- We do a downtown Cottonwood Arizona virtual tour. In the tour we explore the historic downtown area along the Verde River. Cottonwood is cheaper than Phoenix, cooler temperatures than Phoenix and a lot less hustle and busste. So for those of you considering a high desert option to Phoenix you may consider Cottonwood. Cottonwood has a few other towns across the Verde Valley you may consider such as Clarkdale, Cornville, Jerome and Camp Verde.

Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

thanks for your videos
Been there a couple times. If I ever decide to move to Arizona, Cottonwood is where I will go. My wife and I always make it to Nic's for dinner.
My Grandfather was a moonshiner in Cottonwood and ran moonshine through the Canyon when it was one lane. Big on the moonshine there during prohibition.
Cottonwood Dairy Queen is possibly the best I’ve ever experienced in my life. The old way. I loved everything about Cottonwood, AZ.
1966, I went to a two room school house. I was in the first grade. I would love to retire here. I was born in flagstaff. Sure miss arizona. Now in Oregon
Lived in AZ for nearly 6 years and only 2 weeks ago I finally drove through cottonwood, I’d say that may be the single best part of the entire state
Wrong 😂😂😂
Your doing AZ a service by doing these video. THX
I lived in Sedona in 1971 and they bused us kids to Cottonwood for school. Boy, it’s all grown.
I would have loved to have lived there way back then, half a century ago.
I stopped in Georgie’s Cafe on the home from Sedona. Great service, home feeling of an atmosphere.
I lived in Cottonwood from 1993 -1999, really laid back then. It looks like a scaled down Sedona without the red rocks. I can barley recognize it now. Back then the only wine you could get was from a liquor store or supermarket. Nice camera work by the way.
They're capitalizing on the foo foo stuff 😀
Maynard changed that sh!t… :)
@@jamiestarr3086There is tarot, crystals, incense, and chakras, and then there is just telepathy on the less shallow end of things. Image-conscious people focus on being psychic and smarter than others. Real people focus on telepathy, social equality, and honesty. One idea is still based on Christian ideas. The other is not rooted in Christianity at all. When human beings are friends, they have REAL (developed) personalities within. All it takes is humor and honesty.
Thank you!! Loved the music and your laid back demeanor and intel on shops. God Bless you!!
saludos from Patagonia Argentina, thanks because your video and trips
I appreciate the slow pans, and the opportunity to freeze the video and read the various signs and plaques. One is more inclined to take the time to read them from the screen, than when actually in these areas.
I love that huge antique store there.
I was there last week, and met up with a childhood friend of mine there that owns a consignment/antique/collectible shop on Cherry St. It was the first time that I had seen him in 45 years! Thanks for the Vlog!
Great!
I had a beer and a cigar at The State Bar last time I was in Cottonwood. Love that place
Love the city just got home from there. I know this video is a couple years old but I don’t think there were sub 200k house there then. My last trip there about 3 or 4 years ago a new 4 bed, two bath house about 1800sq ft was $380k
This is true,
All of Verde has went up exponentially since I moved to Sedona in 2010.
Just so ya know, Cottonwood also has an Airport, it's an uncontrolled Airfield that has a paved runway approx. 4250 ft, and also sports a night time Beacon. Been to an Air Show there before, really a nice Place! 👍 😉
Your videos are phenomenal. I grew up in Arizona and have been to Sedona many times. I don’t know Cottonwood at all. Maynard changed the vibe of that area completely. It’s crazy… lol
My granddaughter and her husband moved to Cottonwood about two years ago. They now have a son, actually my great grandson!! A retired senior here.
How sad compared to when I lived and worked there back in the 70's.Most of the 'hippies' lived up in Jerome. I used to drive CTI trucks based out of Clarkdale. My in laws owned a restaurant called "The natural Gourmet". All organic beef etc. And now instead of being an old town nice and quiet,it's been gentrified and looks more like a giant hippy store. Anybody remember Alfredos Mexican restaurant? Les Paul used to drop in once and a while and play guitar with Alfredo,all for the price of a dinner. Sometimes 'being discovered' only helps out real estate agents I guess. Oh yeah,best steak dinner in Cottonwood back then was the WhiteHorse. Last time through there,it was a sports bar. They used to have the best damn Porterhouse steaks on the planet. Sigh...
I completely understand your nostalgia. I was born and brought up in Flagstaff way back in 50's and 60's. Worked at Wigwam curio shop, and loved the 'Pow Wow' parade every year. My favorite place was slide rock in Oak Creek. All such good memories! 🤔🤗
The world is constantly changing . I’m sure the people who lived there in the 30’s and 40’s weren’t to happy when their town started changing in the 60’s and 70’s.
