Painted Desert Inn

Reviewed By Craig-World-Travelle - Agoura Hills, United States

Wish we could stay here at this beautiful restored motel. It is just open for viewing these days but it is worth a few minutes to walk around. They have a menu of the food prices from the days long ago. Beautiful architecture. Nice murals and photos from the past.

Newspaper Rock

Viewable without the scopes - I'm not sure why others have remarked that these are not visible. Clearly visible with the naked eye. The scopes do offer a more detailed view as well as the zoom lens of my camera.

The setting and views here are amazing. The giant log spanning a desert wash is interesting. A short walk takes you down for a close look.
