Kah-Nee-Ta Resort & Spa to close, all 146 employees to be laid off

A popular resort that's been drawing visitors to an Olympic-size hot springs swimming pool in Central Oregon for decades will shut down at the end of the summer.

Kah-Nee-Ta Resort & Spa, which sits on the land of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs about two hours from Portland, filed a WARN notice with the state Friday, announcing that it plans to permanently lay off 146 employees starting Sept. 5, 2018.

Along with the layoffs will come the closure of the resort, which includes a lodge, spa, hotel and RV park.

A letter to employees included in the WARN notice thanked them for their service and efforts "in providing our guests a relaxing vacation for the remainder of the 2018 season."

Maybe they will find a way to reopen the place in the future.
