From atop a snowy knoll along the icy headwaters of the Colorado River, Derek Wilson beckons across a field of beeping, growling earthmovers.
Wilson, an executive with Sun Communities, the nation’s largest builder of manufactured home communities, is betting big on the expanding RV movement.
And Sun is staking a claim in Granby, Colo., with an audacious plan for RV slips, rental cabins, for-sale villas and glamping spots surrounding a resort clubhouse with a swimming pool, a bowling alley, a bistro and store, fishing ponds and an affordable mobile home community, according to the Colorado Sun.
It’s a resort development concept unlike anything in Colorado, arriving in the middle of a sweeping renaissance in Grand County.
