My wife and I traveled to Sedona on our honeymoon in 1997. We decided to return for our 10th anniversary. in 1997, we stayed at the Canyon Villa inn B&B, which was an amazing stay, but this was even better.

We traveled with friends, and stayed in the Pinion Pine room. The room was almost too comfortable (if that's possible). I honestly felt myself picking up after myself and using coasters, which is unheard of when I travel.

The attention to detail that Phil and Dee have taken to make their inn a perfect stay is amazing. The handmade beds were fantastic. Phil was extremely helpful in determining what sites to see, and Dee's breakfasts were incredible.

Being from the east coast, being woken by coyotes howling in the middle of the night was a lot of fun. Do not miss the sunrise from the roof observation deck.

Coffee was always ready when we woke, and an amazing breakfast was ready at 8:30 am.

We highly recommend the Dream Maker to anyone traveling to Sedona and want to experience a B&B the way it should be...and be sure to feed the llamas.

Phil & Dee are so laid back and welcoming. They have built a beautifully relaxing and comfortable B&B. We were there mid week during the monsoons so not many guests but even when we did have company in the house it was very quiet and peaceful. We stayed in the Tuctu Suite which in my opinion was the best room. The bathroom was gorgeous. Loved the indian art work and red rock views. It felt like we had the place to ourselves.

My boyfriend and I planned a 2 day trip at the end of July to celebrate his birthday. The Dream Maker was so amazing and relaxing that we booked an extra night! Phil was one of the nicest men we have ever met and his wife Dee was also extremely kind although we did not see her much.

We stayed in the Victorian Suite and we loved it! The king sized bed with feather mattress was so comfortable and the room was adorably decorated. The bathroom had a claw foot tub that both my boyfriend and I took advantage of!

Breakfast is served in the common room at 8:30 a.m. Dee is an amazing cook. I went down for breakfast every morning during our stay. We were served a scrumptious breakfast pie one day, french toast the next day, and on the final day a breakfast casserole with home-made biscuit!

Since it was my BF's b-day I made arrangements with Phil and Dee before our arrival to surprise him. They had a birthday balloon and chocolate covered strawberries with a personalized message on the plate in our room when we checked in and the next day a birthday cake in the common area. When we went down to leave for the day, there it was, a beautiful chocolate masterpiece that was ordered from a local bakery. They set out candles and matches along with plates, napkins and forks for the 2 of us. We did not want to eat the cake just yet as we were meeting my dad for lunch so we put it in the fridge for later. I called and asked Phil if we could bring my dad and stepmom back to enjoy the cake with us and he said we could. When we got back they had set out additional plates, napkins and forks. We thought that was very thoughtful! They really helped me make his birtday memorable!

Our stay was fantastic and I can't wait to return. I have 2 suggestions that would have made it a perfect trip.

1. Phil and Dee frown upon eating meals in the rooms. This is because there is no table or anything in the rooms so I understood. Other B&B's we have stayed in allow you to eat in the room, even delivering your breakfast and giving you trays or having a table within the room on which to eat. Since this one did not, my BF missed 2 breakfasts because he slept in and I could not get him up to get dressed and go down. (I rubbed it in about how good they were). This did not hamper our trip at all as he rarely eats breakfast anyway. They did let me bring the food up one day when I asked but I could tell they really did not want me to. Phil explained to me their reason, that sometimes you get disrespectful guests who eat in the bed and make messes. We did not do that, we sat on the floor even when we ate Dee's delicious cookies. It just would have been nice to have the option.

2. A screen on the blacony door would have been nice. The place uses an evap cooler so we wanted to leave the door open to let in the fresh Sedona air. A screen door will help keep the bugs out.

Our trip was fabulous. The property is amazing. They have adorable llamas that you can feed and their dog, Patrick was super friendly! We loved the place and can't wait to return. Don't let my suggestions scare you away if you are interested in the Dream Maker! They by no means made our stay less enjoyable. When in Sedona we will never stay any place else!

Thank you Phil and Dee for having such a beautiful, realxing place and for making his birthday so special!

Sedona itself is one of the most beautiful places in the world - peaceful and very relaxing. Our stay at the Dream Maker really completed our experience. We are a group of girls in our mid-late twenties and were traveling with the intention of getting away from our busy lives and spending some quality time together.

The Dream Maker is set back off Hwy 179 in a residential neighborhood, but manages to feel private and secluded as the property is shaded with trees and delicate landscaping creating the feel of being nestled in the mountains.

Phil greeted us and gave a brief "tour" of the common area and our room. We stayed in the Pinon Pine Suite which has it's own patio/sitting area with a hammock, two hanging chairs, rocking chair, etc. The room felt very cozy. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom very large - w/ a sink, toilet, stand up shower (w/ curtain) and two person jetted tub. There were plenty of towels, body wash, lotion, etc. Side note: the countertop in the bathroom is very high (i didn't mind it) but if you are very short, you may wish to request a step stool...there may have been one in our room somewhere?

We also got to check out the Victorian Suite which has a HUGE bed w/ a matress topper that looked very luxurious!

The common area includes a dining table, sitting couch, sink and refrigerator for your use. After reading about Dee's favorite recipes online, we were looking forward to a real treat - but unfortuantely she did not not make any of the recipes posted. I have stayed at a few other BB's and one other in Sedona. Breakfast was definitely great, but not outstanding. We were served home made banana nut muffins (delicious), eggs, sausage and a fresh fruit in yogurt w/ granola. The second morning we were served Breakfast Pie which was eggs, sausage, avocado, etc...in a pie crust. It was served again with the banana nut muffin and fruit/yogurt/granola. Being that I rarely get to each much more than cereal in the mornings, the breakfasts were super, I can't complain. They were delicious and very filling. There was also fresh orange juice and coffee available. It just all depends on what you are expecting :)

The inn keepers were also very friendly and helpful with regard to offering up restaurant recommendations and things to do. As suggested by Phil....I HIGHLY recommend the Cowboy Club (Silver Saddle Room) for dinner and also Cuchina Rustica, which is just across the street from the Dream Maker. We had truly OUTSTANDING dinners at both restaurants. A very fine dining experience, reasonable prices and exceptional food.

Overall....the Dream Maker was a very peaceful experience and we would most definitely return. In fact, we can't wait to go back!
