About the Business
Year Established:1908
Employees:8 full time - 10 part time
Facilities:Acclaimed as one of the “Last Perfect Places in Colorado” by one of Denver's Premier Magazines, this spectacular historic site has attracted guests since 1900. Situated at 8,300 feet at the entrance to a Top 10 national park, the 13 acre site includes pine forest, aspen groves, wild flow meadows, abundant wild life, and one of the top wild trout streams in the U.S. Immediate access to trailheads, waterfalls, lakes, game trails, horse paths and vast recreational activities have attracted generations of repeat customers, and promise a new owner a lifestyle of blissful balance. This seemingly secluded mountain retreat is only a short distance from Denver, Boulder, and other major metropolitan areas. Classic Rocky Mountain charm best describes the facilities. Wood and stone craftsmanship create an air of casual elegance. The 12,000 sq.ft. 3-story main building includes wrap-around decks with spectacular views, 2 large banquet rooms, 2 bars, 6 guest rooms (including a master suite), a main kitchen, a satellite kitchen, a bridal changing room, and a children’s activity room. Picturesque outdoor facilities on the property include a natural amphitheater atop a rushing stream, a meadow wedding site carpeted in wild flowers, and a stable/outfitter.
Market Outlook and Competition:The business enjoys a strong competitive position, as evidenced by years of international recognition, current #1 ranking in Colorado, and consistently highest bookings relative to its competitors. Sustainable advantages and barriers to entry include 100 years of returning guests and word-of-mouth, a one-of-a-kind and extremely advantageous location, and a unique property exceptionally well suited for events.

Seller is available as needed to ensure the new owner's success and get quickly up to speed so they can start enjoying the business and area.
