The Wigwam Motels, also known as the "Wigwam Villages", are distinctive landmarks. Two of the three surviving motels are located on historic U.S. Route 66, in Holbrook, Arizona and on the border between Rialto, California and San Bernardino, California.
Wigwam Motel #2, in Cave City, Kentucky was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 16, 1988 under the official designation of Wigwam Village #2. Wigwam Village #6 was listed on May 2, 2002.
The motels were parodied in the Pixar film Cars with a traffic-cone motel and in Rockstar game GTA San Andreas.
