A Weekend Visit To The Grand Canyon And Sedona
Part Seven: L'Auberge at Sedona
No visit to Sedona is complete until you've experienced the fragrant aromas and delectable flavors of the award-winning L'Auberge Restaurant on Oak Creek.
Offering the finest French-inspired American cuisine, the restaurant provides guests a sophisticated creek side dining experience either outdoors on the open air terrace, weather permitting, or indoors in the glass fronted dining room.
The restaurant's menu features items that change daily and themes that change seasonally. The celebrated six course dinner tasting menu is not to be missed.
Recipient of Wine Spectator's "Best of Award of Excellence" for 14 consecutive years, Sedona's L'Auberge Restaurant on Oak Creek boasts one of the largest and most refined selections of vintage wines.
The driveway is a little hard to find!
It has a dramatic entry!
Ducks everywhere
We had a creek-side cottage
Time for a walk through our dining room!
Look carefully, the ducks are year-around and everywhere!
Watching the world go by!
This is NOT a duck!
The dining area stops and the path keeps going, so does Sue!
It's plastic
Chairs provide time to relax and just see nature at it's best!
24 cabins dot the water's edge
The shore line in across the middle of this mirrored setting
This picture was taken into the water to show the reflections
Amazing
This would be a tough way to live, huh? Right on the creek1
The red mountains provided for interesting reflections in the creek!
Mother nature was always close by. The nests were everywhere!
We listened to the creek sounds all night long!
Little Miss Daniel Boone! In sandals???
He kept scaring the ducks
She kept walking... The energizer bunny in action!
One could just stop anywhere and have a great view
Sue's version of "Titanic"
Time to go home
Flowers were abundant
Swing time!
We headed for the lodge
It was fun to sit and watch people come and go
Sue found the stairs going up!
Long walk but wonderful views
Paul finally caught up with her
The first plateau was 100 feet p the side of the hill
How we got our exercise

Juniper berries
A juniper berry is the female seed cone produced by the various species of junipers. It is not a true berry but a cone with unusually fleshy and merged scales, which give it a berry-like appearance. The cones from a handful of species, especially Juniperus communis, are used as a spice, particularly in European cuisine, and also give gin its distinguishing flavor.
Wow!
At The Lodge
Looking up!
No, they are candles not a fire!
