"The historic Frye Home built in the 1940s on their ranch is now one of the gems of the park. . . .
"There have been many hopes and dreams for the House of Apache Fires but none have ever been fully realized. It was to be Jack and Helen Frye’s dream home. When the Fryes acquired the 700 acres (about 1 square mile) along Oak Creek outside Sedona from four homesteaders in 1941, they already owned 50,000 acres in the Southwest where they raised steer. However, it was at their Oak Creek property, where they began to conceptualize The House of Apache Fires, a pueblo-styled home on a bluff with an architect from New Mexico, John Meem, who was influential in championing the adobe style of architecture in Santa Fe.
"When she consulted with a Native American healer about her experiences he convinced her that she lived on sacred healing grounds. . . . At around this time, a tutuveni rock (Hopi writing rock) was discovered on the property, bearing clan symbols of Hopi ancestors prior to 1040 AD on the property. A Hopi elder explained that it meant that this was a place where all future tribes would gather to create peace and harmony.
"Much of the information presented on this page are from stories that the narrator has transcribed. True oral history is a method of conducting historical research through recorded interviews between a narrator with personal experience of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer to add to the historical record. Because it is a primary source, oral history is not intended to present a final, verified, or “objective” narrative of events or a comprehensive history of a place, such as the House of Apache Fires. Instead, it is a spoken account and reflects the personal opinion offered by the narrator, and as such, it is subjective.
