And now I read that the current owner has sold the El Rancho. The Williston Herald is reporting:
A limited liability company purchased the El Rancho Hotel for an undisclosed sum December 1, 2014.
El Rancho LLC, managed by investor John Tennant, of Vancouver, WA, now owns the hotel on Million Dollar Way.
Day-to-day operations won’t change, Tennant said.
“It’s a very well established hotel in the community and very well maintained,” he said. “The community will see no changes as far as the management is concerned.”
Tennant is also a major investor in the Home Place Lodge and Suites on West Dakota Parkway, near Cutting Field.
Cindy Aafedt, a major shareholder to the sale, will continue managing the hotel.
“I’m still the manager, our employees are still our employees,” Aafedt said. “The point is that the El Rancho Hotel has new owners.”
For those wondering (I was):
The Williston Brewing Company leases space from the hotel, but isn’t affected by the new ownership.
“The sellers kept that lease,” Tennant said, adding he expects they’ll renew it. “Both the brewery and the hotel are doing very well with that lease.”
