Incredible Sedona Location
This was our second time at this beautiful Sedona house. It is very clean & well stocked. The views are so picturesque and the wildlife encounters are unbelievable. We saw Javelinas, coyotes, and a family of quail from off the back deck. It was absolutely amazing!! Plus, it is totally pet friendly with a fenced yard. It is a close walking distance into town for restaurants & shopping. We can’t wait to return again!!❤️

Marjorie Fine
4th visit
We love the place and keep returning for the package. The location is perfect, the facility beautifully maintained and the ambiance is just right. We keep bringing friends, cook in and enjoy the beauty.

Marjorie Fine
Repeat visit
Simply wonderful with all the amenities to make the getaway perfect. We even found a free trail pass for hiking. Made a reservation for the fall while we were there.

Susan M Dibbell
Awesome Month
Wonderful home to work and play. Spent the month telecommuting. The location is spectacular--within walking distance of trails and the Uptown. Everything I needed was provided. I'll be back.

Scott Lushing
Amazing
One of the most relaxing places. Clean. Amazing location. Great views. Nice hot tub. Felt like I won a prize to be able to stay here.

Elsa McMakin
Stop Scrolling and STAY HERE!!!
Lovely Home. Perfect Location. Piano, Drum, Deck, and Hot Tub for fun. Peaceful setting with really nice views VERY CLOSE to the main strip. Thoughtful lighting throughout the home and exterior areas. I loved the ease of check-in and check-out. Thanks Jerry and Angie!

Amy Bradshaw
Absolutely Perfect!
Beautiful home, perfect location and plenty of wildlife sightings! We saw javalinas, which made my trip, running through yard. The location is perfect for strolling into Uptown with the tourists then returning to quiet. The scenery is beautiful, great views from the deck. Awesome hiking close by and the hot tub afterwards is great!

Kathryn Tanner
Absolutely fabulous!
We had a great time in Sedona on our "girl's retreat weekend" and can't wait to go back! Lovely house and setting and would definitely book again!

Michele Lodge

The art work throughout the home is amazing ! We always look forward to our weekly stays here! We enjoyed the healing properties of Sedona and the beauty daily!! His home is little GEM !!! It is our home away from home ! We look forward to our next visit !!

Marjorie and Arthur Fine
Repeat visit
We loved the place so much last month we immediately set up a longer repeat trip. Couldn't be better. Location, supplies, cleanliness just right.

Debbie Sedletzky
Beautiful Sedona Property!!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Jerry’s house. There are scenic views from almost every room. Seeing deers & javelinas up close and a fenced in yard for our pup make it the perfect nature paradise. It is immaculately clean and well stocked for cooking & grilling. Plus, an easy walking distance to town provided us with activities and shopping, but evenings were quiet spent in this private location.😊🌵

Wonderful Stay - Forest Villa
We had the pleasure of staying for a month at The Forest Villa in Sedona. It was the perfect get-away for us and our dogs. Jerry's house is inviting, well-equipped and located in a quiet and beautiful neighborhood of Jordan Park. You can walk to town easily or stay hidden-away in the Villa, enjoying the wildlife, red rock views and peace. Jerry is a most gracious host, making our stay extra special by helping us get into a sought-after restaurant for our anniversary. Everything about our stay was seamless and enjoyable. We highly recommend Jerry and his home to other travelers. You will love your stay here. Thank you, Jerry! We will be back again to enjoy Sedona and your special home. Warm Regards from Idaho!

Barbara Davies
Sedona Sunshine
We had a delightful time at Sedona Forest Villa. We really appreciated the attention to details like the soft bath towels, a well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and. a clean, oversized pet bed. Being able to walk to restaurants and shopping was a big plus too. We will definitely consider returning in the future.

Mark Greseth
Perfect for our family
Great place for our family of four. The location is fantastic, feels private yet close to everything. The home was clean, high quality and I can tell the owner takes great pride in his home. Thank you for the great stay and attention to detail.

