The photo shown below - circa 1941-1943, was taken when the Colonial was virtually BRAND NEW. Originally constructed in 1940, it was first called the "Colonial Deluxe Auto Court" and consisted of the Office/Managers Apartment (far left side) and 10 rental units. From what we've been able to gather, for it's first ten years the units were rented out as "efficiency apartments" (for lack of a better term...)
with single car garages as can be seen in the photograph below.

Sometime around 1950 (as near as we can determine) it changed over to "Colonial Motel" and the number of units increased to 20. Sometime between then and now, a Front Office/Lobby was added, and four more units converted, bringing us to our present day total of 24 rooms. We offer one, two & three bed accommodations, with four of those being 2 bed "kitchenette" units.
