The new owners of Rosario Village, previously Rosario Resort, have successfully avoided auction and are on track with their plans for 2025. Chris Robison, Orcas resident, along with his partners Jack and Mark vanHartesvel, paid off the creditors who were forcing the property to default and had the Feb. 14 auction canceled.

They say they’re on track with plans for this year, including the Moran Mansion being open by the summer and construction started on waterfront guestrooms by the end of the year.

“We have made progress on our other projects and are on track for more to be completed by the summer season. We are open for lodging now.” More information can be found at www.rosariovillage.com.
