A quaint property atop of a hill with a vast view of the flatlands before the mountain ranges. The neighborhood is very remote, 30 minutes from Sedona. The cottage has all of the typical studio rental amenities like cooking supplies, sitting area, and towels, plus they had a portable bathroom heater, chairs in the garden facing the sunset, and a great from porch. The hosts were especially friendly and thoughtful. The property vibe was safe, serene, and warm.

Nice Place in Rimrock
Great property! Clean, well maintained, comfortable. Great internet. Kitchen and cooking took a little bit of work to maximize but there were lots of options available for meal prep A small freezer would be a welcome addition.

Short getaway
Wow! What a gem and we hope to return. The little cottage is comfortable and has everything you need to hermit. Well appointed kitchen, comfortable furnishings and cool stuff to browse, fast wifi, a great bed! We loved the privacy, the magical illuminated garden with a view, and the superb access to area attractions, which almost seemed like an aside. We checked out Montezuma's Well, got in the river at Red Rock and drove the 89A up to Slide Rock and the DQ! Thanks for sharing your little slice of heaven!

Cool, quiet, relaxing, cozy get-away!
The property was clean, quiet, RELAXING, and peaceful. Perfect for two. Close to the freeway but far enough away to relax and enjoy the scenery. Montezuma's Well was close as well as Cliff Castle Casino, Sedona, Cottonwood and plenty of places to hike. Thank you!

Cozy cottage
Hilltop Haven was a wonderful, cozy place to stay during our trip to Sedona. Rachel and Bruce were easy to communicate with and very helpful with our check in and recommendations for hiking in the area. The cottage provided everything we needed for a short stay in the area. We loved the chairs outside to relax after hiking and to watch the beautiful sunsets. The cabin is conveniently located to access the interstate and a pretty drive into Sedona.

Bruce and Rachel were wonderful and very accommodating hosts! We enjoyed relaxing here after hikes each day. The cottage was cozy and had everything we needed. It was the perfect spot to catch a beautiful Arizona sunset and to stargaze at night. We look forward to returning in the future!

We had an amazing stay at your cottage. It was a perfect place our 3 days of prayers. The cottage was very clean and well managed. We loved the view from the hilltop especially at night; watching the shooting stars in a cool breeze! We would love to come back again.

Blue Cottage Adventure
This was a great place to rest in between hikes and adventures in the Sedona and Cottonwood area. We enjoyed the scenic road and saw a pair of mule deer on our drive up the first night! This cabin has environment-friendly features like an energy efficient water heater and water efficient toilet and shower head with great water pressure. We most enjoyed the back garden at night to watch shooting stars in the Milky Way! The cabin is a great place to enjoy nature.
