents. The town is served by Cottonwood-Oak Creek School District and Mingus Union High School. Families enjoy finding materials and participating in programs at the Cottonwood Public Library and participating in sports, camps, classes, and activities through the Parks and Recreation Department. Historic Old Town Cottonwood is a popular destination that offers shopping, dining, and night life experiences. Cottonwood real estate owners also enjoy frequenting the wineries and art galleries in town. There’s also plenty of shopping at Walmart, Kroger, Home Depot, JCPenney, and more.
