The
last of the snow is melting away from the lower reaches of the
surrounding
mountains to unveil the first spectacular summer At Nature's
Door and Tonopalo. As of this writing final details are being completed
At Nature's Door and all upgrades are finished at Tonopalo.
Both destinations are open and your Innkeepers eagerly await your
coming vacations.
Thanks
very much for the patience that you have given us while we
have
addressed the items that have needed repairing, replacing or
re-thinking. It has been a challenge for everyone since opening,
and while
patience has been tested there's been a lot of happiness
going around. Based on our phone surveys and the comment cards
you have returned, satisfaction levels are sitting at 4.7 out
of five. So where does that 0.3 come in? The answer is in project
completion and deficiencies. Today, we have addressed virtually
all of those concerns. We will have taken care of such finishing
touches and final street paving as soon as weather and logistics
permit.
