Since it operates in a small, thriving community, the biggest clientele are the people who come to the community to complete work projects. . We have relationships with many companies who always stay with us when they are in the area. Many of the these people are here from Monday through Friday for weeks at a time. Another big area of business comes during hunting season. From September through December, the Thunderbird welcomes hunters from all over the United States. There are many hunters who return here year after year. The rest of our clientele is a mix. The Thunderbird is a well-established business with a long list of regulars who stay here, and also many people passing through who stop in.
The main building is 6,402 square feet. It is constructed of concrete blocks faced with bricks. The exterior is very low maintenance. All of the rooms open to the outside.

We do not have a website. We do not have any billboards. The Thunderbird Motel operates on word of mouth advertising and people who enjoy staying at mom and pop operations. A new owner could implement some advertising and see the profits rise greatly!
