The park is located in Oak Creek Canyon 7 miles (11 km) north of Sedona . Slide Rock State Park is located on Coconino National Forest land and is co-managed by the Arizona State Parks agency and the U.S. Forest Service . Tall red rock formations that are typical of the region also surround the park, which contains a 43 - acre (17 ha) working apple farm . </P> <P> The land was first developed by Frank L. Pendley, who arrived in the canyon in 1907 and acquired title to the land under the Homestead Act in 1910 . Pendley developed an irrigation system (which is still in use today) and planted an apple orchard in 1912 . The state completed a road through the canyon in 1914, and Pendley built rustic tourist cabins in 1933 that in part survive today . Several films were shot in the area: Angel and the Badman (1946), Broken Arrow (1950), Drum Beat (1954), and Gun Fury (1953). </P>
