You should have your views in the Views folder if you to follow MVC conventions. You can also create an Area, but you should follow the conventions for creating Areas (registering, etc) or take advantage of the tooling to create new areas.

If you don't want to follow convention, you must explicitly tell MVC where to find the view.
