Opening in about 1958, Boca Raton was the fifth or sixth Motor Lodge to open in the Sunshine State. With 53 guest rooms, the Lodge was built in the Nims style very much like the earlier Ocala Motor Lodge. Located on a big chunk of high priced real estate, the old Motor Lodge succumbed to redevelopment and by 2004 no trace of it could be found.

Even its Restaurant which had survived into the middle 1990s had been leveled by 2004.
