General Information:

Update 9/16/2024: I have determined this motel was also known as Jones Indian River Motel and was operated by Sidney Jones going back to the 1960's. There was an article with a photo which showed the street address in the background. It was also operated by Herbert and Helen Webb.

Update 12-19-2022 from Jon C: Unfortunately, recent satellite imagery indicates that this motel has been mostly demolished.

I am not sure of the current status of this motel (as of Nov 2022). It's got a great location near the river but I don't see a listing for it on Google Maps or elsewhere. Maybe it is being used for housing or is closed?

Sadly, this motel is no more. Mr and Mrs Webb sold in the 80's(?) after they had bought the cabins across the road. The cabins across the road are now know as "Reeds on the River" and extensive refurbishing has taken place. I think at one time they were known as "Gillispe's Cabins". Only the main office and north wing of the motel is still standing, along with 2 or 3 cabins on the river. The basketball court is overgrown and the fountain has not operated in several years.
