(Pool Access/Use) Our Evinrude Suite (at Clifton Guest and Fishing Lodge), named after Ralph S. Evinrude (famous for being the Chairman of Outboard Motor Corporation and marrying movie star, Frances Langford) is an off-site (250 feet from the Main Hotel Building) 1,250 square foot suite located on spacious grounds (approximately 1/2 acre) surrounding a large swimming pool with "Golden Mean" dimensions (44 x 27 foot lap pool) and spa. This luxurious suite features: antique Florida heart-pine flooring; a king-sized bed in a separate Master Bedroom suite that contains its own partially equipped kitchenette with dining table, a separate sitting area, and its own bathroom with shower; a queen-sized bed in a second bedroom with its own partially equipped kitchenette; a grand Living Room with oversized couches, chairs, bar, and card table; a separate wine bar room with comfortable oversized chairs; a separate sitting area with a single- sized sleeper sofa; a second bathroom with shower; 3 separate private porches with comfortable outdoor furnishings; and access to the pool and spa. This suite comprises the entire ground floor of the historic Clifton Guest and Fishing Lodge which was originally built in 1914 by well know architect, Sam Matthews, and has been extensively renovated by renowned interior decorator, Diane Devant, who lived in the home from 1997 through 2017. In 2018, in order to save the home from being demolished in connection with a proposed luxury condominium development, the owners of the Old Colorado Inn relocated the historic structure to the Old Colorado Inn property via barge along the St. Lucie River and performed additional renovations to the home. In the early 1950's Ralph Evinrude (Chairman of the Outboard Marine Corporation) stayed at the Clifton Guest and Fishing Lodge while he was courting the famous movie star, Frances Langford. Evinrude eventually married Langford and the the couple settled down in nearby Jensen Beach and have had a lasting impact on the Treasure Coast due to their generous philanthropic legacy.

We booked the Evinrude Suite at the OCI as we needed a quiet family landing pad convenient to Cleveland Clinic. The set up was perfect as there was plenty of gathering space but good privacy given the location of the bedrooms and bath. The booking was easy, the staff was great and the location couldn’t be better, whether for a fun spot or for situations such as ours. Very easy parking. The beds were super comfortable, and we loved having kitchenettes in both bedrooms. Definitely recommend staying here when going to Stuart.
