Might need a back up. Yesterday the website said opening November 2018. Today, Jan 2019....these things tend to creep.

Not likely since they weren't with a Nov opening. Seems they are really committed yet. We will likely see a soft opening and reservations coming for the Spring. Unless things move again.

Evidence it'll open Late Q2 (May 10th)....
(read comments from local tourism company )
My guess the property wont be bookable until after March. Perhaps meaning we can't take advantage of extended Cat 7 pricing before Cat 8 is rolled out.
