Sunriver Resort
Sunriver Resort is a luxury resort and residential community in central Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The resort is located at the edge of the high desert, just east of the Cascade Range, in Sunriver, south of Bend and south-southeast of Portland. The Sunriver Resort Hotel is managed by Destination Hotels & Resorts. The common areas throughout the Sunriver resort community are managed by the Sunriver Owners Association. The elevation of the resort is above sea level.
==History==
Sunriver's land used to be a lake bed, which dried out and became a meadow. It was a meeting place for Native Americans living in the area and was later adopted by settlers, trappers, and explorers, including Peter Skene Ogden, Kit Carson, and John Fremont, who led expeditions along the Deschutes River in the early-to-mid-19th century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Resort History ) 〕
In 1943, the meadow was claimed as a training ground for combat construction battalions of the U.S. Army and was established as Camp Abbot. Construction was started on the camp in November 1942 and it officially opened when Colonel Frank S. Benson assumed command on May 12, 1943.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Camp Abbot-Sunriver's Proud Roots )〕 It closed soon after D-Day in July 1944 and most of the buildings were razed.〔 The officer's club, constructed from native logs and stones,〔 was left standing and is now the "Great Hall," used for meetings and weddings.〔 Following the war, the land returned to use as a cattle ranch until the mid-1960s.
In 1965, Donald V. McCallum (1918–1987), a Portland attorney, and John D. Gray (1919–2012), founder of Omark Industries, bought the land and planned to build a luxury resort on it. Their idea was to create a resort and residential community with a focus on maintaining the integrity of the environment, including creating a finite number of home sites.〔 The first home site at Sunriver was sold in 1968 on June 28, and ground was broken on the resort's lodge in mid-August, which opened in September 1969. The resort that McCallum and Gray established was bought in 1993 by Sunriver Resort Limited Partnership, who began an extensive capital improvement program.
