Oak
Creek Canyon Real Estate
Oak Creek Canyon begins
on Highway 89A at Midgley Bridge, just north of Uptown Sedona
and continues for about sixteen miles until it reaches
the “switchbacks” leading up to the Mogollon Rim
and Flagstaff. Traffic can be slow, especially during tourist
seasons, but the beauty is world famous. The
canyon, containing popular Slide Rock State Park, is considered
one of the “crown jewels” of Arizona.
As Highway 89A
ascends the canyon, the high desert vegetation soon gives way
to a canopy of thick ponderosa pines and noticeably cooler temperatures.
Creek front properties are plentiful, allowing you to fish from
your backyard. Housing ranges from modest to luxurious, and provides a retreat from the Phoenix area summer heat.
