Champion modular construction provides extended stay lodging for the Bakken Shale

This four-story, 240 hotel room was built with modular construction to meet the needs of the growing demand for lodging in Williston, North Dakota.

This facility services the Bakken Shale region with a state-of-the-art, full-service kitchen, game room, fitness center and meeting rooms. The Dakota Lodge sets the bar high for excellence among other hotels in the region.

Project Scope

• 28 modules – 99,700 sq. ft. of modules
• 240 generously-sized single and double occupancy rooms
• Full-service kitchen and dining facility
• Game room, fitness center and meeting rooms

Challenge

This project faced the challenge of being built during the harsh North Dakota winter months coupled with limited local resources of labor and materials.

Solution

By using Champion modular solutions, the project proved to be a major time and cost savings, along with meeting the tight project schedule. 128 modules were built off site in Champion’s Weiser, Idaho, facility using less than 40 production days in building out of nearly 100,000 square feet and 240 guestrooms.
