Sedona may be a small Arizona town but it holds a large place in all of our hearts. The fall brings a brisk changing of the leaves, winter holds it own kind of beauty with possibility of a few snow flakes, spring is the best time of the year for hiking and taking long walks on the many trails, and summer is warm but a great break from the heat of Phoenix. No matter when you visit, Sedona will leave an impression. Its beauty is sure to take your breath away.
