Tuzigoot National Monument is ruins of an ancient indian residential spot. It is a short drive from Sedona AZ and well worth the visit. My wife and I brought our son and his wife to see the ruins because the ruins were so interesting.

Tuzigoot is not a cliff dwelling like nearby Montezuma's Castle, it is situated on a hill with views of the Verde River valley south toward Cottonwood in one direction, and Clarkdale and Jerome in the opposite. The excellent visitors center has just been renovated and has many interesting artifacts and interactive exhibits that you should take time to view either...

If you are in the Sedona area, this National Park is an interesting place to visit. It won't take much time since it is all contained at the one site.

Unlike the usual cliff dwellings, this is built on the top of a hill. You can view all of the rooms and walk through them. Also a good little museum on site showing how they recovered the items and the dwelling.

Really good visitor center with lots of artifacts. The path is very easy to see the ruins here. Rangers were very friendly to answer questions even when it was busy.
This monument shows how the early Native Americans lived in this area. Portions of the adobe hut are laid out on a trail with informative placards throughout this self tour. The area is well kept and very clean. The park rangers in the visitors center are most helpful, as well. Imagining what life was like back then is made easier...

Right near Cottonwood which was great for lunch Tuzigoot is a well maintained and interesting Native American structure
We viewed this after several days in the area, so may be a it jaded with all of the awe.
