Unique Shopping, Great Sights

The Village of Pine is nestled in a mountain valley 90 minutes NE of the sweltering Phoenix heat. Perched at 6,000 feet, we’re cradled between the Mogollon (MŌ-gee-on) Rim and Strawberry Mountain.

Wandering Elk Cabin is your ideal base camp for day trips through Sedona and Montezuma's Castle, but once you arrive, there's so much happening right here. FYI, Pine has some of the best restaurants and grab-and-go food stands you'll find anywhere in Northern Arizona!

When it comes to shopping for interesting furniture, accessories and rustic "chic", you'll find great choices in the little village of Pine that you won't find elsewhere.

Not to Miss Activities

Jerome

The old mining village atop Mingus mountain was a bustling hillside metropolis. When Phelps Dodge Corporation had exhausted copper production, there was a mad rush when gold was discovered. Once the gold rush dried up, locals and artists transformed the steep streets of Jerome into a cliff dwelling crafts enclave.

Lavender Farm

Arrive in the parking lot of The Lavender Farm and you'll be drawn in by the soothing aromas. The craftspeople there create soothing, luxuriously moisturizing balms, lotions, edible spices and calming candles.

Montezuma's Castle

Montezuma Castle protects a set of mostly intact cliff dwellings inhabited by the Sinagua people, a pre-Columbian culture related to the Hohokam and other indigenous peoples of the southwestern United States, between approximately 1100 and 1425.

Rusty Pine Cone

Rusty Pine Cone offers one-of-a-kind cabin decor, quilting accessories, yard art and unique wind-catchers that you will not find anywhere else.

Sedona

The Red Rocks of Sedona Draw people in from all over the world. The mystical hue of the red rocks and the energy of the Sedona Vortex. Is it real or is it magic?

The Honey Stand

The Honey Stand is a family owned old business selling several varieties of raw Arizona honey in addition to a variety of jams, fruit butters, salsas and condiments. Our products are preservative free and many are salt and sugar free

Tonto Natural Bridge
