1155 Marina Rd - Beaverdam Marina and Adventure Center 1,680 SF Specialty Building Offered at $2,500,000 in Elberton, GA 30635

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a successful, long-running, marina on Georgia’s Lake Richard B. Russell shoreline. Beaverdam Marina and Adventure Center is a hidden gem on a beautiful, undeveloped lake within close proximity to major population centers.
The 112 covered boat slips are at full occupancy, with a wait list. A new owner can continue to capitalize on diverse profit centers, including covered boat slip rentals, covered single-bay self-service boat storage, outdoor trailered boat storage, a fuel dock, a restaurant (The Anchor Restaurant), and a private boat ramp. There is plenty of value-add upside for a new owner to realize, including wet slip expansion with the addition of 60 covered slips awaiting USACE approval (with no new shoreline infrastructure required). Additional, easily-tapped, valueadd opportunities include introducing boat rentals, boat service and repair (an existing service garage is being used by an area mechanic for free), short-term vacation rentals in the two existing 3-bed/2bath trailers, and expanding the restaurant’s operating hours (historically seasonal from May- September).
All improvements are in great condition, with no deferred maintenance issues. Ownership has recently undertaken a major CapEx overhaul, including newly refurbished docks, extensive improvements to the grounds (riprap, concrete retaining walls, concrete paved public areas, and more), a massive outdoor adventure space with nearly an acre of artificial turf play-area, and extensive restaurant renovations including a new outdoor bar and seating area.
Beaverdam Marina sits on 472+/- park-like acres of US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) land with frontage on lake Russell. The facility occupies only 12+/- acres of developed land, leaving 460+/- acres of undeveloped land for future expansion. The facility is operated under leasehold interest via a sublease from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources – GADNR (“Sublease”), which holds a master lease with the USACE (“Prime Lease”). Lake Richard B. Russell maintains a very stable pool, making dock operations relatively easy. Minimal lake pool fluctuation averages are around 5’.
