The Circle B Motor Lodge was established in 1953 on the outskirts of Benkelman, Nebraska. Four couples have owned the motel since it opened its doors. The first owners, who built the facility, were Ray and Juanita Bravard. Next, Richard and Elsie Anderson took ownership from 1961 to 1984. Vern & Sherry Beckman purchased the motel from the Andersons and ran the business until 1998. The current owners, Shane & Nickole Sis, are in their seventh year of owning and operating the motor lodge.

The motel has 17 rooms -- 10 on the ground floor and 7 upstairs. Of those 17, nine are rooms with one bed (singles), seven are rooms with two beds (doubles), and 1 room has three beds (triple). Our rooms are clean and comfortable, with air conditioning, a great cable TV selection, in-room direct dial phones, and wireless internet access for a minimal charge.

The motel was originally built in 1953 as part of a complex which included a filling station, restaurant, and motel. Unfortunately, the filling station closed its doors in 1989, and the restaurant in 2006. However, the Circle B Motor Lodge is still going strong!
