Adamsville

Quartzsite, Arizona

Adamsville may look like a typical Old West town, but take a closer look -- the buildings lining the main street are only doll-house size! A plaque on the site explains the tiny town's origins:

ADAMSVILLE

Adamsville was moved from Castle Rock Shores RV Park, near Parker, along the Colorado River. Babe Adams started building the village in 1974. Babe and Babs, his wife, live near Parker for 18 years. They donated the village to the Quartzsite Historical Society. It was restored by many volunteers and given to Celia's Garden. It was set in place in 2001.

Directions: Adamsville is part of Celia's Rainbow Garden, which is located in Quartzsite Town Park, on the west side of Plymouth Road one mile north of Business Loop 10.

Last visited: March 2009.
