우리 집처럼 편하게
Make yourself at home.
The house
Three rhythms the house is built around, from the first light on the rocks to the stars over the roof.
Unroll a mat on the upstairs deck. The rocks turn red before the sun clears the ridge, and the treetops are at eye level. Barley tea afterward.
The pool, a shaded lounger and a long lunch at the outdoor table. The yard is fully fenced and private. Pool heating is available on request.
Two fire pits, a gas grill, and a sky dark enough to see the Milky Way. Lights low at ten, so the stars come out.
The heart of the house, under vaulted wood ceilings and a wall of warm brick. Sleeps two more.
Shows art when it is off. We hung our own travel photographs on the walls around it.
Dishwasher, coffee maker, everything you need to cook together. A dining table inside and one in the shade outside.
A dedicated desk with a view, for the mornings you still have to log on.
Free to use, with pool towels and bath linens provided.
Two driveways, free, right at the door.
A smart lock on the door. Your code arrives in the Airbnb app before you get here.
$100 per night with two to three days' notice. The pool is unheated otherwise.
Rooms
Two kings and a pair of twin XLs, all in crisp linens. The conversation pit sleeps two more, for up to eight.
고요한 방
The quiet room
King · Room 1
Wake up to red rock through the glass door. A reading chair, an en suite bath with a walk-in shower.
따뜻한 방
The warm room
King · Room 2
Simple and warm under a wood ceiling, with one of our travel photographs above the bed.
밝은 방
The light room
Twin XL · Room 3
Two single beds with reading lamps, for kids, friends or siblings.
Sunk into the living room floor, with cushions all the way around and the fireplace wall in front of you. It is made for long talks and lazy afternoons, and it sleeps two with the bedding we leave out. The indoor fireplace stays off; the fire pits outside are yours.
Both bathrooms are stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, a hair dryer and makeup wipes.
Outside
The whole yard is yours: the pool and its waterfall, the fire pits, the grill and a shaded table for eight. Upstairs, a deck looks over the treetops.
Photographs
Our story
We're a Korean-Mexican couple from San Francisco who fell for Sedona's silence. We named the house 바위집, "rock house," because the red rocks are the reason we're here.
Gonzalo & Daniel
A Korean moon jar (달항아리) is made in two halves, thrown separately and joined at the middle. The seam never quite disappears, and the jar leans a little. That is the point. We built 바위집 around that idea: two traditions, Korean restraint and Mexican warmth, joined into one vessel, with the view doing the talking.
So the house is quiet where it can be. Plaster, wood, brick, linen. The color comes from the rocks outside and a few things we care about inside: a Zapotec rug, a red blanket, the fire.
We came for a weekend of hiking and kept coming back for the quiet. The house is built low and wide, the way houses here used to be, with a sunken living room and a wall of glass facing the rocks. We kept what was good about it and filled it with the things we live with at home: plain linens, wood, a few rugs, a lot of books.
Every photograph on the walls is one we took ourselves, in places we have traveled together. Gonzalo shoots and edits them. If you want to know where one was taken, ask.
We live in San Francisco with our dog Gizmo, so you will have the house to yourself. We check in by message, answer fast, and are happy to help in English, Spanish or Korean. The loft and the garage stay closed; everything else is yours.
Nearby
The house sits in the Chapel area of Sedona, between the Chapel of the Holy Cross and the trailheads along Highway 179. Most of these are a short drive; a few you can walk to.
Most trailheads need a Red Rock Pass or an America the Beautiful pass for parking; both are sold at the trailhead kiosks and in town. Carry more water than you think you need, start early in summer, and give the rock a day to dry after rain. Printed trail notes are in the house.
Details
Sedona does not allow parties or events in short-term rentals, and quiet hours are part of what makes the yard so still at night. The indoor fireplace is not for guest use; the outdoor fire pits are.
Two exterior Ring cameras: one at the main entrance by the garage and one facing the trash pickup area. There are no cameras inside or facing private guest areas. Indoor and outdoor noise-level monitors and an indoor smoking sensor are installed; they never record conversations.
The whole house and yard are yours, except the loft and garage, which stay private. Your door code arrives in the Airbnb app before you arrive.
Booking is through Airbnb, which handles dates, payment and messages. We answer quickly.
