Travel Desk/Brief
Field & Stream Lodge has announced two new hotels, conversions in Bend and Big Bear, opening in 2028. The brand's growth is being paced by high capital costs, according to its backers.
Field & Stream Lodge, a hotel brand launched in 2023, is adding two more properties. Both are conversions, one in Bend and one in Big Bear, and both are scheduled to open in 2028. The brand's backers, Starwood Capital and AJ Capital, say that high capital costs are setting the pace for building the brand. For travellers, this means new accommodation options in those destinations are still several years away.

Stated by Skift
This is a slow, capital-constrained expansion, so independent travellers should not expect these hotels to be bookable for several years.
What the reporting says: Field & Stream Lodge launched in 2023 and that its second and third properties, conversions in Bend and Big Bear, are opening in 2028, with Starwood Capital and AJ Capital saying high capital costs are setting the pace for brand-building.
