Located just steps away from the banks of Oak Creek in Sedona, Briar Patch Inn is a nine-acre bed and breakfast with 19 quaint, charming cabins.

Continually ranked the #1 B&B in Arizona, this magical getaway is the perfect place to escape from the chaos of everyday life and reconnect to nature.

From family cabins with full kitchens, living spaces, and multiple bedrooms to cozy, intimate chalets for two, the inn is ideal for any occasion.

All the properties are furnished with Southwestern charm and Native American arts & crafts, adding a uniquely Arizona flair that makes this little hideout so very special.

Many of the cottages do have either a full kitchen or kitchenette, but, at least for breakfast, cooking won't be necessary.

A buffet-style spread is served each morning, featuring South African seven-grain bread, quiche, homemade granola, steel-cut oats, boiled eggs, fresh fruit, juice, and many more scrumptious offerings.

As relaxing as the cabins are, the real treasure lies just beyond the doors.

Lush oak and sycamore trees line the banks of the creek, its spring-fed waters flowing gently between towering red rocks that characterize Sedona.

Comfortable seating on your own private patio or balcony offers a peaceful space to take in garden or waterfront views.

Read a book, enjoy the scenery, or even take a nap as the sounds of nature interweave into a meditative tune.

There's also a fireside deck where you can mingle with other guests at the inn.

Enjoy a glass of wine and dinner by the hearth as you share stories and laughter mere steps away from the creek.

Rates vary depending on which cabin you choose, ranging from $295 to $560.

An extra $30 is added for each person after two.

Measures have been put in place to ensure the safety of guests during this time. Visit the inn's website or Facebook page to learn more.
