Totally enjoyed this stop. We needed to use the bathroom which were also very clean and not crowded for a Saturday. Well just the site is a good place to stop to walk a bit or walk your pets. Dont get me started on the view which was great to see. Also, the native American crafts market was amazing. I wanted to shop.shop...and shop more. But see for your selfs.

So peaceful place and beautiful. So many trees to look at shades of many colors. After that, you must take some photos to always will keep you there.But after you look at the amazing canyon, it is so cool to see the Native American with all the finest art that you can have! It is from the person who design the perfect art

This is a great look out. Lots of information. There are several vendors selling native jewelry and miscellaneous. The prices are much cheaper than Sadona shops. Restrooms were clean.

If youve never driven 89A from Sedona to Flag, treat yourself to a fantastic experience. Stop and head down to Oak Creek along the way, and definitely stop off at the Vista and take a look around!

Really nice overlook, but the real gem are the Navajo venders. Such friendly people and their items are beautiful and authentic. Really great way to support indigenous communities!

Love the hikes all season. The creek pull outs are great but my favorite is West Fork Trail. Great place for family and for people who want to be more adventurous. If you come on holidays it can get ridiculously crowded so come early.

This is an amazing rest stop. You get to view the Oak Creek Canyon, a great view of US 89A as it winds its way through the area. The bonus is there are Native Artisans selling a variety of hand made items.

I dont stop here for the Vista, but for the indian market. They have tables about 6-10, set up every day from 8:00-4:00. Buy direct from the makers of this very special jewelry.

You can really feel good about shopping here and supporting the Native Americans. The vendors change almost daily. If you are looking for something particular, ask, they may have it in backstock. Some do custom orders also.

It costs for parking but there are good picnic areas, a beautiful view of the red rocks, and a path down to the creek. The picnic area under the covered roof needs reservations so its good for reunions, parties, etc. If there are too many vehicles youll need to wait in line to park as well.

This lookout was stunning and shouldnt be missed. I know it may seem like just another view of a canyon but it is fantastic. Get out, walk around and visit the Park shop and the native American market that is there.Really nice people working there and the location is just perfect. Sure there are other ways to hike in to the area, but there are no hiking trials from this spot.

Since you enter this road ... you are completely clear, a good stretch to drive but on the way you find craft shops, markets, coffee, the river, I love that without a problem you can park your car and get off to enjoy the incredible view of this beautiful place, when you get to the top just enjoy these images is something that is priceless if you love and admire nature, there are native American vendors and I had the pleasure of talking with some of them have so much to tell from how they make jewelry up to the meaning of their carvings, I felt so connected to this place I can only describe it as a magical experience, on the way back there is a bit of traffic but you are still in your car enjoying the view.
