Red Rock is a place in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States. Red Rock is 4.5 miles (7.2 km) southwest of Sedona.

Red Rock Crossing is a former ford across Oak Creek with views of Cathedral Rock. The crossing was washed out in a flood in 1978,[2] and there are no current plans to reopen it to automobile traffic. Most of the crossing is included in the Coconino National Forest's Crescent Moon Ranch recreation area.

Baldwins Crossing is an alternate name for the ford.[3]
