The Cornville area was settled in ancient times by the Sinagua people, was later occupied by Yavapai and Apache communities, and was passed through by Spanish explorer Antonio de Espejo in May 1583.

The first Anglo settlers, retired Confederate officer Captain Andrew Jackson and his wife Margaret, arrived on lower Oak Creek in the spring of 1876, and settlers quickly built an irrigation ditch to farm the west side of the creek.

According to local tradition, the community was meant to be named Cohnville for a local family, but the paperwork that came back from Washington read Cornville, and the settlers kept the name.

The Cornville post office was established on May 11, 1887, with Samuel Dickinson as its first postmaster.

Cornville remained almost entirely agricultural until the late 1960s, after which retirees and commuters arrived in growing numbers; it now serves as a bedroom community for Sedona and Cottonwood.

At Page Springs, the Arizona Game and Fish Department operates a large fish hatchery, and Lower Oak Creek has been designated an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society.
