Considering how many Hotels and Motels for fisherfolks and snow folks have floundered over the years up that way and the fact that they cannot generally charge any 'high end' prices it will be interesting to see the result here.
DSR makes it work very well with its combo of P to P and available on site rooms. The fishing down low however is the draw there and up top is often a VERY different story.
Of course any decent company had done a thorough survey of its options before the fiscal input with a good idea of profits being made.
At this point my only hope for Altmar is that they didnt sell to someone using even a few Federal dollars for any kind of housing or treatment facility- We have far too many of them around here- BIG issues sometimes follow those kind of places depending on their mandate- What a great place for a drug rehab facility- Two guys fishing and three to watch the car and gear- lol.
That said the general area does house an unusual number of facilities that seem well managed with few of the City issues we put up with here.
The new gimmick is when they tell ya its for Veterans- we all imagine wounded folks needing assistance- after approvals ya hear the truth- Vets Preferred If they are on 'the list' and ya end up with those with 'issues' who never saw 'action' or any Military service- or any job at all for that matter.and are chronically unemployed with substance as well as other 'issues'.
We finally said NO a few years back when they wanted one with a big wall all around it 'to keep the public away from the clients" --lol They never did admit who was going in there but the wall and secure gate said it all.
