Auberge Hotel Set to Open Spring of 2078

Ketchum, ID- Excitement has been steadily building for the last 7 years as area developer, Jack Bariteau, has touted and teased the community with plans for a 5 star hotel to be constructed on Ketchum’s main street.

“We’re closer than ever.” stated Bariteau while peering down into his giant hole. “There’s a chance we’ll be able to make the hole even bigger this fall. Once the hole is fully agape, we can start cramming stuff in it.”

The project has faced numerous financial hurdles over the years as banks and private equity funds have been less inclined to piss money away on shitty investments. “2008 really hurt us.” said Bariteau. “The sucker and bag holder market has yet to fully recover but, as you can see from my hole, there’s light at the end of the tunnel.”
