Just happen to visit on that weekend. The place was fill with people and was buzzing with excitement. We had a wonderful time and explore the Main Street, Car show and Music.
When you get to Old Town you make a right turn past an antique dealer which when walking through you repeatedly say remember we had or why did we throw out.... Right before it is gas station turned malt shop with burgers etc. The town is a blend of government buildings and really good places to eat. Wine tastings, various second had shops. Having eaten in three of the restaurants on separate visits the food has been great in all. A good place to stop and eat and wander.
Lovely little place with an eclectic mix of shops restaurants and wine bars, enough to occupy a weekend getaway
You can hit everywhere in a day. What's left for tomorrow? What they have is nice, but the typical things you find in a small town. But that's the town. Most of the restaurants are really good. That's what you go back for.
You can walk the street in an afternoon, plenty of quaint antique shops and cute shops, a fantastic Bakery (the sour dough bread is to die for), coffee shop with local artist pictures displayed. The Tavern Grill has the best salad eva!! with very upscale appearance surprisingly for such a little town.
We took advantage of the Tavern Hotel's Sip n Stay package for a birthday getaway. Old Cottonwood has several wine tasting rooms and 1 distillery tasting room. Cute shops and some nice restaurants (we ate at Nic's and Tavern Grille). Not much to do at night since the Shops close early (4-5) and restaurants close up around 9. We're not night owls so this was a great getaway for us.
A virtual plethora of shops and resteraunts, including the largest antique store I have ever seen. Several places for wine tasting, beer tasting, olive oil tasting and even distilled spirits. Great place to visit
After living in Arizona ten years and passing though Cottonwood dozens of times on the "main" drag back forth to Clarkdale and Jerome we finally "found" Historic Old Town Cottonwood! Wow! Be sure to check out The Iron Horse Inn, Chisty Fisher's new HQ-Studio-store, Nic's Italian Restaurant, The Tavern Grille and The Red Rooster...all great places.
