The former Brant's Motel built about 1952. Like a lot of motels the number of guest rooms changed over the years, in this case 14 - as many as 18. There's swimming pool behind the managers residence / office building.

xThe motel was sold in the mid-1960s and was listed for sale in 2011 and 2017. Given the years I'd guess it was sold a number of other times. Based on photo's I've seen, it was apparently still using the Brant's name in the early 2010's.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
