Summary edit

Description
English: (1 in a multiple picture set)

There were originally 7 Wigwam motels stretching from Kentucky, where the first was built, to California. People stood in line to sleep in a teepee. (Later a more risque motto was used, 'Do it in a teepee.')
Two of the motels stood along Rt. 66. Wigwam No. 7, in Rialto, CA; and Wigwam No. 6 (shown here) in Holbrook, CA still stand, and both are on the National Register of Historic Places.
In 2005 the WIgwam Motel in Holbrook was looking a bit worn along the edges, but they had a nice assortment of old cars parked on the grounds.

The Wigwam in Rialto, CA has been completely restored and tourists are beginning to find it again, so they can sleep in a teepee.
