About Vacation Rentals in Sedona

Sedona is a hub of cultural activities, restaurants and cuisine, art galleries, and world-class golf resorts. Off-road jeep travel, hiking, mountain biking, swimming, horseback riding, kayaking, and fishing can be enjoyed in this 'red planet' of Sedona. It is called Red Rock Country due to the huge red monoliths of rose colored sandstone, curiously named Coffepot, Cathedral, Bell, Snoopy, etc., due to shapes resembling these objects that make for an unbelievable visual treat when the sun sets. Sedona is located at the mouth of the beautiful 16 mile gorge, Oak Creek Canyon.

Wherever you head to from your Arizona Vacation Homes, picturesque locations crop up in Sedona! The Chapel of the Holy Cross is the most photographed spots around Sedona because the church appears to shoot out of two spectacular rock formations. This Catholic chapel was designed in 1956 by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. Sedona's hallmark canyon is the geologically dominating Mogollon Rim which was created eons ago from deposits of limestone, mudstone and sandstone. The rim, home to the largest contiguous stand of ponderosa pine in the world, is located in the southwestern boundary of the Colorado Plateau.
