Unfortunately EVERYBODY seems to be retiring in Prescott, it’s really gotten out of hand. Cottonwood is okay, but it doesn’t have the really cool downtown historic square of Prescott. I like the feel of Prescott better than the feel of Cottonwood. I’m a lifelong Arizona (Phoenix area) resident.
The food was delicious, the service was exceptional, and the waitress was wearing a long sleeve shirt with 'Ruger' printed along the left arm.
So I'm thinking this is a great place to settle down.
But then we drove through downtown, and although it is really pretty, it was a zoo of people and car traffic. Not as bad as the rotary-ridden roads of Sedona, but surprisingly hectic.
