The Resort's 141 guestrooms and suites, nine-hole golf course, Tower Spa, 20,000 square feet of event space, and other unique amenities make it an unforgettable destination for leisure and business travelers alike.
"Performance at the resort achieved record revenues and profitability post-pandemic. Being on 1,700 acres, there are also abundant opportunities to add value with expanded capacity or uses," said Hurd. "As a result, we witnessed robust interest from diverse buyer groups, including funds, institutional and high net worth investors."
The Property is within a day's drive of a population of 100-million people and is easily accessible from major cities including Boston, New York City, and Montreal.

"In addition to the Resort's exceptional post-pandemic performance, developable acreage and ‘sweet spot' location, Ownership was a committed steward of the Resort during their tenure, and, as a result, investors responded positively to the Property's excellent condition," said Alexander Bauman, an Associate with RobertDouglas.
