We were lucky to get into Orchard Canyon Oak Creek Lodge. It was wonderful!!! We rented a cabin with a fireplace looking out on nature. We also were able to sit outside in the morning and enjoy the beautiful views. The meals were wonderful...we decided to have our dinners in our cabin...you can do that...by the fire. The people who work there are lovely and helpful. We would go again...in fact we WILL GO again! Forgot to tell you that the rooms were very clean, not much noise, you're out in the wilderness and in a canyon and oops, forgot to say, there are NO T.V.s. If you want to do computer work, you need to go to the main lodge...very nice place to be. It is expensive, BUT, if you count in the meals it's worth it.

Beautiful hidden gem stay

I've been to Sedona every year, but this was my first time to stay here. When I entered through my car, there was beautiful river, and the garden was also very beautiful. I stayed cabin 4, and it was very cozy and so cute. Not only the hotel location but also stuff services were very incredible. Each of them trying to take care of all the customers. I heard dinner menu was really tasty and it was actually good as I expected! They also have a good selection of wine, so you can enjoy with meal. Overall, I enjoy every single day of my stay, and I definitely come back when I visit sedona again.

Beautiful Location but Needs Improvement

4.0

Beautiful canyon. Mostly tasty food. Dated subpar accommodations and no personalized service, unless you count accommodating food allergies (pretty standard at most restaurants). No one showed us around or even asked us about our stay until they sent a survey after out stay. Staff asked us if a wandering loose dog was ours, that was it. Definitely should not advertise a personalized service experience or charge a steep service charge for zero service-- not even housekeeping was done. Cabins need window cleaning, new beds (they sink in the middle) and new fixtures (like a shower head that an average adult can actually stand under to rinse her hair or sink faucets that allow you turn on hot water without burning your hands) and locks on the doors that are nicer than pad locks. Just wasn't worth the cost in any way. I love small boutique hotels, but this needs some real attention to both facilities and service to bring it up to speed. I was truly embarrassed that I spent nearly $1400/2 nights for 3 people. Expressed this in their survey, but it's been a month and no one has reached out. Not super surprised by that given my stay.

Fabulous gourmet meals. Rustic Cabins. Peaceful walks and hikes abound!

Exceptionally peaceful surroundings with apple orchards directly on Oak Creek. You do have to drive across a stone bridge with NO guard rails to access property on west side of creek. Rustic cabins with private bathrooms and porches for sitting. Very comfortable, cozy, but not the Ritz. Some cabins have a cast iron stove with gas log set on a thermostat for warmth and great ambiance. Gourmet dinners rival 5 star restaurants in Sedona or Scottsdale. You have option for dinner in the lodge dining room, outside patio on lawn with fire pit, or served at your cabin.

You can’t go back

This was our third visit and the first since covid and the ownership/ name change. Much is the same…lovely little private cabins. Quiet, scenic and spacious grounds. However,for us, some changes detracted from the experience. We really enjoyed the social dining experience in the lodge for dinner on past visits…..this is now replaced by options such as eating in your cabin and when we ate in the lodge we sat together…..( you ate only with those in your cabin). Also the limited dinner options which had to be pre-ordered were not of the same quality. The restaurant used to draw in a few diners who were not guests and getting a reservation was difficult. Breakfast in the lodge was still excellent. There was also a noticeable difference in the attitude of some staff. All in all, some of the magic is gone. The friendly hospitality seems to have been replaced by a more business model. We did enjoy our stay but this will be our last visit.

Five Stars!

Our five night stay at Orchard Canyon on Oak Creek was a five star experience. We were a three-generation family of eleven (ages 14-80), staying in a combination of cabins and the Orchard House. Why five stars? First the food; an incredible breakfast buffet, then dinners, made to order, delivered to the orchard house where we all sat around the huge dining room table. Next, the special accommodations for our large group. They don’t make the Orchard house available on a regular basis, but having it made all the difference..that’s where we played games, enjoyed cocktails, and of course dinners..where our fun was always accompanied by laughter and noise that bothered no one. Lastly, the staff was hugely helpful and accommodating.
