The resort’s gathering place, with reception and a private office.

Guest spaces

Covered dining and lounge areas will open onto a shared courtyard for relaxation and small gatherings. Shared restrooms will serve guests using the common facilities.

Reception and operations

A clearly identified reception entrance and short-term arrival parking will support check-in. A private, lockable office, storage and service access will be separated from social activity.

Clubhouse size will be established through design and cost review.

Clubhouse planning treats enclosed, covered and courtyard spaces as separate areas. Pool, bar, kitchen and wellness facilities remain options to explore as the clubhouse design develops.

Other shared amenities

Places to gather and play will complement the private suite experience.

Private and shared water experiences

The right combination should balance privacy, shared recreation and maintenance.

Private courtyard water-feature concept

At the suites

Private features could include hot tubs, plunge pools and outdoor showers, alongside each suite’s private bathroom.

Shared clubhouse pool concept

At the clubhouse

The shared pool could follow the original concept, be reduced or be omitted. A shared hot tub or spa is another option to explore.

Directions to explore

Private-first

Private tubs or pools could take priority, with a smaller shared pool or none. Individual systems would need servicing access.

A selective mix

Selected suites could have private water alongside a compact shared pool, offering different experiences within the resort.

Shared-first

A clubhouse pool and optional spa could serve suites without private tubs or pools, concentrating the water experience in one place.

All private water features remain optional. Utilities, maintenance and site conditions will inform the private/shared water mix.

Protect the wedding experience

Prima Vista will remain an active wedding venue as the resort takes shape around it.

Preserve ceremony views

The preferred outcome is no visible new development from ceremony areas. Building heights, road alignments, lighting and retained trees help preserve the natural backdrop.

Keep guest routes separate

A dedicated resort entrance and separate circulation are intended to keep resort guests, deliveries and construction traffic clear of wedding arrivals and ceremony spaces.

Protect event-day quiet

Construction hours and deliveries would work around booked events, with noise and dust controlled. The operating layout would also limit disruption from resort activity after opening.

Supporting accessPlanning considerations
Entrances and connectionsThe proposed resort gate and route connect toward existing parking, with wedding access maintained throughout construction.
Suite and shared accessEach suite has a proposed one-car driveway to its entrance, with access spurs to the clubhouse and court and clear service and emergency routes.
Road design and sequencingRoad planning accounts for turning space, drainage, surfaces and phased access that limit dust and disruption.

Wedding continuity guides the layout and construction sequence.

The aim is minimal visual intrusion, noise and access conflicts, with separation between wedding operations and resort activity wherever possible.

Infrastructure to support the resort

Year-round guest comfort begins with dependable systems and thoughtful site design.

Building on existing infrastructure

Water well

An existing well serves the property. Resort demand will require increased supply through improvements or an additional well.

Septic

Existing septic systems serve the property. Expanded or additional systems will accommodate the resort’s wastewater.

Propane

New propane infrastructure is expected, with storage and distribution serving the resort.
