Rankin Motel

Rankin Motel

As the automobile industry became popular so did family vacations and lodging. In 1924, D.K. Rankin and his brother Hugh built the Rankin Auto Court cabins and the Log Cabin Motel cabins. D.K. and his wife Eva with their five children ran their farm and rented their cabins. Betty (Rankin) Grover and her husband bought the business from her dad and expanded with more units. Today, Betty’s daughters Jenny and Kim have worked very hard to keep the family tradition alive! They have 4 cabins; each with two bedrooms, microwave, refrigerator, and a coffee pot. Plus 6 other rooms. All their rooms have cable T.V. They have been working very hard to give their business a facelift and to upkeep the landscaping with new flower beds and a business sign depicting the heritage. In 2022, the Rankin Motel was listed on the National Historic Register of Places. 

So, if you have family or friends that need a place to rest on their way to Yellowstone Park or over to the beautiful Grand Tetons; have them make Rankin Motel their destination for a rest! For reservations call (208) 652-3570 and they’ll leave the light on!
