Time For A Fall Retreat To Sedona

It’s that time of year again. The kids are going back to school and soon everybody will be busy doing their own thing; football practice, band practice, after school get-togethers, etc… This is the time to get in one last getaway before all the craziness ensues. And what better place to connect than in Sedona, Arizona, surrounded by spectacular Red Rocks.

Of course one will need accommodations. Preferably something that is family friendly. The perfect place is the Ridge on Sedona Golf Resort. Located on the Sedona Golf Resort and surrounded by Red Rocks, the Ridge on Sedona Golf Resort offers views galore. But wait, there’s more… This resort features pools, hot tubs, grill areas, fitness, spa services, on-site activities and personal Concierge services. Studio suites offer kitchenette, private patio or balcony and sleep four. The resort is so beautiful one may have trouble leaving, but do; there are so many ways to connect with the family in Sedona.

Want to get up close to those famous Red Rocks? One of the most popular ways is a Jeep Tour. Get the family together in one Jeep and hold on! These tours are very exciting and really take one into the Red Rocks and canyons. How about a Wild West adventure? The Blazin’ M Ranch is fun for the entire family, with cowboy shoot-outs, roping, and more. Then at the end of the day one is treated to a chuck wagon dinner and Western show. Finally, what better way to connect then visiting a natural wonder: the Grand Canyon. In just a couple of hours from Sedona one can be enjoying this National State Park. Once there, one can view The Canyon so many ways; by helicopter, by guided tour or even by donkey!

After all that activity where does one eat? For great family dining visit The Marketplace Café. Located in the Village of Oak Creek, this café is Hollywood-themed and has something for everybody; pizzas and salads to fried chicken and to die for desserts, all at an affordable price. Perhaps all the family togetherness has become a bit too much? Then let the kids eat a pizza in the room and escape to Fournos restaurant. Located in West Sedona, 5-star Chef Ivan Flowers prepares delicious Mediterranean cuisine in an intimate fun atmosphere. Dine on the Mahi Mahi in a citrus tomatillo sauce or the slow-cooked beef brisket in a chile chocolate mole sauce, paired with a wine from the boutique wine list, of course!

Take that one last vacation before the madness of the school year really sets in… Enjoy the family and make the memories that they will cherish forever.
