We are seeking an exceptional Hotel General Manager to lead a newly redeveloped, elevated boutique hotel in one of the Pacific Northwest’s most breathtaking and restorative locations.

This brand-new, fully renovated property has been reimagined from the ground up — from the lobby and event spaces to every guest room. Designed by renowned hospitality designer W. Brian Smith, with the grounds and outdoor experiences curated by landscape design team Terremotto, the hotel is intentionally positioned as a health- and wellness-forward hospitality destination.
