Thank you so much for your review. Would love to welcome you and your girlfriends back again. Hopefully, you enjoyed my wine tasting and dining recommendations.
Easy to find, and easy to access. The home was super clean and had all the necessities and then some! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If any questions needed to be answered Tahona was easy to reach and quickly to respond.
The property was in excellent condition and very clean. We had everything we could have needed during our stay. The host communicates efficiently and promptly. We would stay here again!
This was our first trip to Sedona. This house is in Cottonwood, just a short drive to Sedona. The house was clean and perfect for the 4 of us. Downtown Cottonwood is a nice place to visit as well.

Varda, thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure hosting you and your grandkids. Would love to welcome you back again.
The house was very comfortable. It was nicely set up with bedrooms and baths at opposite ends. The kitchen had pretty much everything that was needed for a month-long stay. The location was convenient for shopping and eating in Cottonwood and was an easy 20-minute drive from Sedona. Tahona was very attentive and responded quickly to the few questions that we had about the property.

Rodney, it was a pleasure hosting you and your bride, Donna. We would love to host you again and appreciate your kind review.
My parents came to visit and we stayed here with my 13 year old daughter for the weekend. It's in a great location that's an easy drive from Phoenix. Close to Jerome (about 20-25 minutes) and all the conveniences your need in town. The home was very clean and well equiped. We didn't cook any meals other than breakfast, but the kitchen is well stocked if we'd wanted to. Very nice quiet neighborhood. There are a few games to play (we didn't play any of them though), and smart TVs in the living room and 2 of the bedrooms. Check in/out was very easy, and no keys to worry about! I would definitely stay here again.
The 4C's. Cute, Cozy, Convenient, and Comfortable!
This spacious and nicely decorated home really provided a great home base for exploring the Sedona-Cottonwood area and beyond. The property while not large, felt spacious and allowed for privacy with bedrooms on both sides of the house as well as providing a great central gathering space in the middle. The kitchen is fabulously stocked with everything you would need to prepare meals including spices, staples, coffee, tea and even pancakes! Downtown Cottonwood is fun for a stroll and has several nice and lively restaurants. Also a small farmers market on Wednesday late afternoon. Dont miss Dead Horse Ranch State Park - great hiking. We would definitely return!
We have stayed in many short-term rentals over the years and Tahona's home is by far the most well-stocked of them all! I usually anticipate running to the store for extra toiletries, coffee or paper products. Not this time! Wranglers Roost had everything that we needed including a wonderful selection of coffee and tea.
The home is very comfortable and centrally located for our travels need (Prescott, Jerome, Sedona and Old Cottonwood).
Tahona was quick to respond when we had a little snafu with the door code (no big deal).
I would definitely stay here again.

The house is very nice inside and has everything you would need and your hosts checks on you to make sure your stay is a great
