The City of Prescott is the place to be for visitors and residents! Its locality places it in the middle of the natural beauty of north central Arizona.
Rock and mountain formations such as Thumb Butte, the Granite Dells and Granite Mountain are nearby, and the towering San Francisco Peaks of Flagstaff are easily seen from Prescott. Nearby lakes such as Watson, Willow, Lynx and Goldwater, coupled with many forested trails, provide ample opportunities for the outdoor enthusiasts.
Prescott also offers the modern features you would expect to find in a growing community, such as variety of shopping and dining establishments, recreation facilities and quality housing, award-winning educational institutions and outstanding medical facilities.
Still its western roots are deep, and one only needs to be here in July at rodeo time to see just how deep they are!
