NOTES
Additional Information:"The Holiday Motel predates 1956, which likely make it one of the oldest lodging facilities on USH 12 south of the Lake Delton business district. The entity then contained twenty rooms, was operated by the Traficante Brothers and was adjacent to the Mc Boyle Dells airport. Despite the age of the business, observation clearly indicates that the motel was largely modified or rebuilt in the circa-1970 period." Heritage Research, Ltd., 2007
