New hotel idea at I-85 and SC 11

By late spring or early summer, the state is likely to be ready to issue a new RFP for the 325-acre Lake Hartwell peninsula at I-85 and SC 11.  A Texas builder, working with a group in Spain, has interest in developing at least part of the southern Oconee County acreage.  A source has given 101.7/WGOG NEWS copies of drawings that depict a proposal to build a lodge, a tavern, a playhouse, cottages, and bungalows, among other entities.
