We loved our stay at HCML!
The pool and public areas are very nice and the staff was super friendly. The location is great for day trips to the Grand Canyon, Sedona, and lots more.

Every time I come through Arizona I stay here at the High Country Motor Lodge. The food is fantastic, a very friendly staff, the property has all the amenities you would need, and the overall atmosphere is elevated family-friendly. Whether you’re visiting the Grand Canyon or just passing through, I would strongly recommend spending the night here… or 2

They've done a really nice job fixing up this old Days Inn with great amenities and it was very clean, however you can still tell it used to be an old Days Inn that has been refurbished

I love the HCML! The facilities are set up for relaxing with a book or gathering with friends. There’s a very cool lounge-y bar, outdoor seating with fire tables, a nice pool, and a grassy games area. It’s hard to imagine a simple hotel presenting as a resort style stay, but HCML has pulled it off.
