Elegantly perched in the Coconino National Forest, this resort overlooks stunning red mountains for as far as the eye can see. This family-run property first opened its doors to the public in 1977. Since then, couples alike have celebrated their incredible occasions in one of the site’s open-air event spaces. Away from the distractions of modern life, this venue brings you closer to nature as you dance and dine up in the mountains.

Also adhering to 150 guests, this site allows celebrations to continue long into the night, as the mesmerizing stars gleam down onto red mountain-tops.

Although we didn’t select SRL for our wedding venue it was a worthy contender and worth writing a review about! Our main reason for not booking with them is we exceeded their capacity but man the views are absolutely incredible! If you are looking for that red rock backdrop and more rustic setting this is the venue for you. Only “negative” is at this time (2019) they do not have a liquor license and therefore can only serve beer and wine - for some that is a nonissue but I feel worth mentioning. Rooms are being renovated and hands down cannot beat those views!

Thank you so much for your kind words about our property. We are working on the liquor license and actually have plans for a bigger wedding venue in the future. Its just so hard to have large weddings because we do have a capacity limit. That was very nice to leave us a great review even when you chose somewhere else to get married. Hope you had a great wedding wherever you ended up. We appreciate it and would love for you to stay with us next time your in Sedona.

Breathtaking views, wonderful wedding!
Sky Ranch Lodge was a magical and stunning location to match our beautiful wedding day! We booked the location after having our breaths taken away from the view when visiting the lodge. I would argue that they have the best view in Sedona. We booked a March special which came with local vendors. This was perfect because it is a small town and it helps that everyone knows each other and has worked together, it made communication very stress free. When we had any questions arise, Bernadette and Angela would find us answers. The location is great and all of your guests can stay on the property, plus your furry friends which we loved! We rented the tent from Verve rentals per their recommendation which was perfect because it was cooler and the tent provided a warm eating and dancing area while still allowing the views of the stars. They also provide a shuttle which was great for transportation to the rehearsal dinner. I've read the previous reviews and I would definitely recommend having a wedding coordinator or at least a day of coordinator, because although they provide a lot of support a wedding is a big event and the more help, the less stress there is for the bride. All I can say is, on the big day the staff of Sky Ranch Lodge made mine and my husband's dreams come true and they had everything prepared for us.
