DENVER, CO – February 3, 2022 – CoralTree Hospitality, one of the top independent hospitality management companies in the United States, starts the New Year by adding Sunriver Resort near Bend, Oregon to its growing management portfolio. Situated in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, Sunriver is a 3,300-acre residential resort community with four golf courses, 245 hotel rooms, 282 vacation rentals, 11 restaurants, the 36,000 square foot Sage Springs Club and Spa, more than 45,000 square feet of meeting space and the only private resort airstrip in the Pacific Northwest. Sunriver’s amenities are located throughout three distinct communities – Sunriver, Crosswater and Caldera Springs.
“We are excited to work with such a seasoned team at Sunriver,” said Tom Luersen, president of CoralTree. “Our parent company Lowe has been involved with the resort community since the 1990s and was an integral part of the expansion of Sunriver over the last three decades.
