 Wytheville, Virginia -- 140 Lithia Rd
 
Built on difficult terrain, the Wytheville Motor Lodge had a commanding view of the valley. It was an early standardized Motor Lodge opening in 1961 with a "squat" A-frame Gate Lodge. Initially Wytheville only featured 36 guest units, but by the time it ceased being a HoJo's in 1996, it had come to offer 100.

The small Nims-type Restaurant probably lasted until the late 1980s. It was demolished and a Bob Evans occupied its site by 1992. Moreover, part of an adjacent parcel of hillside was leveled out and sprouted a Cracker Barrel.
