Historic Columbia Gorge Landmark | Mixed-Use Investment Opportunity
Offered at $1,350,000
Nestled along the scenic Columbia River Gorge on State Route 14, the Skamania General Store has long served as a cornerstone of the local community, welcoming residents, outdoor enthusiasts, and travelers exploring one of Washington's most picturesque destinations. More than simply a convenience store, this unique offering combines an established business, multiple revenue opportunities, and exceptional owner-user potential in a setting that is difficult to replicate.
The property features a beautifully renovated three-bedroom residence located directly above the store. Whether utilized as an owner's residence or leased as a rental, the upstairs living quarters offer tremendous flexibility and the potential to generate additional income for the new owner.
Adding to the property's versatility is a fully equipped commercial kitchen and diner, formerly operated as the well-known Beacon Rock Cafe. While the cafe is not currently in operation, the space provides an outstanding opportunity for a new owner to reopen a restaurant, establish a café, expand the existing retail operation, or lease the space to another operator, creating yet another potential source of income.
Situated on approximately 1.55 acres, the property offers far more than its existing improvements. The expansive site presents an excellent opportunity for future commercial expansion or additional commercial opportunities, allowing a new owner to further maximize the property's long-term potential, subject to buyer verification of zoning and local approvals. Opportunities combining an established business with excess land and future upside are increasingly rare throughout the Columbia River Gorge.
Ideally located just minutes from Stevenson, Beacon Rock State Park, the Bridge of the Gods, and countless hiking trails, campgrounds, fishing destinations, and Columbia River recreation, the store enjoys consistent traffic from both local residents and the thousands of visitors who travel through the Gorge each year. The surrounding area has become one of the Pacific Northwest's premier destinations for hiking, boating, fishing, windsurfing, and scenic tourism, providing a steady customer base throughout every season.
For generations, the Skamania General Store has remained an important part of the community, serving as a trusted destination for both locals and visitors alike. Today, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established business with multiple potential income streams, residential living, additional commercial opportunities, and meaningful future upside in one of Washington's most scenic and recognizable locations.
Whether you're seeking a lifestyle business, a family-operated enterprise, or an investment with immediate income and long-term growth potential, the Skamania General Store offers an opportunity that is seldom available in the Columbia River Gorge.
