Thanksgiving is a holiday that is both loved and hated by hardworking Americans from all over the nation. It is loved for its celebration of thankfulness, family, and food, but it can be hated for its proximity to Christmas, the work and expense involved, and yes, family. We all have that one (or more) family member that is never satisfied; the turkey is too dry, the stuffing is too moist, the forks don’t sparkle enough, and really, Susan, your kids are far too feral!

When the need to not just get away, but to RUN away arises at Thanksgiving, we at Sedona.Org invite you to look in our direction, choosing to take your holiday journey to our red rock town will bring you serenity, happy family memories, and many, many more things for which to be thankful this Thanksgiving in Sedona.

Are Those Views for Real?

You have probably seen the beauty of Sedona in the movies you have watched, but until you see it in person, you just won’t be able to believe that all that color and magic is real. Our homes and condos are strategically placed in the shadows of the most famous red rock formations, and whether you can see Cathedral Rock, Coffee Pot Rock, or Bell Rock from the windows of your Sedona sanctuary or just some other stunning rock formation, the serenity and magic they bring will be the second item on your list of thankful things. (We know your family is number one on that list!)

You’ve worked hard this year, and when the day after Thanksgiving dawns bright and beautiful, the Christmas crush will begin, so take plenty of moments in the early part of your trip to soak in the serenity of those views. Windows all through the house will perfectly frame all the best views, and of course, the views from the patios, balconies, and decks will be even better!

Hobnobbing with the Big Names Over Dinner

No, we aren’t suggesting you invite to dinner some of the celebrities that take joy in the magic of Sedona, we are simply talking about the big-name appliances you will find in our luxuriously appointed kitchens. The names you have always dreamed of, Viking, Bosch, SubZero and so much more may be resting in their assigned places in the heart of the home, and if you decide that you still want to follow the tradition of creating the family meal, they will bring an extra serving of joy to your Thanksgiving feast.

It really is a pleasure puttering around a kitchen in which all the details are considered most important, and as you share the secret ingredients to your favorite holiday meals with the next generation, roll out pie crust on stone counters, and the scents of wonderful fill the house, your feast will be one that will never be forgotten.

The walk from the kitchen to dining room will be a short one, as gracious and welcoming dining rooms will be located just steps away, and as you go back and forth for second helpings, another bottle of wine, and of course, the piece de resistance, homemade pumpkin pie, your day of family, food, and fun will be one that may make you start a new family tradition of taking turkey day in peaceful Sedona.

All About the Family

Our Sedona.Org properties were designed for families, and even as you take the big step of celebrating far from home, you will find that you will still feel at home as you explore all that makes our holiday hideaways wonderful. Waking up early and sitting with a cup of coffee out on the deck may be a new experience, especially with the landscape that appears before you, but turning on the state-of-the-art television in the living room and watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade is a tradition you won’t have to skip.

Our televisions will be so large and so clear, don’t be surprised if you feel like you are actually at the parade, not just watching it from the comfort of your vacation rental! And of course, football follows the parade, quite possibly followed by the first of the Christmas movies. In between, there will be laughter, games played, maybe even some time spent soaking in the hot tub. At the end of the day, your family adventures will be the ones you talk about for years to come, becoming precious memories that you will cherish.
