Supplements: rental cabins and a long-term rental apartment, providing diversified income and an average annual gross revenue of approximately $74,785 over the past five years. With peak summer occupancy between 70% and 90%, an established direct booking platform, and a history of repeat guests, the foundation is already in place for continued success. Over $255,000 has been invested in thoughtful upgrades and infrastructure, including extensive renovations to both cabins, new roofs, commercial-grade FLO EV charging stations, private river access improvements, professional riverbank restoration, and extensive landscaping.
