Xanterra Parks and Resorts

Xanterra Parks & Resorts (formerly Amfac Resorts and Amfac Parks & Resorts) is a privately owned United States park and resort management company based in Greenwood Village, Colorado, controlled by entertainment magnate Phillip Anschutz. Denver-based billionaire Anschutz, who has an extensive history of developing and operating mineral, railroad, newsmedia and entertainment enterprises, is one of the largest private promoters of live events in the world, most notably soccer.
==History==
A legacy of the 19th century Fred Harvey Company, after the death of the founder's grandson in 1965, the company became affiliated with Chicago-based JMB Realty, which acquired large Hawaii landholder Amfac in 1968 and broke it up into independent corporations including Amfac Resorts. In 1995, Amfac bought the large national parks management concession TW Recreational Services from Flagstar.〔Fred Harvey - Civilizer of the West - ''Territorial Times'' - Williams, Arizona - No. 1 Vol. XXIII〕 In 2002, Amfac changed its corporate name to Xanterra after the bankruptcy of Amfac Hawaii.〔(Resort Operator Amfac Changes Name to Xanterra Parks & Resorts ) - Hotel Online - April 5, 2002〕 The name comes from a combination of Xanadu and terra, meaning Earth.〔Xanterra:Grand Canyon Railway's New ownership - Territorial Times - Williams, Arizona - No. 1 Vol. XXIII〕 The Anschutz Company bought Xanterra from JMB in 2008.〔(Anschutz to acquire operator of parks ) ''The Denver Post''.〕
Xanterra specializes in tourism in U.S. National Parks, and has a presence in Yellowstone and Grand Canyon, and a number of other national and state parks. They are contracted by the US National Park Service to provide lodging and services in these parks. Accommodations and pricing vary widely and include quality hotel rooms, lodges, rustic cabins, motel-style lodging and camping.
The most notable of the original Harvey operations is the Grand Canyon South Rim concession, including the El Tovar Hotel. The company owns the Grand Canyon Railway. In July, 2010, the company announced it was acquiring the Kingsmill Resort near Williamsburg, Virginia. The Kingsmill Resort was developed beginning in the 1970s as part of Anheuser-Busch's projects of theme parks, residential, commercial and industrial developments coordinated between August Busch and Winthrop Rockefeller intended to complement Colonial Williamsburg and enhance both the region's tourism attractions and local economy.
