October is here and so is fall!
October- one of the best times of the year. We love fall for the cooler mornings, changing leaves, and all of the opportunities to get outside and have fun in Cottonwood. Explore the options and the events to plan your visit around. You are welcome here!
​Old Town is Where It's At!

Old Town is the place to be for food, shopping, wine, a place to stay, and great events. Make plans for breakfast, lunch, happy hour, wine hour, and dinner. You won't be disappointed! Explore the opportunities here.
Dead Horse Ranch State Park

Dead Horse Ranch State Park is a perfect place to begin your Cottonwood adventure. The leaves will soon be changing and it truly will be golden hour all day long for at least a week, we hope.

Lace up your hikers and explore the trails, take a family photo among the golden leaves, and enjoy a horseback ride with Trail Horse Adventures, or try your fishing skills. Visit the Park website for more information.
Verde Valley Wine Trail

Have you picked up a passport for the Verde Valley Wine Trail? You really need to. Stop at the Visitor Center in Old Town, 817 N. Main Street, and grab the passport. Then, visit the numerous stops in Cottonwood, get it stamped, and turn it in for great prizes.

It's worth the visit and we think you'll find some new favorites to sip on. Find out more here.
