About this property

The Garden Oasis on the National Forest

Welcome to my home! Just renovated, super clean, in a quiet neighborhood 240' from the Sugarloaf trailhead, we invite you for serenity and renewal. Created by an artist (moi) and full of original art, this is a home of beauty. Enjoy the views while relaxing on the sofa, listening to the sound of running water, or book a massage with our neighbor Jacob. We offer easy trail access, fast internet, a complete kitchen, tea / coffee, a laundry area, guide books, free parking.. and peace and beauty....

However the best (and my favorite) part of the property is the 3 level terrace.... Or of course, hiking around Sugarloaf first thing in the morning. You'll be pretty much in the Natl Forest staying here. Check it out!

This is a house of healing, full of light. There are lovely outdoor sitting areas, a place to lock your bike, and lots of flowers and greenery. Roll out the door and head 240' up the street to access the National Forest and miles and miles of hiking trails. Watch the sunset from the side of Sugarloaf, and catch Sedona's amazing star show (we're a dark skies (light free) zone.

There is a separate studio on on the side of the house where Theresa lives. The 2 units are completely separate, but please be aware that there is some noise overlap between the 2 spaces.

This is a special neighborhood. A highly respected Sedona massage therapist, Jacob Massey, lives across the street. Celeste, who does Myofascia release and works on a number of famous athletes based in the PHX area lives around the corner. Both are available for private sessions; if interested, let me know, I'll send you their contact info.

There's plenty of free parking in the carport and in front of the house. As to getting around the neighborhood it's best to walk as it's all of 3 blocks.

We purposely do not have a TV. It's about you time, not distractions.

PLEASE NOTE: Vrbo's algorithm has decided there is space for 4 people to sleep in the bedroom (which I unfortunately can't change).
The house sleeps 4 but not in the bedroom.
There is a fold down sofa couch (full), in the living room, and a twin tri-fold mattress that can go anywhere.

Everything was good. The rental was nice and clean. the only thing that was a little uncomfortable was the unit that was connected to the rental. The person in there was so noticeable we felt like there wasn’t any privacy. the only thing that separated us was a cloth doorway..

My husband and I enjoyed our 3 night stay. The place is convenient to trail heads and restaurants and we loved sitting in the outside areas. There is a gorgeous view from the street, although you can't see it while sitting on the patio. It's an older home, but we liked the style. The bathroom, in particular, could use updating but everything was comfortable and clean. Loved the spider plant!

My husband and I stayed here for a 20th anniversary trip. This listing is in the perfect location for rest and relaxation. We enjoyed the proximity to a wonderful trail in the neighborhood and it felt peaceful away from the busyness of Sedona. We had a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Peggy Sands

Host profile image
Hello! I am an artist, meditator, workshop instructor and graphic designer ...and an active, outdoor person, who bikes everywhere, eats healthy, grows my own veggies, hikes, climbs, etc.
A professional artist, I paint and teach both drawing and painting, and I love to create. Most everything in and around the Garden Oasis I've made. My house is an ongoing art project and love affair. I hope you enjoy staying here as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Sedona is so very beautiful and so powerful. A walk out back in the canyon changes my world in a moment. Time stops – the beauty and majesty of the red rocks leave me in silence and awe. I hope while staying in my home you are also enveloped in this silence and enchanted beauty. "Life is a mystery to be lived, not a problem to be solved."

Why they chose this property

My home has a meditators energy, and we work hard to maintain the silent and peace of the house ...and this magic is palatable when you walk in. It is very clean, relax to the sound of running water from the water feature.
Located in a very quiet neighborhood off the main streets, with almost no through traffic it has a old style neighborhood charm. The national forest is just up the street, yet downtown West Sedona; major supermarkets, (Safeway, Basha's, Natural Grocers, Whole Foods, etc. health food and restaurants are within a 5 minute drive or 15-20 minute walk.. We offer a full kitchen, for easy meal preparation with a 5 stage reverse osmosis water filter.
Essentially, this is a place to find healing and a space to get away from it all.

What makes this property unique

Love, Silence, Peace
Miles and miles of trails start at the top of the street in the National Forest
Dark skies, stars horizon to horizon
Gardens
Massage therapist on site and available to be booked in advance
Water filter
Washer / Dryer
Full kitchen
Outdoor sitting areas
