Christmas Tree Inn

Santa Claus, AZ

There’s a couple of things wrong here. Naming a town in Arizona after Santa Claus is the first thing. Then trying to make a resort subdivision with a Christmas theme was the next. Starting in the 60’s, land developers opened a sales office and tried to sell the idea. An Inn was built, with hopes to have a year round Santa, and streets named after reindeer.

By 1988, the idea and the buildings were abandoned.
