You have probably noticed that our little corner of the world has seen some really big changes recently.  There are a lot of new businesses opening up, lots more traffic, and there is a lot of construction going on.  We just wanted to share with you some of the new subdivisions that are underway in Washington County.

Sand Hollow Resort:  A 27-hole public play course on an 800-acre development just west of Sand Hollow Reservoir.  When completed, the development will have approximately 1,800 dwellings ranging from condominium and town homes to custom golf course estate homes.  It will also include vacation villas with a spa resort.
Elim Valley:  A 2,300-acre project which is located on the Winding River property just to the north of the Sand Hollow Reservoir.  It will include an 18-hole public play course designed by Robert Trent Jones and between 7,000 to 10,000 home sites.   Upscale commercial development along SR9 will also be developed.
