Owned & operated by only three families since the 1930’s, the current owners have operated Daven Haven Lodge since 1990. After 32 years they are ready to retire. Grand Lake is one of Colorado’s most popular summer/winter recreational and vacation destinations.

There is MUCH GREATER INCOME POTENTIAL to be made if operated with new energy, updated marketing techniques and bright new ideas. Current listing price is a 10% cap rate. The property is in great shape and has no deferred maintenance. The buildings and grounds have been maintained and improved annually. Backstreet Steakhouse has a great local reputation and is currently open 5 nights per week; Wed-Sun nights during peak summer season and weekends only in the winter. Hours can be extended and create a great deal of potential restaurant income by adding additional nights and weekend breakfast and lunch. Additionally the seasonality of the Grand Lake community allows for the owners to close for vacation and/or repairs and maintenance mid-March thru April (mud season) and late October thru November, if desired. Expanded catering has very high-income potential. The current owner has been operating a catering business for several years and routinely turns down events due to the overwhelming demand.

With proper marketing, a caterer can book the facility on a year-round basis. The sale includes: 1.
