Welcoming and what a location!


We found this amazing spot to stay for a few days in Sedona and are so glad we did!! We stayed in the Vortex Vista and it was perfect for our first stay in the Sedona area! The new owners are FABULOUS and very welcoming. The level of detail they put into furnishing and stocking the rooms is lovely, and the breakfast they provide was great (they bring it the afternoon before, so you can eat on your own schedule in the morning). We were able to walk to Bell Rock & Courthouse Butte with the "Slim Shady" trail right out the back patio. Lots of restaurants are walking distance and it's a short drive to Uptown Sedona or West Sedona for more adventuring. We will definitely be back and recommend the Cozy Cactus to anyone!

THIS IS MY 12TH TIME AT THE COZY CACTUS AND IT NEVER DISAPPOINTS.


This time I was so excited to stay in the new Court House room (house). It was absolutely perfect. It has lots of natural dreamy light and the most epic view. Every room has Bell Rock in the mix. I did my usual hike 2x day literally steps away from my room. This place truly has it all.

This is my home away from home. Thank you for always making me feel so warm and cozy in your perfect retreat.

PERFECT IN EVERY WAY!


The hosts have thought of everything. Our room, the vortex vista, was comfortable and clean. It had an amazing view from our private balcony. Being able to walk out the door, past the spacious patio with lots of seating, firepits and umbrellas to the excellent hiking trails was so convenient. The neighborhood in Oak Creek was quiet and less hurried than downtown Sedona. Parking is convenient. Highly recommend this special spot.
