Today, Caro Motel is a well balanced community with a strong industrial base and a viable business district, a good school system and many recreational facilities.

The Caro Motel was designed for busy travelers who wanted to easily go "in and out," and get on their way. A guest would park their car outside directly in front of their room and enter from the outside. This was unlike traditional motels where you had to enter an inside lobby and walk through a hallway. Like the Drive-In restaurants, the Caro Motel design concept was a prelude to the highway-access motels we have today.
