The restaurant became a local landmark and an important part of the community -- it was a place where social and service clubs and other community organizations gathered and held meetings or just a great place for people to eat, get together, talk, and enjoy life. Both the Restaurant and Motor Lodge were built and owned by Irving Spaulding and remained in the Spaulding family until 1990 when Bruce R. Spaulding sold the complex to Fred and Nancy Litcoff.
