Clarkdale is a historic smelter town turned tourism destination, best known as the departure point for the Verde Canyon Railroad scenic train ride. The town maintains a compact, walkable character with growing arts and wine-tasting scenes.
Clarkdale's Verde Canyon Railroad alone draws hundreds of thousands of visitors annually. Small businesses that capitalize on this foot traffic and nearby Cottonwood's wine country momentum are well-positioned.
