Beautiful home to fit a larger group or family. Rooms and bathrooms were all well stocked with supplies and fresh bedding, great places for gathering and good size kitchen for large groups. The grounds were fun to explore and had fun items to play with outside. Area was close to so many fun places in Sedona to explore.

Sedona getaway

Absolutely heartwarming, cozy and historical, plenty of property to enjoy, short distance to Sedona shops, beautiful 4 mile hike just a mile away. Absolutely amazing for a group to settle down and enjoy the noise of the creek.

Great property in great location

Property was really nice and in great location. Easy to reach property management and their response was quite good Only issue was wifi not working. I wish there would be more fire pits in the backyard and more ganes like table tennis etc.

Family Fun

Great property. Accommodated our family perfectly. Enough space for us all to gather and enjoy all that the property had to offer, but also large enough for us to retreat to our own spaces when needed. The only thing I would change is to add a few nightlights in bed/bath rooms. It gets very dark in Sedona.

Doodlebug Ranch house; a rare treasure

Doodlebug Ranch is a treasure, but there were some glitzes. The QR manual was hard to deal with in the dark when we arrived. The glass door china and glass cabinet in teh kitchen lost a pane and shattered on the floor. The Wifi was an issue as having two networks and passwords confused everyone's devices as the Wifi router wanted to spontaneously switch between them and drop reception.We finally got the swing of the place and had a wonderful time. The kitchen fireplace is a gem, especially on chilly mornings.

The perfect place

The Doodlebug Ranch was more beautiful person than the photos. The whole place was spacious enough for my husband and mines family to hang out during the day and the family that was able to stay at the ranch with us fit very comfortably. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the swing on the tree was the biggest hit with the kids and most of the adults. The only thing we struggled with was getting good signal and WiFi some people it worked well and not for others. Also, there was some misunderstanding with check out we weren’t sure if we needed to let the host know we left before 10am check out so I did get a call around 1pm and it was noted we left at 9:30am. All in all the whole family agreed we should book it again soon. Thank you!
