I think it's a great area, the sulpher springs are toooo cool, and I love the area, but a thousand rooms??

Now if you told me it was a small 40-50 room hotel, OK, that would be better, IMHO.

I can see it now, walking through an abandoned lobby, Kenny G musik coming through the PA system, fans turning......... "Hello! Hello?"

As a matter of fact, I'm going to take the better half there this weekend, so she can see how beautiful the area is, before this monster is built..(said in a loving way)
Hate to admit it but you're right, even though I don't think they would make this kind of investment without the proper market research, I think it would be marketed as a health spa and golfing destination more than anything , but I do agree that 1000 rooms is a bit excessive for a pilot project in an undeveloped area, especially Canoa, I would've never dreamed of this kind of project in this area.
