Private Old Town Oasis WALK to shops and restaurants! CLOSE TO SEDONA & JEROME!
This Prickly Pear option features a two-story home that includes the Prickly Pear Penthouse upstairs and a completely private, handicap-accessible King Suite on the lower level. The home is located right on Main Street in Historic Old Town Cottonwood, just steps from wine-tasting rooms, restaurants, and shopping yet far enough to ensure quite tranquility when in the home.
Upstairs you’ll enjoy a fully private 2-bedroom, 1-bath penthouse. Both bedrooms feature super-comfortable king-size beds with crisp 100% cotton linens and four king pillows per bed. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout the space, which is light, bright, and beautifully maintained. The luxury spa bathroom includes a large walk-in tiled shower, double vanities, and plush spa-quality towels.
The fully equipped kitchen has stainless-steel appliances and everything you need—plates, cookware, utensils, paper products, blender, full-size coffee maker, toaster, margarita and wine glasses, and more.
Downstairs, you’ll have a completely private King Suite featuring a King-size bed, full-size sleeper sofa, large living and dining area, full bathroom, and kitchenette. It truly is a suite fit for a King (or Queen), complete with its own private entrance and handicap accessibility. A large shared laundry room in the building is also available for your use. Enjoy strong, fast 5G WiFi throughout the entire home and property. We’ve partnered with local companies to offer our guests exclusive discounts on area experiences including hot-air balloon rides, helicopter tours, wineries and tasting rooms, horseback riding, kayaking, and more. The property sits on a lush half-acre garden oasis designed for outdoor living at its best. Enjoy multiple outdoor dining and seating areas, a rooftop deck, cornhole, ping pong, a fire pit, pergola, and a stainless-steel gas grill. You’re within walking distance of everything Old Town Cottonwood has to offer—art galleries, bike rentals, wine tasting rooms, restaurants, and shops, plus a small park right across the street. Sedona is just 20 minutes away, Jerome only 5 miles, and the Grand Canyon about 1.5 hours. It’s the perfect blend of convenience and quiet privacy.
PLEASE NOTE We also rent out the front 2-bedroom home, so the backyard and parking area may be shared if it is booked at the same time.
If you’d like full privacy, you can add it to your booking and enjoy exclusive use of the entire property.
Please note: The Prickly Pear Penthouse is accessed by an exterior flight of stairs, so guests must be able to climb stairs to access that part of the home. Enjoy the half-acre outdoor garden oasis from your morning coffee to evening wine—grill dinner, relax by the gas fire pit, or unwind under the shaded pergola. The property is spotless, pristine, and charming.
No overnight guests allowed unless included in the original reservation.

The Prickly Pear Penthouse was the perfect place for our Spring Break trip with grandkids. Clean, bright, and charming with new/modern features just steps away from shops and restaurants. We had a perfect stay and highly recommend it!

Great stay in a great area!
We stayed in the upstairs apartment for a week over Spring Break with our kids. The apartment was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed for an amazing week in Arizona. Old Town Cottonwood was a very short walk away with a ton of great restaurants and shops. As mountain bikers having the state park with fun trails so close was an added benefit. We spent a lot of time in Sedona and the surrounding area but really enjoyed having this quiet getaway in Cottonwood to come back to each evening. We used the large deck and backyard and were very glad to have them both.
The owners were very responsive and I highly recommend staying here.
Very easy checkin/out and owners were great with communication, instructions and responsive when I had questions. We stayed in the penthouse upstairs apartment with two adult couples and were very comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, utensils coffee etc and everything updated inside. Super clean! We will be back!
Great location to explore Cottonwood. Short walk to all restaurants and shops. The rental was very nice and clean . Had everything needed to make our stay .
The penthouse is exactly as represented and even better! The location is A-1, 2 block walk to all of the fun downtown locations and only about 10 mins to Jerome. Need coffee, no worries, they have a fully stocked coffee station, beds are comfortable and we have 4 ladies sharing the one bathroom, which is huge by the way, no problems. Owners are extremely responsive and the property is beautiful I would highly recommend.
Five of us rented this awesome place for my daughter’s bachelorette party. The place is clean, wonderfully equipped and the owners are super hosts! Five stars all the way! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Delightful Beyond Words!!
Fresh and charming decor....wonderful kitchen...patio with grill is perfect....backyard haven...owners were the most friendly and fun and hospitable and "eager to please" hosts we have known. Don't miss this place!.
Highly recommend Glen And Kirsten’s property for Cottonwood and the surrounding towns. Location was perfect, as well as the safety, parking, privacy, cleanliness, and amenities of the property. Communication and the check in/check out process was easy. We were so impressed with our stay and the town of Cottonwood that we began making plans to make this an annual trip! 5 stars all around!
Excellent retreat. Great location within walking distance of old downtown Cottonwood. Beautifully redone, clean, quiet and cozy. Owners were wonderful to deal with and responsive and informative
We made our first trip to Cottonwood this past weekend for a wedding. Staying at this lovely home made the trip even better. The property was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed... we appreciated all the little details. On Friday we made the short walk into old Cottonwood and had dinner at Boccee. It was delicious, but go early as it fills up fast. We highly recommend this property, and hope to return again some day. Thank you for making it easy to leave a 5 Star Review!!!
Our adult children stayed at the penthouse and loved everything about it! We were able to spend time together as a family and allow them the privacy they needed.
The Prickly Pear penthouse was wonderful; just what we wanted; Glen and Kristen were the ultimate hosts, very quick with answers to our (stupid) questions. Felt we were their guests in their house. The deck on the penthouse was the crowning touch, at the last minute our daughter and her family joined us and this gave us so much space to eat, and drink coffee and watch the grandchild playing in the grassy yard below, with a grape filled pergola in the back ground. We so loved it, so clean, well stocked (snacks, coffee, tea, creamer, water, popcorn, sugar etc). You must choose this one! We came from Hawaii, and the house actually reminded us of our turquoise themed beach house ( in the desert though haha). Hope to return someday. thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Relaxing retreat
We had to book last minute and the owners responded immediately. The apartment is beautifully decorated and sparkling clean. It was an oasis in the desert. A short walk from Old Cottonwood and the river. We especially loved watching the full moon rise while sitting on the deck. They had everything we could need in the kitchen and a guide book with things to see and do (including local restaurant menus). This is a great location for birdwatching, too. You are centrally located for day trips to Sedona, Jerome, Prescott and Flagstaff. We will definitely be booking again.

Gorgeous and comfortable house
Every small detail in this house was taken care of. The kitchen was nicely stacked. We loved getting different varieties of tea, snacks and hot chocolate for the kids. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was nice and spacious. The homeowners were very responsive and provided good instructions for check in and check out. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to our friends.
