The "Shared Ownership" Borgata Lodge Schedules 
March Opening in Okanagan Valley, BC
 
One of the key priorities of Destination Resorts Incorporated since it acquired Quail Ridge Resort last summer has been to prepare for the Grand Opening of the Borgata Lodge on March 1st.  The Borgata is the only resort hotel on the golf course in the Okanagan, with prime fairway frontage at the Okanagan Golf Club.  The Lodge is a luxury resort property offering spectacularly appointed 1 bedroom suites with fireplaces, kitchens, 2 full bathrooms, and washer/dryers.  The award winning architecture has a strong Tuscan ambiance.  The Borgata will pamper its guests with 4 star service under the watchful eye of General Manager Sandy Thompson.  Sandy brings over 25 years of resort experience with various hotel chains including Princess, Four Seasons and CP Hotels and Resorts. 

All eyes will be on Quail Ridge Resort in 1999 as a series of very exciting developments are set to unfold.  The activity currently underway reflects the ever increasing importance of Quail Ridge as a destination resort, a contributor to tourism in the Okanagan and an exceptional location for a beautiful new home. 

The Bear Course opens this summer 

The Okanagan�s first 36 hole golf resort and Canada�s third course designed by Jack Nicklaus�s Golden Bear Design will be ready for play this summer.  The Bear Course along with the existing Quail Course form the Okanagan Golf Club, owned by Western Canada�s most respected golf operator Burrard International.  Dick Munn, one of the leading golf consultants in Canada has compared the economic impact of opening the new championship course to that of a new convention center.  This summer will also mark the opening of the new 18,000 square foot clubhouse facility.  The architecture will feature a landmark clock tower and will reflect the charm and character of many of the beautiful buildings at Quail Ridge. 

A new era of resort real estate ownership is about to emerge 

Shared ownership is an innovative form of real estate ownership that is gaining popularity throughout North America.  You have fee simple title.  You own the property.  It is not timeshare. 

It is a way to own a quarter million dollar vacation property  (value varies between units) at a fraction of the cost and have as much access to your property as you would normally want.   We have taken a practice that people have been using for decades and have made it available for everyone.  For generations people have gone together on the purchase of recreational property.  The obvious reason for this is because a vacation home is something you don�t use all the time and to share ownership reduces the expense of owning the property. Simply put, we are making this form of ownership available to you without the need to find other people who are willing to join in on your purchase. 

It is a smart lifestyle decision.  Minimizing your cost and maximizing the value of your vacation property. 

The Borgata Lodge is your gateway to resorts around the world. 

Owning a suite in the Borgata Lodge opens up a world of vacation opportunities.  Through our affiliation with Interval International you may exchange your unit with hundreds of the best resorts in some of the world�s most beautiful places. You may see yourself sunning at the beach, perched on a mountaintop or wandering through a cityscape.  Week after week.  Year after year. 

You own a prime piece of the Okanagan tourism industry. 

The Borgata Lodge is an operating resort hotel.  When you are not using your suite, we will make it available as part of the hotel inventory and will expertly manage it for you.  Hassle free.  Everything is taken care of.  A premium property with premium service,  and achieving premium nightly room rates. The long-term value of owning a prime piece of the Okanagan tourism business can not and should not be understated!
