Our family shared a wonderful vacation in this lovely home. This is a great place to relax and recharge after a day of Arizona adventures, and we especially loved the large deck overlooking the Red Rocks and golf course. The 3 bedroom, 3 bath plan is perfect for a family gathering. We would recommend this home, and hope to make a return trip soon.

Oakcreek Golf Course Home

Date of Stay: 10/15/11 Review Submitted: 10/25/11

Our stay at this home was very enjoyable for everyone in our party. The beds were comfortable, linens provided were quality. We especially liked having a large entertainment area that opened to the deck with the incredible views of greenery and red rocks. We used the fulled equipped kitcken every morning for breakfast and then had our coffee on the deck before we started our vacation days in the Sedona. What a difference from staying in an hotel! Relaxing and carefree living. The owners are very proactive and want your stay to be the best experience for all. Yes, we would recommend to others and we would love to stay another week in this great property.

My husband and I truly enjoyed staying in this "home with a view". Not only did we look out the windows to the gorgeous Red Rocks, but could also enjoy watching, and yes, ducking the hummingbirds. Both feeders were filled when we arrived, and were emptied by the time we left. Bird watchers can delight in also seeing quail and bluebirds. I was delighted to find Henckels Kitchen Knives as well as a large selection of glassware, cookware, and dishes. This is a home you can use strictly as a destination, and never feel as though you have to leave.

Great Stay in Sedona!

I just returned home from a 5 night stay in this great home with an ideal location in Oakcreek Sedona. We were there for a family trip with my grown children and their spouses. Did lots of hiking and four-wheeling which was near by. The grocery store was almost walking distance and the views out the back patio/deck were amazing! We even walked on the golf course in the evening and were surprised to have a Cougar cross our path one night! No lack of wild life with humming birds, Cardinals, Blue Jays and Cottontail Rabbits abounding. The house was the just right for us. We did have to clean the grill before it was usable but all in all a great stay. I hope to come back one day!

Beautiful Views and Relaxing Atmosphere

Date of Stay: 08/07/11 Review Submitted: 08/16/11

We stayed for a week in this wonderful home and we were quite pleased upon arrival to see it met up to expectations and from the beginning The owners were very informative and a pleasure to deal with. The house is very spacious and large picturesque views out the fully glassed panels in Great Room. We had both Mothers who are in their 70's with us and they were in Awe at the views. The house is very relaxing and has all accommodations that you could possibly need for your stay. This home is beautifully decorated and furnished, clean and well maintained. It has a great view out the back and a nice patio that wraps around the back of the house. We found the home close for hiking and not far from Sedona, about a 15 min drive to town. We visited twice our favorite restaurant Elote. We look forward to staying here again next year.

We very much enjoyed our time in this Sedona home. It has a great view and is very convenient to dining, shopping, golfing and hiking. It was also very clean and has many good TV and satellite channel options. The owner is also a good communicator and easy to work with. Would definitely consider staying here on our next trip to Sedona.

We just returned from our week stay at this property. The view is fantastic, lots of birds and watching the quail and rabbits is a delight! The King bed is simply divine. Well stocked and great TV. Close to everything. We enjoyed our week there and would stay again.

Visit in VOC at William's home

Guest: Bob and Marilyn (Racine, Wis.)
Date of Stay: 03/01/11 Review Submitted: 04/28/11

We stayed at Al and Valerie's VOC home for the month of March and enjoyed it as much as the first time 2 years ago. Since we have another stay planned, that pretty well speaks for itself. The view is beautiful, the deck great, all things in good working order and is easily accessible to the destination of one's choice. Al and Valerie are very easy to work with and very prompt with any of your needs. We are looking foreward to our next visit.

Al and Valerie, We've been here one week and wanted to let you know we're thoroughly enjoying your house. It is far cleaner and better equipped than other vacation rentals we've tried, and everything works. We've spotted javelinas and a rabbit in the yard and are feeding the hummingbirds. We've been on great hikes every day. Life is good. Dick and Louise

Wonderful Home, wonderful location

Guest: Martha (Baltimore, MD)
Date of Stay: 06/24/10 Review Submitted: 09/23/10

This home was the perfect place for our family vacation. It was a beautiful "home away from home" with a lovely view and nice deck. The inside was clean, spacious, and we appreciated all the amenities. We spent a lot of our vacation biking. We were within biking distance to many great Sedona sites, like Oak Creek and Bell Rock. If staying here, I would recommend having a vehicle or renting a bike from the nearby bike rental shop in Village of Oak Creek. The homeowners were wonderful to work with. They made each step very easy for us. I would definitely recommend this vacation home to others.

Enjoyed Our Stay

Guest: Bob and lynda (Central NH)
Date of Stay: 06/12/10 Review Submitted: 10/21/10

My wife and I wanted a place to really feel the lifestyle in Sedona. We were very pleased with the home, it was clean, well kept and everything was "as advertised". The ability to keep the car in the garage was a big plus, internet worked well too. Great to have ice available every morning for our day trips from the freezer! The location is quiet, easy access to Oak Creek, downtown Sedona, and all the sites. Great views out the back over the golf course which we enjoyed every morning as the sun rose over the hills. Only problem was lack of outdoor light by the lock box as we arrived after dark.

Loved Village of Oak Creek location

Guest: jkb1941 (Chicago)
Date of Stay: 01/15/10 Review Submitted: 04/01/10

We recently returned from 2 months at Al and Valerie's house. It was wonderful. The Village of Oak Creek has a very nice small-town feel, yet is just a few miles and a beautiful drive from Sedona proper. It is very convenient to I-17, which is used to go to both Flagstaff and Phoenix. The house is lovely and very livable, with beautiful views of the red rocks in the back and the mountain in the front. There are so many hummingbirds that it was difficult to keep the feeders full! And the quail in the back yard are so cute! We loved walking the golf cart path, which during the winter is available until 11 am.

This was our first trip to Sedona, and Al and Valerie's home on Chino Trail was a perfect place to stay. It is close to 2 fantastic golf courses and Sedona. Has all the comforts of home, 2 tv's and wi-fi. It was very clean. The setting is quiet and secluded from the neighbors. You can take a walk on the golf course in the evening, or relax on the wonderful deck and enjoy the incredible red rock views! Patti, Sacramento, California

Vacationed in this home week of July 24-31, 2009. It was all it was advertised to be and more. Al & Valerie have provided some amenities that ordinarily do not come with other rentals. If you are looking for a great rental, this one is it. I certainly hope to return here again. The view from the wrap-around deck is awesome. Several of the rooms inside the house also enjoyed that view. The use of the garage was very much appreciated. A bonus for Laptop users, WiFi access came with the house. In addition, a Red Rock Pass was supplied and is needed to park in many scenic & hiking stops in the area. I give this place all thums up.

I believe we were the first renters in Al and Valeries's Sedona home. We stayed a month and were very impressed with the views the condition of the house and the quality of the appliances and linens. The most impressive thing was the abundance of wildlife who inhabit the barranca off the back deck. Wonderful vacation home. Owners, very considerate and a pleasure to associate with.

I have emailed them and asked for their comments - hopefully some will respond, but I realize it is not a priority for them. If you rent from me, I hope you will leave a comment here for future renters.
