Location & Getting Here
Finding Sky Ranch Lodge
Sky Ranch Lodge sits atop Airport Mesa at 1105 Airport Road, Sedona, Arizona 86336 — a quiet perch above town with what Forbes called the best red-rock views in Sedona. The family-owned boutique lodge is set on acres of botanical gardens, minutes from Sedona's restaurants, galleries, and trailheads.
Sky Ranch Lodge is about 120 miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport — roughly a 1 hour and 45 minute drive north into red-rock country. Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is a closer regional option at under an hour away.
Sedona sits at 4,357 feet above sea level, giving it four mild seasons and crisp, clear light year-round. Spring and autumn are especially popular at Sky Ranch Lodge for comfortable temperatures and golden-hour color across the red rocks.
