Sedona sacred rocks is a nice stay. The grounds are peaceful, the main house is beautiful, and the facilities in the gnome home are adequate as well. However, I found myself misled by the horseback riding advertisement. I am a rider of over 10 years, and chose to stay here on account of the horses. I also divulged all of this during the booking process. Since the listing specified ‘schmoozing’ and offering donations in order to ride, I was ready and willing to pursue this seemingly simple path. Unfortunately, I did not see the owner or anyone else at all to get to know them. Upon inquiry about riding, the owner politely informed me that she RARELY takes the horses out, and must get to know people more thoroughly through ‘horse hangout sessions’ which cost 40$. Truthfully, I had paid way more to stay in the tiny home than I would have paid for a hotel with hotter water, because of the horses, and to pay for hangout sessions on top of that, just to be given the opportunity to donate more money seemed over the top. I was not willing to spend endless money or time convincing the owner of my character, or horsemanship, or spiritual aptitude. Because of all this, I suggested she simply change her advertising to exclude the horseback riding, since it is a rarity and has likely duped people before. I only want to write this out to discourage people who want to ride horses from choosing this listing. You may have better luck in better weather, but I wouldn’t hold your breath. All this
