Carty’s Camp
Carty’s Camp was built in 1923 in Needles, California. It had a gas station and over 20 rooms. It was pretty popular until its competition, the 66 Motel, opened next door. With the reroute of the old Route 66, most businesses along the main road suffered a huge blow, and Carty’s wasn’t spared.
Now it has been abandoned and sits unused, with only the whispers of its glory days left for people to remember. The structure remains the same, with the palm tree in the center still standing tall, but that’s where it ends. Now, you’ll likely only find drifters within the walls of Carty’s Camp.