Debra Hibbeln
Great house, close to trails and Uptown Sedona
Quick access to trails, quiet location but within walking distance or a short ride to downtown. Excellent COVID protocols and very responsive owner. With COVID, we appreciated that this house sat distant from all others. We will come back after the pandemic and actually go to the restaurants and shops that are nearby. We very much enjoyed the wildlife around the house, especially the coyotes and javelinas.

Jennifer Jack
Beautiful Views and Great Location
We enjoyed our stay greatly. The house is in a great location to be able to get out and about walking into town. I also loved the views from the back deck. The house itself was comfortable and had everything that you would need during your stay.

Bryan Rasmussen
Transformative stay
There really isn’t a better place to stay then Sedona Villa. Not just because of the space itself and the beauty of the view etc. but of the person making it all possible. Jerry Gilden. His hosting skills are far beyond the norm. His attention to detail, his taste in art and furnishings as well as his insight to the human condition. His spirituality permeates through the entire property. We are just so fortunate to be friends of his. We had so many magical experiences while staying there. From having deer visit to seeing a shooting star in the massive constellation above are just a few of the examples of this exhilarating experience. It’s hard to heap so many praises on Jerry and the property because that’ll mean just more and more people will come and stay there. We’d like to keep it our own little secret but of course that’s ridiculous so instead of doing that we want to just announce to the world what an incredible person Jerry as well as Glenn. They are the most incredible hosts one could hope for. We can’t wait to come and stay in the newest property which we got a chance to peek out while we were there. Sedona is one most beautiful places on the planet and experiencing it through these properties is the best way to reach Nirvana❤️❤️

Family
Tiny, very old home
The pictures that are posted for the home make it look great. However, pictures are deceiving. It’s basically like a double wide trail. Pretty run down as for the house it self, and tiny. Even for a family of four. I feel the price to rent it , if kept the way it is should be way lower. The ‘yard area’ is all rocks and very hard to walk on. The pans were all rusted and needed to be replaced. It just wasn’t what I was expecting. If I decide to rent again in Sedona, I will make sure to read the reviews, and also pay even more for a luxurious home. Honestly, I couldn’t wait to leave and return to my own house. Oh and you’ll have the owner texting you and watching over you while staying there. The very first day we got there we checked out the entire house and opened the hot tub because we had planned on using it in a couple hours. Btw, the hot tub is basically under the whole house in the garage. Well, within one hour of taking the top off I got a text telling me he could see the lid was open and to shut it if not in use because there was a Monsoon coming. Update, there was no Monsoon that night. The reason we had opened it was because the chemical smell was so strong that I wanted it to air out before we got in it. It made us feel like we were being watched the entire time we were there. Very uncomfortable.

Michael Levitt
Magical is the only word to describe our stay...
We had the most magical experience staying at Land & Nature Lover's Private Paradise. Having dogs always makes traveling wonderful but at the same time, it's important to find places that are truly dog friendly. The house we rented was perfect for that and more. The two bedroom retreat is in the best location. We were literally walking distance from the heart of town yet the home sits at the edge of a forest and is beyond charming and tranquil. The house is very clean and felt spacious. Our favorite part was the large balcony literally facing the trees with views of the red rock. So peaceful and perfect for that morning cup of coffee or drinks at sunset. Right across the street is a charming park and historical museum and we loved walking our dogs there where they had lots of ideal opportunities for great sniffing. Jerry, the owner could not have been more kind and accommodating. The guy is so eager to please and his priority is to make sure that his guests are having the best experience ever. If you love nature yet like the convenience of being close to town and especially if you have dogs...this is an ideal place to stay!

Annie Nava
Mrs.
We took our family for nice getaway. Our home was lovely. Very spacious, clean, and loved the ability to cook our own food. The views were beautiful. We loved eating as a family on the deck. The location is perfect. It’s close to everything, and yet so quiet and calm. We found our home away from home. I highly recommend this forest villa for any occasion whether it’s a romantic getaway or a fun family trip.
