EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Prime Investment Opportunity: Historic Motel in Robbinsville, NC. Own a charming 21-25 room historic motel in the heart of Robbinsville, a bustling tourist destination in western North Carolina.

Key Features:
Location: Just 1 mile from Lake Santeetlah and near iconic roads like the Tail of the Dragon and Cherohala Skyway, drawing motorcyclists, car enthusiasts, hikers, and rafters. Close to Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Great Smoky Mountains, and Nantahala Gorge.
Property: Built in the 1940s, this state-designated historic motel offers 21 rooms (various configurations, $90-$150/night) plus 2 apartments. Includes a 5-bedroom, 4-bath owner’s home, which can be reconfigured for 3-4 additional guest rooms. Features cozy courtyards with 3 fire pits.
