Fantastic Home

We were a group of six friends (3 couples). Spent 5 days hiking in Sedona. The house is perfect. Lots of open space to cook and be together. But privacy with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. We loved the hot tub and the outdoor space as well. Well appointed home with everything you could need. Clean and comfortable, felt brand new. Avril was so nice and responsive. We couldn’t have been happier here!

Great time at Prickly Pear!

We had an excellent time staying with Fireside Rentals in Sedona. The house we stayed at (Pickly Pear) was well appointed and decor was top notch. Great location for hiking and plenty of restaurants within a short distance!

Fabulous Stay @ The Prickly Pear

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Prickly Pear. Beautiful accommodations, very comfy beds, fully stocked kitchen and great location. Overall a great place to stay while visiting Sedona. One quick thing to point out is that the showers are 'exposed' in the main house and do not have doors for privacy so if you are sharing with friends, just keep that in mind.

Stunning Home

We stayed here with some friends for a weekend of fun and shopping. The residence was stunning inside and the over garage casita was as well. The home was located close to great restaurants, hiking trails, shopping and a frisbee golf course. We had a great time and would highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Sedona.
