Sedona is one of Arizona's premier tourism, recreation, resort, arts and cultural, and retirement centers.

Located at an altitude of 4,500', Sedona escapes the desert heat of Southern Arizona and the mountain snows to the north with either just a short drive away.

Sedona's location at the mouth of renowned Oak Creek Canyon...

and at the center of the state's legendary Red Rock Country offers spectacular panoramas, four delightfully mild seasons, plenty of sunshine and clean, fresh air.

Highway 89A through Oak Creek Canyon was Arizona's first designated Scenic Highway and was named by Rand-McNally as one of the most beautiful drives in America. The area is the second most visited site in the state after the Grand Canyon, with the Forest Service estimating that four million people visit the area annually.

Established in 1902 but not incorporated until 1988, the community was named after Sedona Schnebly, an early settler. Sedona spreads across the boundaries of two north central Arizona counties, Coconino and Yavapai, and is completely surrounded by the Coconino National Forest. Incorporated Sedona and the unincorporated areas in Oak Creek Canyon, the Village of Oak Creek, Red Rock Loop Road and the canyons to the west are collectively known as the Greater Sedona Area.

Wildlife and Sedona lodging get together

Sedona has activities for everyone including year round sightseeing and hiking, jeep rides, fine restaurants, outstanding shops and diverse art galleries. Visitors can take a jeep ride into the backcountry or view red rock monoliths from horseback or hot air balloons.

At Moestly Wood Sedona Bed and Breakfast, you are within viewing distance of Sedona's most photographed red rock formation "Cathedral Rock", just minutes away from the beautiful Crescent Moon Park, featuring Red Rock Crossing, a wonderful place for a pleasant walk or hike.

Red Rock Country has been the setting of many motion pictures - especially Westerns, and continues to be a favorite location for all forms of filming - motion, video & still.

After enjoying all that Sedona has to offer, including Red Rock State Park and Slide Rock State Park, many visitor sites such as the Grand Canyon, Jerome, Meteor Crater, Sunset Crater, Indian ruins and Native American Reservations are easy day trips.
