Experience the Living History of Route 66

We are proud to have been part of the mother road for decades. The gravel road was placed next to the Grand Canyon Caverns' natural entrance in 1928. In fact the original gravel road was placed right next to our natural entrance in 1928 so our original owners, Walter and Miles Peck, could entice the first travelers to try the ‘dope on a rope’ special tour.

It takes only an extra 17 minutes to use RT 66 and enjoy our very special route, truck free (they have to stay on I-40. There is no having to double back to visit, as we are a loop between Seligman on the east and Kingman on the west.

We are a beautiful road in northern Arizona that the state of Arizona lovingly maintains (it's better than any road in California). You will be able to look in the Grand Canyon at mile 106, west of us at our friends and neighbors in the Hualapi nation. Heading towards Seligman east of Grand Canyon Caverns you’ll have vistas of 50 miles or more with never a bit of smog…a big advantage of the middle of nowhere.
