The Bird's Nest on Route 66 Great location right off the I-40

Holbrook is a quiet town in the heart of Route 66. My family has lived here our whole lives and love our town. We have a two story home with with a birds eye view of Holbrook and The historic Wigwam Hotel that was the inspiration for the Cozy Cone Motel in Disney’s Cars movie. The downstairs is for our guests and is comfortable, cozy and clean. We are 20 minutes to a four hour drive to The Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, Grand Canyon, Four Corners National Monument, Sedona and much more.

The downstairs getaway has three bedrooms, a full bathroom, living and dining area as well as a pool table. There is also a private patio where our guests can enjoy our Arizona weather with an amazing view of Holbrook. There is a walkway leading from the street where you will be able to park your vehicle and have private access to the back door. Our home is the perfect safe haven from solo travelers who like their space to groups of friends and families who may be traveling together. We have a mini refrigerator, microwave, toaster and coffee maker in your private dining area. We also provide paper/plastic plates, silverware, cups and napkins.

Each room has a T.V. with a DVD player and the private living room has cable and an apple T.V. . We have a selection of DVD's and board games for guests to use. There are individual coolers in each room to help make your stay more comfortable in the summer. You can enjoy a nice walk or bike ride around the friendly neighborhood.

Lovely Stay
We had a wonderful time at the Bird’s Nest. The hostess Cindy was so kind and hospitable. The VRBO was very comfortable and had extra amenities we did not even expect. She even checked in to see if we needed anything else while we were there. She went above and beyond. The location was great. It was only 20 minutes from the petrified forest national park.

Petrified Forest Stay
Older-style home filled with charm, lots of toys for the granddaughter to play with. Owners provided lots of thoughtful touches to make our visit a nice one. Only one bathroom was difficult for five of us.

Bird nest
Exactly as advertised. Only problem was NOT the property owners. Our rental car mapping was accurate on our 2,100 mile trek EXCEPT for this address. We entered it as advertised, which was correct, complete with the “west” designator. It brought us to the wrong house-by a bunch! We eventually found it. So beware your GPS!

This is my second stay here in the Bird Nest. It is very quaint, comfortable, immaculate and Cynthia goes out of her way to think of everything you would need. I would and will stay there again. I just love the Petrified Forest.

Very comfortable and highly recommended
The photos really do not do Cynthia’s house justice. It was much larger than expected and had a very homely feel to it. We were ahead of schedule and Cynthia very kindly allowed us to check in early. We met her soon afterwards and it is clear she cares about her guest’s comfort. She had left us plenty of breakfast food and other essentials. We were very comfortable throughout our stay and would highly recommend Cynthia’s house for a stop over in Holbrook.

Bird Nest Fabulous Stay
More than just as advertised. The Bird Nest was spotless and so cosy and comfortable. Didn’t miss a full kitchen at all. Fridge, toaster snd microwave were all we needed. There is a grill that we didn’t use but could of. Cindy and her husband were so kind. Close to the Petrified Forest where we had a great time.

We stayed in Holbrook to see Petrified Forest National Park. Our host made sure that we had all we needed, and indeed we were well taken care of! Even while lacking a full kitchen, we were able to eat well with lots of extras supplied by the host.

Charming, roomy accommodation in great neighborhood
Very comfortable and spacious. Great outdoor space in a very nice neighborhood. Quiet and peaceful (you would hardly know anyone was upstairs) and the train/interstate traffic that is Holbrook is not noticeable at all. Wonderful decor -- enjoyed looking at all the arts and crafts in the commodious house.
