This is the land-search side of the vision: where to look, what to filter for, and how to evaluate whether a property can actually support the destination experience you want to build.
The goal is not just to find pretty acreage. Plenty of pretty acreage is useless. The goal is to find land that can carry access, experience, operations, and long-term viability without fighting you every step of the way.
These are the first-pass filters. A strong site does not need to be perfect, but it does need to make the core experience easier rather than harder.
The region matters because guest demand, drive time, nearby attractions, and municipal attitude all shape the viability of the experience.
The land itself must support movement, views, build areas, service zones, and a layered guest experience without becoming a logistical punishment.
A magical property in the wrong rules environment becomes a bureaucratic gym membership nobody asked for.
