The tiny town of Duncan, Arizona has quite an incredible claim to fame. It’s the childhood home of Sandra Day O’Connor, the first woman to serve as an Associate Supreme Court Justice! Duncan is also where you’ll find one of the best small-town hotels in Arizona, the Simpson Hotel. Located in the heart of town on Main Street, this historic inn is the perfect place to set up camp while you explore all the charming ins and outs of Duncan.

Duncan is one of the sleepiest small towns in Arizona you’ll ever visit. Under 700 people live here, but what the town lacks in population, it more than makes up for in charm.

If you’re looking for a place to stay so you can get acquainted with the town, look no further than the Simpson Hotel.
