The Heart of the Bakken Continues to Grow -- Hotel, Restaurant, Man Camp -- Williston, North Dakota

New hotel and restaurant set to open.

As Williston continues to grow, two new businesses have set up shop in town. Big Willy's Saloon and Grill and the HomStay Suites hotel have opened in the north west section of town, near Sloulin Field International Airport.

Another man camp was approved.

The proposed housing would be for approximately 100 people and would be used by RNI Trucking out of Vernal, Utah.

Evans said the housing would be 12 miles west of Williston, on a 10-acre parcel of land in Judson Township. It would be located on the south side of U.S Highway 2.
