Daven Haven Lodge · Hospitality Property For Sale · 9,332 SF

Rocky Mountain Resort/Restaurant/Cabins/Catering & Event Center This 2.67 parcel of land perfectly located in the village of Grand Lake Colorado is the last parcel of commercial land this size to be found inside the town limits. Owned, updated, operated and cared for by only 3 families since the 1930’s, present owners have operated Daven Haven Lodge since 1990. After 29 years they are looking to sell and retire. If purchased as currently operated the owners would be willing to stay on for a full summer season in whatever capacity desired with a financial working agreement in place. This would include giving up all trade secrets of operation and all special maintenance and operation procedures in maintaining the cabins and overall property. All current bookings at time of sale must be honored. 9000 sq foot main lodge building. In Main Lodge building: 3br/3ba upstairs apt. Large Commercial kitchen Restaurant seating 62-72 Bar/Lounge seats 32 inside Covered outdoor bar patio seats 36 Inventory to operate restaurant and catering included 12 nightly rental cabins with common grounds, on grounds fire pit, picnic area, horseshoe pit and volleyball court. 6 Employee cabins, large workshop/garage, housekeeping laundry facilities 2 outdoor event pavilions Upper pavilion seats 60 Lower pavilion seats 100 Max seating 110 indoor banquet. Currently the owners having decided to take more personal time have slowed down a bit in operations/marketing and year round opening dates. Currently operating Memorial weekend through early October. Then opening for Xmas week and weekends only through early March when they close for the spring. There is MUCH GREATER INCOME POTENTIAL to be made if operated with new energy, updated marketing techniques and bright new ideas. The property is kept in good shape. Consistent upgrades and care for buildings and grounds has been maintained and improved annually. Backstreet Steakhouse also has a great reputation currently open 5 nights Wed-Sun nights during peak summer season and weekends only in the winter; lots of potential to increase restaurant income adding additional nights open and weekend breakfast and lunch. Additionally the seasonality of our community allows for the owners to close for vacation and/or repairs and maintenance during April (mud season) and late October/early November. Leaving nightly rentals still available and taking a break from opening the restaurant during this slow tourist time. Weddings & celebratory events are a BIG income source and with proper marketing can book the facility on a year round basis. Potential is certainly there. Should the purchasing desire be other than to operate this property as currently run the ideas and possibilities are ALMOST endless because of our zoning. There is not another property of this size in the Village of Grand Lake or nearby surrounding area like it. Private, corporate, personal or organizational use is an option as is the potential to tear it all down & build something new. Water & sewer tap fees are valuable and this property has 14 of them with 2 additional water and sewer lines already brought inside the property. Grand Lake is one of Colorado’s most popular summer/winter recreational and vacation destinations. It is also one of the VERY FEW resort communities that is surrounded by National Forest lands and Rocky Mountain National Park and it also sits on the southern shore of Grand Lake, Colorado’s largest natural lake, this property is worth the trip to check it out. Colorado is the seventh fastest growing state with a 2% increase of residents annually, creating a boom in our recreational economy. Now is the perfect time to invest!
