 Powell Butte,
Ore. – July 13 , 2011 –
After purchasing Brasada Ranch,
a luxury resort and golf course located
16 miles northeast of Bend, Ore., Northview Hotel Group has finished
putting
the final touches on a three million dollar renovation
and now offers guests several new recreational options.
Northview Hotel
Group purchased the Brasada Ranch property in Nov. 2010. Since that
time the

equestrian
program and athletic center.
“Brasada Ranch
is pleased to offer these new features and activities to our guests. We
really
have something for everyone and are committed to providing a special
experience
for each guest,” said Brent McLean, vice president of sales and
marketing for
Brasada Ranch. “We are certain a stay at Brasada Ranch will be a
memorable one,
whether you lounge at one of our pools, tee it up on our Peter
Jacobsen-designed golf course, or head out on horseback for a trail
ride.”
Brasada
Ranch’s new amenities:
- Four
New Ranch House Lodge Suites
feature expansive windows, gas fireplaces, large private terraces, and
the
Resort’s finest views. The spacious suites are 500- to 900-square-feet.

ingredients.

Ranch House offers
guests a casual dining experience with organic coffees and teas,
house-made pastries,
gourmet breakfast dishes and a menu of smaller plates including salads,

well as a
pneumatic wine system.
