The Merrill Group of Cos. LLC of Las Vegas opened a Lowe's Home Improvement Store in Vernal, Utah this last fall. Now they are building a 109 room, four story hotel suites there.
Carol Dvorak, director of project management said that they went to build the shopping center and could not get a room and had to stay 20 minutes away. After doing a study they determined another hotel was needed and the are building one now.
Vernal residents will be happy to see more lodging for tourists again. The energy field workers are living in many of the rooms in town and a guest needs to plan far ahead to get a room just for a visit. Rentals are scarce as is economical housing.
