Creekside Retreat | Oak Creek Hot Tub Escape

This adorable cottage has two bedrooms and sits at the end of the road in the heart of Sedona on historic Newcastle Island along the banks of Oak Creek. Enjoy the warmth and ambiance of a cozy electric fireplace, adding a touch of comfort to your stay.

Our property is secluded yet close to everything in Sedona. The 2-bedroom cottage plus a queen-sized sofa bed in the living room sleeps 6 and is a cute forest hideaway both rustic and cozy. Think reclusive vacation cabin, surrounded by Oak Creek`s sound in a canyon forest. If using our shared community Creekside Terrace at our property next door, you can sit and relax creek side while listening to the gentle waters and taking in a great book or a calming nap. There is even a hammock hanging creek side. In addition to your private hot tub at the cottage, we have 3 community hot tubs all available right next to Oak Creek. After a day of hiking, you can enjoy the stars and dark skies of Sedona while soaking in a hot tub creek side. We also have a community outdoor covered dining area with a gas grill for guests to enjoy.

For nature lovers, it sits in a bird and wildlife migration sanctuary within walking distance to neighborhood hiking trails. Once on Newcastle Island, it is easy to enjoy the magic of not needing a car for days, enjoying and exploring nature.

Guests also have private creek access via a stairwell marked `47 use only” and is between cabin home #75 and #85. In addition, we also have a private trail right here at the end of the property! If you walk parallel to the creek...past the very last cabin, cabin #95, you will enter the other half of our property. The trail will lead you to easier creek access, chairs, and a hammock. For those who must stay plugged in, wi-fi is good and a large flat screen HD TV is ready for your streaming.

Guests have exclusive use of our entire family vacation cottage, the private yard and hot tub, as well as access to the shared Creekside Terrace, grounds and amenities next door. Enjoy the warmth and ambiance of a cozy electric fireplace, adding a touch of comfort to your stay. Please do not use other private home stairs and please be quiet while walking past neighbor cottages. Please leash all dogs when outside the cottage backyard.

Please be aware that we are not allowed by FEMA to have any fences or physical barriers to the creek, so the creek side amenities are not suitable for young children.

Age and location issues to be aware of: (1) Note this cottage is in flood plain; sacred wild ground. If there is heavy rain to the north, once or twice a year there may be high water levels which makes the wash behind the cabin flow (normally it is empty). There is a bridge for vehicular traffic for ingress and egress to the cabin in the event the wash is flowing. Water usually recedes within 12 hours each time but cannot be guaranteed. (2) Limited parking - only 2 regular sized SUV vehicles parallel parked fit without blocking shared driveway. Smaller pickups fit ok too, but not RVs or large trucks. There is no additional guest parking on Newcastle Island. (3) The cottage roof is thin, so you can hear animals scampering across it, rain drizzling on it, and even tree branches falling onto the roof. Nevertheless the cottage and location are magical, and once settled and relaxed, you should find your stay in the creek forest near the mouth of Oak Creek Canyon peaceful and regenerative. (4) Guests must sign a rental agreement prior to staying.
