The Wigwam was originally built at the height of the Roaring Twenties as a gathering place for Ohio-based executives of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company discovered that the West Valley of Phoenix was a prime location to grow cotton for the production of rubber tires. Accordingly, a residential complex was constructed for workers and their families during the growing season, as was a vacation retreat for company executives to stay in when visiting the cotton-growing operation. As the retreat grew in popularity, lodgings and amenities were added to the resort. On Thanksgiving Day in 1929, The Wigwam opened as a full-service resort with accommodations for just 24 guests. Today, this AAA four-diamond desert oasis spans 440 acres and boasts 331 guestrooms, a luxurious spa, a fitness center, three restaurants and bars, three swimming pools, prominent conference facilities, and three championship golf courses, including two historic courses designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. Over the years, The Wigwam has remained one of the most iconic hotels in Litchfield Park Arizona, offering a timeless blend of history and luxury.
