Other information: The Adirondack Motel was owned by Joan Brush. It was sold to Dick May in 1984, and later to Fred Mueller.
The address was previously the home of Christian Sporck; he was granted a variance to build a cabin within 50 feet of the Lake Flower shore line in 1953, and two more cabins in 1954. In 1960, he applied for a building permit to combine his cabins into a motel. He sold the motel in 1968.
Along with two neighboring motel properties, Lake Flower Inn and the Lakeside Motel this is the proposed site of a controversial ninety room, sixty foot tall hotel that was proposed in 2013.
