Beautiful house and location

This is a very unique house that has been carefully tended over the years. We made a fire in the fireplace and relaxed after a long journey. The kitchen is well stocked and clean as is the laundry room. Beds are super comfortable. The single full bath is jack and jill which made it a little awkward. We would have liked an outdoor space with a table to have meals. We were disappointed that we couldn’t see the red rock bluffs from inside or the small deck. The house is truly an architectural gem with beautiful woodwork.

Lovely

Like a previous review of this property it was a bit more than I usually spend for a VRBO but from the moment my family pulled up to the drive we were in love. The neighborhood was quiet, the views amazing and the house was gorgeous. We had neighbors in the guest house almost every night but it was still very private and we saw them next to never. The communication from the owner was excellent.

First Time in Sedona

My family and I came for a family wedding. It was our first time to the Sedona area. The Oasis Retreat was an amazing stay! We loved the beautiful architecture of the home. It was inviting from the moment we opened the door. The owners had everything clearly set up for an easy arrival. All the amenities the home offered was just what we need to feel at home away from home. Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area that wants a very nice stay away from the busy tourist scene down in Sedona.

Great unique stay

I’m a tough critic of homes. This place was fantastic in every way. Great lighting with the skylights. Very clean. Great collection of books and maps to help with hiking. Probably the best stocked place we have stayed at… spices , olive oil, plastic bags, etc. this made it very convenient. We also saw a coyote in the front yard one morning which was cool. Highly recommend for a unique stay in Sedona

Perfect Getaway

We had the best experience at your property. Just two of us, so we splurged with a little more space than we needed...but it was so perfect! Two sitting areas, big kitchen; loved the layout of the space. We had not been to Sedona in 7 years and BOY is it busy with traffic! Staying here, in Jack's Canyon...we loved the peace and tranquility the area/home provided; while still close enough to Sedona to go for galleries, dining, car show. Hiking trails are so close to the house. We're really grateful to have spent 6 nights with you.

Great home

This home is gorgeous! The views of the red rock mountains from the home and neighborhood are great. The home is a very well maintained and equipped craftsman style home that met our needs perfectly. I would absolutely recommend this home for adults or families with older children. It’s in a neighborhood away from town and you experience a sense of peace immediately upon arrival. The owner was very responsive to my emails and seemed kind and friendly. If you have a large vehicle, I wouldn’t even attempt the driveway. Park on the street and walk down the drive.

Exquisite, remote, quite, and comfy

This place is in a beautiful tucked away canyon. We loved it. The whole house has a unique design. We were very comfortable as we used it as a home base for our adventures. There is so much to do in the area including hiking, jeep tours, shopping, and hundreds of unique artsy shops. You really can't go wrong. Finally the internet wasn't bad at all for us.

Sedona Oasis

This property is a very special place. Located in a quiet neighborhood it is a peaceful retreat after a day of hiking on the beautiful Sedona trails. The house has been lovingly cared for, comfortable, and unique. I especially liked the many windows and skylights, and the tv/sun room was my favorite. One evening we were visited by a bobcat on the porch. It was a bit cold to enjoy the outside seating areas, but would be an excellent spot to enjoy the stars in the dark sky neighborhood. Would definitely consider returning.

Beautiful and Peaceful

The location of Katie's house was beautiful and very easy to get to and away from the busyness of Sedona. We found a great breakfast place down the street next to Clarks Grocery Store. I believe the name is Red Rock Cafe. The views to walk around the house were awesome. The house itself was as described. We did have neighbors on the other side, but we saw them only once in the 4 days we were there and that was while we were both heading out to hike that morning. This was our first trip to Sedona, and it won't be our last. Thank you.

Nice escape.

My wife and I enjoyed our week+ stay, we made it our home and it was comfortable and quiet. It is 10 minutes from town and cell phones only work on the Wi-Fi, that was a plus for us-PERFECT! The house is so wonderful, it takes you back to Old Arizona, Art Deco touches and thoughtful attention to comfort. Communication with the owner was easy and accommodating. Best for a couple or small family. Would work for very close friends who don't mind sharing the shower area.

This was my 2nd time staying at at this property and it was just the space I needed to relax and rejuvenate. Katie's home is clean, comforting, calming, and warm. My intention when going to Sedona is always to heal and reflect. I could not ask for a more welcoming space to do this in. I promise you will want for nothing while staying there.

What a peaceful place!

My husband and I stayed here for our daughters wedding. We wanted to be a little out of Sedona. What a perfect place! Quiet, clean, surrounded by trees. Everything worked, there were windows everywhere, and we really loved watching all the wildlife playing, resting and having a drink in the back yard. How peaceful! We will be back, as we really enjoyed the serenity of the area. A little bit of heaven!

240 Longwood May 20 - 22

It is difficult to put into words how much we loved being at 240 Longwood. The logistics were 100% easy and clear, from the instructions to the door, the summary of the thermostats, and the laundry room door. All good and useful instructions! As for the house and property itself, "gem" is an excellent word for this place. The aura of this place inspired a level of introspection, self-care, peace, and appreciation that I can't really put into words. The architecture, the books, the furnishings, the windows, the sky lights, the finishes, the artisan tiles... everything was timeless. I felt like I was in magical Sedona. I felt like I was in Japan. I felt like I was in Hawaii. We were transported to many places from this single location and will always remember it. We loved the DVD collection. We really loved the CD collection and CD player. We used the laundry room and also admired the album collection. The music and movie collection reminded us of our home in California. The neighbors also made the neighborhood special. I jogged the neighborhood a few times and every time felt more at home, greeted by waves as folks (who had noticed I was doing laps) were out watering plants and hanging on their front patios. On one of my runs I ran into Antoine (lives past 240 opposite side, north corner) and we chatted about his friend that climbed Rabbit Ears and his recent work to create a fire break around his home and his sick brother and the drought and fires. OMG, THE XYLOPHONE WAS SO MUCH FUN! I sat out on the back deck and serenaded the lizards in the morning! It was so much fun. A few things we noticed might need a little work: 1. The front door latch does not spring anymore but as long as the deadbolt is locked it stays shut. 2. The back door to the deck does not catch to shut so if the wind blows and the dead bolt is not locked it will open by itself. 3. The screen on the back door to the deck is off track. My fiance righted it as best he could but the bottom track is very tough to open and close without bending over to pull/push it. 4. The oven buttons are pretty well worn out... but they still work! I used the broiler and it worked great so no big deal there but just FYI. 5. I noticed the center section of the grass/lawn in the back yard had a growing dry spot. One thing I would love to plan is another visit. Goal is hike the Rabbit Ears loop trail from the Jack's Canyon Trailhead and hope find someone with a horse that needs riding. Peace!
