About the Business

Business Description

Restaurant, Rental Cabins, and New Owners Residence over 3,200' with 4 Bedrooms and 3 Bedrooms - Many with Lake Views

The owners have built a strong brand drawing about 80% of their restaurant business from locals.

There is an opportunity to grow the catering business by renting/building another kitchen to serve this market. There is a great demand for catering of their faire which they have been unable to serve due to limited facility availability. They do cater when they can work it in. NOTE: There are 145 companies with 20-999 employees in the county.

The owners have made major upgrades and additions every year for the past 5+ years, resulting in growing sales and profits year over year. The new owner should be able to focus on managing and promoting the business since all of the upgrades have been completed.

Restaurant seats 150, with many tables having a lakeview. There is a large patio area with lake views too. Sales for 2019 were initially impacted as they made adjustments due to COVID restrictions. They ended up with sales slightly greater than 2018 but cost where higher reducing net.

In spite of COVID they ended up profitable in 2019 with 2020 Sales & Net up 25%/55% over 2019 and 2021 Sales & Net up 25%/35% over 2020

Sales for 2021 completed another record year. There has been consistent substantial growth for past 5 years. Sales have been boosted by all the upgrades and excellent management of this property.

The owner's house is 4 bedrooms + 3 Baths and could easily be converted into 3 rental units. A unit could be set aside for onsite manager to live. The new owner could use the top two floors which would consist of a 3 bedroom with 2 bath home. The lower level could then be converted into two rental units.

There are currently 11 rental cabins which have all been upgraded and many have lake views. Rental sales for 2021 are almost triple 2017 rentals and they turn people away every season. There is a total of approx. 6 acres with room to add 3 cabins without taking away from the intimate feel of this unique property. The owner estimates the cost per new cabin would be $60K each.

Real Estate is Listed by Richard Roberts at The Brandon Group.
