The Fairfield Inn is still slated to open in mid-June 2020, catching up after inclement weather led to some delays.

The hotel will be a 92-room Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott at TimberMill Shores, located off Klamath Avenue, near Veterans Memorial Park, in downtown Klamath Falls.

The construction crew is laying down the roof on the project now, and plumbing and electric installation will begin next.

The Inn is recruiting for a general manager position, and that person will work on-site with the construction team. In total, the Inn will employ 22 to 25 people, according to past H&N reporting.

Also in TimberMill Shores, Peoples Bank broke ground in late August.

Bogatay Headquarters

Bogatay construction is also on schedule for its new operations division headquarters on Venture Way in Tech Hills near Dan O’Brien Way, which is expected to open in May.

All the structural steel is in place and work has begun on siding and roofing.

Bogatay Construction is a Klamath Falls-based commercial, industrial and residential contracting firm.
