Just as their dream was being realized, John Record was killed in a plane crash in 1989. Carol completed the restoration and opened the hotel later that year, exactly one hundred years after the Boothbys first opened their home to guests in 1889. Carole Record died in April 1991. In January 1998 the hotel was bought by Mike and Jo Turner . Like Jennie Boothby and Mary Grieve, Jo has made the Dinner House a favorite of guests and locals alike.
Prospect is once again a popular stop for travelers enjoying the natural wonders of the area .
The Prospect Hotel and Dinner House again has the facilities and location to be one of the Pacific Coast's best.
