The house was beautiful and perfect for a family vacation. The backyard was a great place to enjoy with family after a day of hiking. The house is very clean, kitchen is well stocked and it’s close to all the major attractions in Sedona.

This was the best VRBO I have ever stayed at. Every tiny thing from the cleanliness of the hot tub to the availability of laundry baskets to the abundance of towels was perfect. We came as an adult friend group and are already planning to come back with our kids—they would love it.

Great stay at Doodlebug

We spent two nights at the doodlebug de Sedona during a week’s getaway to Arizona. The house was spotless and spacious and was perfect for our family. We enjoyed the outdoor space and hot tub during the chilly February evenings. The house was well stocked and communication with the owner was excellent. We’d love to return!

Perfect!

The living space, all the backyard games, the view, the location - all just right! The home is spacious but still feels cozy. It was the perfect place for our family. And the hosts could not have been nicer! They even acknowledged our son’s birthday! If ever we are back in Sedona we would stay at the Doodlebug de Sedona!

Great place and awesome trip!

The Doodlebug house is in a great location and is exactly as described. Our kids loved it and we enjoyed not only the outdoor space but both fireplaces in the main living and bedroom. I would only recommend bring soap/ shampoo for the showers. Also it would be nice if the outdoor lights went off earlier than 11pm to enjoy the stars. Great place and highly recommend!

Doodlebug De Sedona was one of the best rental properties we’ve ever stayed in. The house was immaculate and had everything we could have needed.

Fantastic stay!

My family just got back from a week long stay at Ken and Chelsie’s property in Sedona and it definitely did not disappoint! The home was comfortable, clean, and full of amenities that kept our whole family entertained for the entirety of our stay. The home was well appointed and every detail considered. Ken and Chelsie were very responsive hosts as well. When a hiccup occurred with the internet, Ken responded immediately and it was fixed the next day. Our family will definitely be back to the Doodlebug home next time we’re in Sedona!

Doodlebug in sedona!

This was an amazing property inside and out! We enjoyed the spacious stocked kitchen and living area, the king sized beds, and the pool table. The house was super clean! Outside we enjoyed family time taking advantage of the corn hole, hot tub, and fire pit. Such a comfortable house and great hosts. We had no issues but I feel certain if there was one it would have been addressed quickly. Great location for all of the hikes in Sedona. You will not be disappointed with this rental! Thank you for letting us stay in your amazing home!

About the host

Hosted by Kenneth Chlupsa

Host profile image
My wife Chelsie and I are Midwest natives who visited Sedona and instantly fell in love with Arizona and everything it has to offer. We are currently based in Phoenix. We're big fans of hiking, exploring, and soaking in all the incredible scenery—so hosting here feels like a dream. We love sharing our homes because it lets us pass along the same excitement, relaxation, and joy we felt when we first discovered this amazing place.

Why they chose this property

We love this neighborhood because it’s peaceful, quiet, and still just minutes from all the best that Sedona has to offer. It’s also incredibly special to us—Chelsie and I were married right across the street, so being able to purchase a home next to our wedding venue felt like a dream come true. The resort, formerly Poco Diablo and now rebranded as The Outbound, continues to grow, and we’re excited for the new restaurant to open so guests can conveniently walk right across the street to enjoy it.

What makes this property unique

Our property truly stands out because of the incredible amenities and the love we’ve poured into bringing it back to life through a full renovation. Guests can unwind in the hot tub, gather around the fire pit, or enjoy a variety of games like bocce ball, mini golf, cornhole, and an indoor pool table. We thoughtfully designed every detail with our guests in mind, making sure the home has everything you could want — and more — for a fun, comfortable, and memorable stay.
