Space Age Lodge

Gila Bend, Arizona

Gila Bend's finest lodging & dining establishment caters to a particularly spaced-out kind of customer -- note the flying saucer on the roof! The restaurant burned down in 1998 but was quickly rebuilt (the supposed cause of the fire was a shorted-out neon sign, but there are those among us who suspect sabotage by invading space aliens!). The photos below show the space murals decorating the restaurant walls, and the underside of the "saucer" over the motel lobby.

Directions: 401 E. Pima Street.