@@johnfinnegan8634 I'm sure you're right. Time and tides...
Don't skip Jerome!!!! That town is the best!
Great video, Jeff. Enjoyed the chilled out folksy vibe.
Moved to Arizona when I was 6 and lived here for 7 years
I LOVE Arizona!!!
Cottonwood is a cool little town. Worth stopping in
I stayed at the Tavern Hotel years ago. You had to check in at the Tavern and you got a :free" beer.
I am really enjoying these little tours of cities in AZ!! I find them very interesting and helpful. You are a great videographer and narrator. Thanks for sharing!
Another great tour. Yes, I will add this town to my growing list of places to visit. Wishing you a super week. Stay safe. Hugs Susan
Thank you for sharing video sir ! Watching from Japan.
Yay!!! You did it! Thank you. I think I’ll forward this to our realtor. THANK YOU!
I live here in Cottonwood! NICELY DONE!!!!! :D
I'm considering moving out that way at some point. Do you find it's easy to get in and out on 17 or does it get jammed up quite a bit?
@@zendiggity Easy access to I17 from here. 17 only gets jammed up down near Phoenix. Quick to Jerome, Sedona & Flagstaff.
@@juliamack9543 Oh that's awesome! Thank you so much for the fast response.
Thanks for the great videos and tours.
I remember a song, maybe from back in the '70's called " Peaceful Verde Valley". I wonder is it about here?
You are determined to make me come to AZ. I just couldn't watch your tour of Jerome yet. That is my Ex's name. Blah!😁
Visited Old Town a few times. Nice place.
Really enjoyed this Jeff, thank you
I'm enjoying living in Arizona through your videos, this one is especially nice. I visited Phoenix back in 2005, just days before hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans; I was visited my friends Joseph and Yale in Scottdale at Razormaid. We routinely went on nightly walks, the dry heat was kinda nice compared to the warm humidity here in Alabama where I now live---I lived in Denver CO for about nine years, I loved the warmer months there...also low hunidity, in fact very dry cold air in the winter which required lip balm and hand mosturizer, I wasn't used to that. Plus dry hands made it difficult not to damage my dress ties getting ready for work---dry scales on my hands would damage the threads if I wasn't careful 🙂
Stayed in Cottonwood a few times...loved it!
Traffic in cottonwood old and new is trafficy . A few wineries outside of camp verde.
At first blush, Cottonwood is somewhat nondescript. Reminds me a little like Santa Paula in Ventura County California. But the wine tasting and the shops are quite appealing. 🌲🍷 🌵
I know Santa Paula! Have not been there for awhile, but has that same "tranquility feel" about it.
Me and my mom recently took the Verde Canyon RR and had dinner in Cottonwood. I was surprised by all the hipsters that were there! lol I really wanted to check out that dirt walk you took towards the end down into the natural verde area but it was night time and it was doing that dusting of snow in Jerome so it was too cold...guess I got a reason to go back!
Ace, thx Jeff, my folks and friends love these, your vids supplement my vids xxx We went to Verde Ranch RV resort, Camp Verde, a month ago, we got sunburnt after spending too much time in the RV park pool lol. We didn’t go to Cottonwood, as we spent all our time in the RV park, so thx again
Cottonwood like Sedona was much better and a greater place to live before the tourist moved in. Now all you have are crowded streets higher prices, Traffic congestion, No real Drs. Now both are more expensive to live in and not family friendly. In the early days we could go to any river and have a picnic or go to the lake. Now all of that if fenced off or/and charge you for going there. I took myself a tour so I know, I lived there till I left in 1981. Would never go back there to live again.
Great video again. I’m going to stop there next time .
Cool video.
I was born in cottonwood
Nice video thank you
beautiful, great info for our next trip in march 2021, thanks a lot
Great video! Thanks!
Awesome video.
Being someone now disgusted with Calif. This was very enjoyable.
I live in the UK and since I was a kid wanted to move to the US and specifically to California. May I ask you why you r disgusted with California? thank you
Beautiful, Hope it stays small !!
Too late.
Lake Pleasant is beautiful but I haven't gone there... Pls do a video there!
Show Low, Show Low, Show Low, xxx in advance, we want to summer there, we got gazumped on a house there, we will try again next spring to find a place there.
