Finally had the opportunity to sleep in a Wigwam here in Holbrook, Arizona. This is only one of three Wigwam properties that still exist. Built-in 1950 on old Route 66, it is an icon that has always attracted our attention when we’ve driven by it. Heading up to Colorado, we decided to shave some miles off our trip by driving the 186 miles (300 km) here to the Wigwam Motel, as this was as good an excuse as any to book a night. Bragging rights alone make this bit of Americana worth every penny.
