The Site of the Rothbury Music Festival Sold
The sale of the Double JJ Ranch & Resort in southwestern Michigan to an investment group has been finalized.
The transaction Tuesday came only two days before the second annual Rothbury music festival gets under way at the resort 45 miles northwest of Grand Rapids.
Progressive Resorts LLC of Michigan, an affiliate of Erie, Pa.-based American Resort Management LLC, is the new owner.
Progressive Resorts has said it wants to restore the more than 1,200-acre Double JJ to a functioning guest ranch in the next few weeks and rehire hundreds of ranch employees.
Established in 1937, the ranch offers golf, an indoor water park, horseback riding, snow tubing, dog sledding, a family entertainment center, old western town and specialty restaurants.
