About this property

Private Studio Casita Near Oak Creek and Crescent Moon Ranch Park

This unique 400 square foot stand alone studio home was created by my husband, James, an award winning landscape designer. It is surrounded by beautiful gardens, artfully crafted stucco walls, flagstone walkways, a lovely private patio, its own paved driveway, and stone columns, all creating a feeling of peace and serenity.

Easily considered one of the most picturesque areas in Sedona, with many trailheads just steps outside the front door, this is a hikers, mountain bikers and nature lovers paradise.

The indoor living space has a high vaulted ceiling and plenty of windows to take in the light and beauty of the outdoor garden scenery.

Included is a smart Television with Roku to connect to your own streaming accounts.
There is a 3 drawer dresser and a wall mounted clothing hanger rack.
The organic queen size bed is incredibly comfortable dressed with super soft cotton sheets and comfy pillows.

The kitchenette has a small mini refrigerator with small freezer, Breville compact smart oven, 1 burner induction stove, microwave, coffee maker, electric kettle, blender, dishes, utensils and cooking ware.

For longer term rentals all bedding and bathroom linens will be washed weekly on the premises. For personal laundry there is a laundromat in town.

Love the Casita

Great little home centrally located to the trails yet outside the city. It has plenty of thoughtful details, hosts are really helpful. The shower is pretty tiny, which was fine for us, but worth knowing. We can't wait to come back for a longer stay.

Perfect Stay - best host

The accommodation was just perfect! Everything we needed in a lovely space. Lara was the BEST host. She got up to guide us in at midnight! And then she so graciously helped when my husband rolled his ankle on a hike! If I could, I’d give Lara a “10”

This place is a gem, tucked away near Cathedral Rock, Crescent Moon Ranch, and many lovely trails. The space was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. Lara was welcoming and had a treat for us on arrival. Communication was excellent. It's clear that she has been very thoughtful and intentional about what she provides to make the stay convenient, which saved us from running to the store every day. This is a special place and we highly recommend it.

Cozy and Comfortable

The Casita was just what we wanted and was super comfortable in every way. We were there mostly for sleeping and getting going in the morning, so we weren't there a lot. But it was really lovely. We hope to come back when we visit Sedona again.

Perfect place to stay

Lara and James are excellent host. Their property is clean and well maintained. The house has outside seating as well for stargazing. The inside is adorable, clean and just what you need for your stay in Sedona. Lara is very knowledgeable about hiking near by, restaurants and other activities. Which was very appropriated since it was our first visit to Sedona.

Perfect place

I really enjoyed this place! It was very clean with a comfortable bed and any amenities you might think of. The location was perfect too with a beautiful view driving in and out to the main road. I even woke up the first morning and outside were 2 Javelina! If I had a question, I would text the host and she got back right away. Much appreciated. Why would anyone consider staying at a hotel when you have kind people offering places like this one.....Would i stay here again?? Absolutely Thank you Lara

About the host

Hosted by Lara and James

Host profile image
My husband, James, is an award winning landscape designer both in Sedona and Gainesville, Florida. A man of many talents he is also a musician, boatsman, pilot, documentary film maker and a lover of nature and travel. I, Lara, have been a massage therapist for over 20 years. I specialize in structural and somatic bodywork and have a private practice in Sedona. My other passions are music, dance, nature, sustainable living and travel. Originally from California I have lived in Sedona since 2001.

Why they chose this property

Just outside the hustle and bustle of west Sedona and yet only a 10 minute drive into town, this property is located in a separate valley and small community called the Upper Red Rock Loop. Driving into this valley you come upon one of the most impressive views of Sedona and Cathedral Rock. It is truly one of Sedona's great skylines.

What makes this property unique

The Garden Casita sits on the upper level of the property and is surrounded by hedges of lady banks roses. In the springtime there are literally hundreds of roses! This gives the casita an added feel of tranquility and privacy. We reside on the lower level of the property which gives privacy for both homes yet we are close enough to be available for our guests.
