Brunswick
(In-Town)
-- 3302
Glynn Ave (U.S. 17) |
Opened
in the spring of 1969, the Brunswick Motor Lodge and Restaurant
Complex was just a few miles north of an already existing free
standing Restaurant along U.S. 17. Since I-95 was not completed
for several years Brunswick In-Town managed to hang
on until 1979!
Following
its Orange Roofed days the property was converted into a Holiday
Inn, a Quality Inn, the Brunswick Hotel, and in its final guise
operated as the Golden Isles Inn.

When the property was converted into a Holiday Inn, the A-Frame
Gate Lodge was demolished but the "T"-type Restaurant
and Rum Keg Lounge were boxed in and repurposed. |

Brunswick
(I-95)
|
--
25 Tourist Drive |
|
Opened
in the Spring of 1973, The Brunswick Motor Lodge and Restaurant
Complex was a "Mansard Manor" which offered 96 guest
rooms.
Its
Restaurant became a Big Boy after HoJo's 1986 demise and was
subsequently demolished or converted into a Shoney's. The
Motor Lodge became a Red
Roof Inn
sometime after the middle 1990s. |

It is believed that both Savannah-Gateway
and Brunswick I-95 were owned by the same franchisee, or were
closely linked company owned outlets. |
