"Ofland Hotels stated that 'softening market demand' drove its retreat from the luxury eco-resort project. Luke Searcy, head of development, emphasized the need to adapt to industry shifts."
"The project was planned for 152 acres of undeveloped land in the Indian Cove area, but faced opposition from neighbors and conservationists who filed a lawsuit over environmental concerns."
"Ofland Hotels plans to redirect its focus towards a resort near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and another project near Zion National Park, with details to be announced later."
Ofland Hotels has scrapped plans for a luxury eco-resort near Joshua Tree National Park after facing a lawsuit from conservationists and neighbors. The company cited changing market and financial conditions as reasons for abandoning the project, rather than the litigation. The project was planned for 152 acres in Twentynine Palms but fell out of escrow with the prospective buyer. Ofland Hotels will now focus on other projects, including a resort near the Great Smoky Mountains and another near Zion National Park.
