13026 Tabeaud Rd - Gold Country Campground Resort 3,973 SF Specialty Building Offered at $4,900,000 at a 7.59% Cap Rate in Pine Grove, CA 95665

Park Brokerage, in cooperation with California Broker of Record ParaSell Inc. is proud to bring to market Gold Country Campground Resort a premier, year-round outdoor hospitality destination nestled in the breathtaking, heavily wooded Sierra Nevada foothills of Pine Grove, California. Designed as a true "Paradise in the Pines," this 45.7-acre resort seamlessly blends rustic mountain charm with resort-quality amenities. It offers a pristine, quiet getaway perfectly suited for
experiential travel and family entertainment.
Strategically positioned along the widely traveled Highway 88 corridor, the resort is exceptionally accessible for large Class A motorhomes and fifth-wheel trailers. It is an easy drive from the San Joaquin Valley and major Northern California urban hubs like Sacramento, Modesto, and Stockton, alongside neighboring cities like Merced and Lodi. While summer temperatures in these valley cities regularly spike to over 100 degrees daily, Gold Country Campground Resort rests comfortably at an elevation of 3,500 feet. This prime elevation offers a much-needed retreat, with temperatures typically 15 to 20 degrees cooler, ensuring a highly comfortable camping experience for guests. Furthermore, sitting just 45 minutes from the resort community of Lake Tahoe, the property serves as a natural and convenient stopover spot for vacationers heading to the high Sierras. The property also benefits from a concentrated cluster of entertainment venues, with three full-service casinos located within an hour's drive: Jackson Rancheria Casino, Harrah's Northern California, and Acorn Ridge Casino. Together, these destinations provide year-round dining, live entertainment, and gaming options that drive consistent adult visitation. Combined with world-class winter snow sports at Kirkwood Ski Resort—located just forty-five minutes up the alpine corridor—the surrounding area delivers diverse, year-round demand drivers that protect against seasonal lulls.
The resort caters to a wide demographic of outdoor enthusiasts with 130 total units and a diverse array of lodging options including spacious, big-rig friendly sites featuring full hookups, 30/50 amp service, and premium upgrades like Deluxe Sites with private fire pits. For those seeking a more traditional stay, the property boasts charming stick-built rental cabins, comfortable motel rooms, a spacious multi-room vacation lodge, and dedicated tent camping sites. Guests enjoy exclusive access to a large, sparkling swimming pool and an interactive water splash pad that serves as a major draw for families during the summer months. The on-site experience includes a well-maintained mini-golf course, an arcade, billiards, horseshoes, basketball, a playground, beautifully wooded nature trails, and two large clubhouses. The park provides complimentary premium Wi-Fi, basic cable at RV sites, immaculate restroom and shower facilities, and a spacious, dedicated dog park for four-legged guests.
Serviced by public water and septic, the property includes a double-wide manufactured home for on-site management and three park models. The resort offers massive value-add potential and immediate upside for a future operator. Immediate revenue growth can be captured by raising currently below-market rates and activating one unused park model. Additionally, the offering includes over 27 acres of currently unutilized land, providing a substantial footprint to explore potential park expansion or alternative uses—such as installing a solar to offset electrical costs and further drive NOI. Ownership also has county confirmation that converting existing tent sites into RV sites requires no Conditional Use Permit (CUP) or planning entitlements. Two prime conversion sites are already outlined in the offering, and the majority of existing tent sites can easily accommodate any size RV. Furthermore, the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) only applies to the lodges and cabins—not the RV sites—resulting in a natural enhancement to the bottom line. Finally, the park has showcased incredible resilience over the last three years despite a PG&E easement violation that temporarily blocked guest access and suppressed revenue. With that project now fully completed, a new owner is perfectly positioned to see a substantial revenue bounce-back in Year 1.
