Hi, I’m Taryn!

Hi, I’m Taryn!

I travel extensively, I kinda like to hike and think of myself as "outdoorsy," and I'm a wannabe photographer. I'm glad you're here and hope you'll stay awhile!

This brand new Airbnb is at the base of the mountains in historic adorable Clarkdale, less than 20 minutes from the best hikes in Sedona (and way away from the chaotic traffic in Uptown!).

Spa shower, snacks, mountain views from bed, the Verde River just down a private hiking trail, and phenomenal restaurants and wineries literally 3 minutes away...what more could you ask for?

Would you stay here?

I found this absolutely beautiful mini slot canyon and wonderland of rocks by accident. 

Amazingly, it's literal steps from one of the most popular formations in Joshua Tree NP and not another soul was there at sunset...in March, on a weekend. 

I'm not great at approximating distance, but it was within earshot of the main trail and a 2-3 minute walk. Just so happens to be somewhat concealed. 

The takeway: if you're out there exploring, well...explore! 

Do it safely and responsibly, though! 

➡️ Be extremely cautious of going off-trail. It's allowed and even encouraged in JTNP, but not most parks. Be aware of fragile vegetation, wildlife habitats, etc.
➡️ Approach places you can't see very well with extreme caution. Make noise to alert any people or animals up ahead that you're approaching.
➡️ Be mindful that others may know of the spot and may be waiting their turn, especially at golden hour. Enjoy it, but give others a chance to do the same.
➡️ Make note of your path as you leave the trail, especially if you're alone! Move something on the trail to mark your path (but make sure to replace it!) or drop a pin.
