This motel goes back to 50's more than likely. It was operated by Dale Hunt back then. As for the exact location, the postcard indicated it had views of the Mackinac Bridge and Mackinac Island. That would put it roughly where the Rivera sits as of 2023 but I am not seeing anything like this place now or even on the historical aerial photos. The postcard photo shows it being right on the water so it may have been near the ferry docks also. It was still going in 1972 as I found an ad in the high school yearbook from that year. I found one mention of the motel in the newspaper archives.
