This is the perfect base camp for Sedona/Flagstaff if your plan each day is to head out in the morning and come back in the evening. Why? The rooms are perfect for this kind of stay in that they are very clean, modern and even a bit chic. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfy. The teenager reports the hide-a-bed couch is “meh”. It would be fine but it crinkles when you move. The shower/bathroom is clean, modern, and the skylight is a nice touch. The kitchenette is perfect for storing water/leftovers, and reheating leftovers. Each room had its own wall AC unit which was very appreciated. The views are amazing, and even though the rooms are set-up like an old-timey roadside motel, we never heard our neighbors on either side and from the master bedroom we couldn’t hear the traffic on 89 (but the teenager could here them on the couch).
I wouldn’t choose this place if my goal was to spend significant time during the day there because even though it has two separate spaces, it is kind of small, and there isn’t a lot to do in the rooms or on the property. It also is kind of basic in terms of amenities. No cook top, oven, or very many cooking supplies. No tissues, shampoo, or conditioner in the bathroom. It does seem best utilized as great place to crash at the end of a fun day.
Activities and time to those:
- Sedona 10-15 mins
- slide rock state park, 5 mins
- West Creek Trail, 10-15 mins.
- Berizona, 40 mins
- Snowbowl, 1 hour
I love Oak Creek and this is a great place to stay and explore the many wonders of the area. Would definitely stay again.
