Jerome
The old copper-mining town on Cleopatra Hill, now full of galleries, tasting rooms and big views. Its streets are steep and narrow, so take the tow car, not the rig.

Before you book
Plan your stay
Everything that decides whether Sedona View fits your rig, your dates and your budget, in one place.
Our take: a big, plain hilltop park with genuinely great views and a quiet, dark-sky setting, but few amenities and mixed reviews. It suits self-contained RVers on longer stays more than travelers looking for resort comforts, and it’s a 40-minute drive to Sedona.
