When Phoenix's summer temperatures soar, find your refreshing sanctuary at Tu'nlii House in Central Arizona's Verde Valley. This 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom eco-certified retreat offers a luxurious escape on Oak Creek, where you can cool off in crystal-clear waters or relax in the shade of majestic Cottonwood trees. Just a short two-hour drive from Phoenix, Tu'nlii House perfectly blends nature, convenience, and sustainable luxury

Although the host does not live on-site, we are connected to you virtually day and night. Please let us know how we can help make your summer stay as comfortable and refreshing as possible.

Escape the scorching heat of Phoenix and enjoy the temperate weather of Cornville, a charming suburb of Sedona where temperatures are often 10-15°F cooler (cool nights). With local wineries and the Page Springs Hatchery nearby, Cornville is the perfect picnic destination to avoid the crowds and beat the heat.

Enjoy full access to the entire space within The Tu'nlii House and its outdoor accommodations. Cool off in the creek, relax in the hammocks under the shade of 100+-year-old Cottonwood trees, or gather around the fire pit on a summer evening. The property features powerful air conditioning, refreshing ceiling fans, and ample shaded outdoor seating areas to ensure comfort during your stay. We purposefully refrained from installing fences on the lower property to allow free range and access for the diverse wildlife inhabiting this environment. Please respect our neighbors and watch for signs highlighting the property boundaries.

"Our girls' trip to this Airbnb near Sedona was fantastic! The house had everything we needed, and the hot tub was a big hit.
