A 21st
Century eco-resort is born from a depression-era hunting
retreat.
Touring around the
country with my parents in the ‘60s meant the occasional stop at a caravan park
or motel. Even though motels were ‘pretty ordinary’ back then, the caravan parks
reminded me more of my uncle’s wrecking yard back home. Plywood overnight vans
and cabins were riddled with damp, spiders and cockroaches. Grumpy managers
would snap at the kids if we dared play around the yard and the food, well
that’s best forgotten. So much has changed in our hospitality industry I shake
my head and sigh when I think of the so-called “good old days”.
