If time permits, Sedona is fun day trip that's about 2 hours away. We highly recommend leaving early in the morning to avoid traffic. If you make it, we recommend Devil's Bridge, Cathedral Rock, Slide Rock Park and a walk downtown. If you really have time drive up the 89A for incredible views all the way to Flagstaff.
The drive to the lake offers incredible desert views and maybe a mountain goat sighting. You can also find a ghost town and Lost Dutchman state park on the way. Beware - the road is quite windy. There isn't too much to do at the lake but you can take in the views and rent a kayak.
