This image shows a road leading to a collection of separate cottages that make up the Off the Hi-Way Court, an early version of motel.
The caption states:

3 BLOCKS OFF ROUTE 64
SAVANNA, ILLINOIS
PHONE 6844
–There is no additional description on the back of this card, as it is a typical photo-card converted from a photo by stamping the back with postcard markings.
Savanna, Illinois is on the border of Illinois and Iowa, separated by the Mississippi River. It is very unlikely this establishment still exists.
This image likely dates from the 1940s.
Off the Hi-way Court, Savannah, Illinois
