Where Is This?



Does anyone know where this is or was? The teepees appear to be small motel rooms. The photo is from the 1960's.

Thanks to So Buttons for identifying the photo as the Wigwam Village Motel #6 located in Holbrook, Arizona. If you wish to learn about the history of the Wigwam Village Motels, click here. The history of this particular Wigwam Village can be found here.

I was too quick on the draw.
These wigwam villages were a small chain, and based on all that noise in the background there, I don’t think it’s the Kentucky location. Might be the one in Arizona.

… or one of the fallen?

Hey, listen. No problem. I was unemployed last year. In addition to copious internet clicking, I also saw pretty much every episode of Oprah. She featured the wigwam motel on one of her road trip shows. So thanks are due to O, as per usual.
