Trendwest will also be acquiring the equivalent of nine to ten fully developed units at the resort.

"Trendwest will also have an on-site sales office at this location," William F. Peare, Trendwest's president and CEO said. "Expected to open June 16, it will be the company's first sales office in the Rocky Mountain region.

"Startup costs, typical with establishing a new sales location, are expected to be less at Wolf Creek because of an ideal pre-existing facility."

The Wolf Creek Resort has been in existence since 1960 and features one, two and three bedroom condominiums. Area amenities include a championship golf course, recreational center, picnic areas, two swimming pools, weight room and racquetball courts. Wolf Creek is within minutes of three popular ski resorts and is a convenient drive-to destination for owners living in Salt Lake City.

This will become the 23rd resort destination for Trendwest which has resorts ranging from Whistler in British Columbia to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, plus three in Hawaii.

The Wolf Creek, Utah sales office opening will follow closely the recent addition of a sales office in Scottsdale, Ariz. which opened on May 19, establishing a Trendwest presence in the Southwest region.