How did you not bust out laughing...um the doggie...doggie style...anyway another great video
Good Video better their than Tucson and the insane heat in Phoenix.
Love this video ❤
Crazy tony is my uncle and never knew my name had such a stance until I visited a few weeks ago for the first time in about 8-10 years. I suggest visit it if ya like crazy
1500 square foot house there is $350,000 now. Thanks to Sedona booming beyond belief.
Cottonwood is a bad joke.... I lived there!
Cottonwood is not all friendly and welcoming, I lived and worked there almost two decades. It’s not as bad as the city life but it’s not always chill either
@@mimi7914 man factors including age and age of your children if you have any. As a blue collar guy it took a long time to make friends because the area has so many different circles of people. Overall I really miss it but it can be hard to find your groove.
Great video! What is that nice chill out music you have in the background for most of the video? Either the song or artist or even the genre? Thank you
Cottonwood is cool, but I rarely go down there. Most things I need are already in sedona. They have a Walmart down there, but every time I go I smh
How's it going? I was wondering if you plan on doing anymore videos of Cottonwood or the whole Verde Valley or even more about Yavapai county?My family wants to move maybe next summer, tired of Wyoming and the snow, they just had 26 inches a week ago, fell in a 24 hour period, over it. I have been watching all the videos and most of it has to do with your neck of the woods. If you are not planning on it, do you know any other channels I can check out? I am not worried about housing, it is going up everywhere. I want to know more ways of things like jobs, maybe things for kids in or around the area. My wife works at Walmart so that is no big deal. I am a truck driver so not sure how the market is in that area. Thank you in advance, have a good day and keep up the cool videos.
You should check out Kingman, Az. We are right by I 40. An hour to the Colorado River, 1 1/2 to Vegas and 2 1/2 to Flagstaff.
I just moved to Mojave county from Yuma, but now I have a good job opportunity in Cottonwood. Is the cost of living high there??
I would appreciate slowing down the camera movement.
five month very hot 115 temperature up
You gotta stop the camera at the clothes for sale on the street. Gee.😄
Check out Junk House Charlie's! Awesome owner!
Do you have any suggestions of places to see or visit that are wheelchair friendly? I’m going to be staying in Scottsdale for a week beginning this coming Wednesday. My little guy is wheelchair bound. Even if to see the beauty of driving somewhere and light walking. I’m open to things to see and do within a 2 hour drive of Scottsdale. Thanks so much!
Desiree Barrientez I will look into a bit more. Here is a list I found on Google wheelchairjimmy.com/location/scottsdale/
Living in Arizona Now thanks so much Jeff I really appreciate it!!!!!
@@dezz238 Dead Horae Ranch State Park is WC friendly, especially Loop 5. We use it every fall for our Wheeling in Nature event . Im with the AZ Spinal Cord Injury Assoc here in Phoenix. How old is your son?.Daring Adventures does a lot of activities with kiddos. Welcome to AZ!
Karen Halgren thank you so much for the info, my son is 11 but cognitively much younger.
Okay, so maybe Kingman is not the best option !
@L B Trailers don't mean it's a bad place and stats say there are far worse places in AZ, look at the the slopes in Pheonix. My point is coming from the UK just about anywhere in AZ has more appeal.
Have you done a “best places to homestead in AZ yet? TY

Where all the people?
Hi!
Are they requiring mask? in video I see people without .which Is good thinking bout visiting
Inside yes, outside no
Cotton wood has an airport to
Is the noise from the airport really bad?
@@Theresa5207 No, it's a very small airport. We're actually in the flight path and see/hear the small planes as they come in/out. It's one of the things I like best when sitting on our deck.
cottonwood is way to overgrown and not exactly full of decent people lol this video portrays literally one street that is nice for tourists.
I see no people walking around anywhere.
How about sharing some substantial information: taxes- property and sales and state, political leaning, crime...this is so vague, more information please? work, hiking things to do...something
Music is to loud its annoying trying to hear you
Where is the most racially diverse area of Arizona?
L B thank you! I will check out your Phoenix videos :)
Grows a
Grows ALOT when the snow birds show up , oh well
Having a hard time hearing you. Your voice is weak. Does Cottonwood have any good medical or hospital. Where would the nearest good hospital be. Would like to see a video on where the best area in Arizona would be to find upscale designer American Indian jewelry.
@ Tra Ho Thank you so much.
Herky-jerky photo-like vid. No frame of reference with regard to layout... also to fast-focus... very chaotic. Decent music but just jerking here and there was irritating... thumbs down.
