Istel is the founder of Felicity and the town’s longtime mayor, having been elected, almost 30 years ago, to an apparent lifetime term. The vote was unanimous: Istel voted for himself and so did Felicity’s other resident, Istel’s wife, Felicia. The town, established in 1986, consists of the Istels’ home and a half-dozen other buildings that the couple built on 2,600 acres in the middle of the desert near Yuma, Ariz., just off Interstate 8. At the north end, up an imposing staircase, sits the Church on the Hill at Felicity — inspired by a little white chapel in Brittany — that Istel built in 2007. The church is gorgeous and serene and looks eerily out of place, though less out of place than the 21-foot-tall stone-and-glass pyramid on the opposite end of town. The pyramid is there to mark the exact center of the world.

Wingate by Wyndham Yuma

10/10 Excellent

"Wingate is always our favorite stay while in Yuma. Their nightly rates are very reasonable which includes a very comfortable bed, pillows, and fresh linens. The evening happy hour is a plus (2 free beers or wine and chips). As for dining choices, there are numerous restaurants within 10mins walking distance or very short drive down the street. Highly recommend to anyone wanting more bang for your buck."
