The Desert Inn Motel was founded as a trading post in the 1880s and was used as a brothel, motel, gas station, bar and dance hall over the years. In 2019, over 25 years after being put on the National Register of Historic Places, it was destroyed by a tractor trailer driving into the side of the building. The motel was never repaired and was left exposed to the elements for over 5 years. It was finally demolished in 2024. Located in Yeehaw Junction, Florida.
