Rare Oak Creek Canyon food-and-beverage, retail and experiential-tourism opportunity along scenic State Route 89A, approximately nine miles north of Sedona.
Oak Creek Canyon Basecamp is envisioned as a stand-alone destination combining an operating café and boutique market, significant restaurant potential, a commercial kitchen trailer, outdoor gear and visitor provisions, guided-tour operations, creek access and a substantial creekside land component with associated Oak Creek water rights.
The existing café offers artisan coffee and espresso beverages, baked goods, prepared foods, snacks and refreshments in a welcoming canyon environment. The adjoining market features locally inspired merchandise, outdoor gear, trail essentials, maps, hydration supplies and visitor provisions, creating a natural gathering point for travelers, hikers and outdoor enthusiasts exploring Oak Creek Canyon.
The property also offers a compelling opportunity for the development of a destination restaurant. Preliminary measurements identify an approximately 2,044-square-foot market building and an approximately 1,408-square-foot partially constructed restaurant building. The existing market building includes attractive finished lobby, lounge, conference and meeting areas that were previously used for hotel reception and consultations with wedding and event clients.
Following separation from the neighboring lodging property, these areas may no longer be required for hotel reception or event-management functions. Portions of the finished interior could potentially be reconfigured for restaurant seating, private dining, a lounge, waiting area, bar or small-event use. Together with the partially constructed restaurant building and commercial kitchen trailer, the improvements provide a substantial foundation for an expanded food-and-beverage operation or destination dining concept, subject to zoning, permitting and governmental approvals.
Exact building areas, current uses and improvements included in the sale are subject to verification and the final approved parcel configuration.
The owner has recently introduced Oak Creek Tours, adding an experiential component to the Basecamp concept. Guests may begin their visit at the property, purchase food, beverages, merchandise or outdoor gear and depart for a guided canyon or creek excursion. The tour operation provides an additional potential revenue stream and may be included in the transaction, subject to the final agreement regarding branding, equipment, reservations, intellectual property and other business assets.
The property benefits from direct visibility and access along State Route 89A, the scenic corridor connecting Sedona and Flagstaff. Its forested canyon setting, existing commercial improvements, creek access and combination of food, retail and recreational uses create a distinctive platform for an owner-user, restaurateur, specialty retailer, outdoor recreation company or hospitality entrepreneur.
The anticipated creekside component provides access to Oak Creek, opportunities for outdoor recreation and water rights associated with the creekside parcel. The current Hoel Reserve offering materials identify Oak Creek water rights as a feature of the existing creekside property. The nature, extent, documentation, permitted use and transferability of those rights should be confirmed through title documentation, applicable governmental records and the purchaser’s independent due diligence.

A purchaser may continue and expand the existing café, market and tour concept, complete the restaurant building, convert portions of the former lobby and meeting areas into additional dining or hospitality space, or reposition the property for another tourism-oriented use, subject to applicable approvals.
