During our Fall season, many of our restaurants offer live music. Bistro Bella Terra, Oak Creek Brewing Company, Reds, Dahl & DiLuca, Martini Bar, and Shugrue’s Hillside to name just a few!

Just across the parking lot from our inn is a wonderful book store called The Well Read Coyote. This is a happening place. The owners, Joe and Kris, are very supportive of the arts here in Sedona . Quite often there will be a reading, a writer’s seminar or some type of music presentation.
