KEBLER CORNER — ESTABLISHED COLORADO RV RESORT AND CABIN BUSINESS The approximately 25-acre Kebler Corner resort includes 11 vacation rental cabins, 22 full-hookup RV sites, 10 electric-only RV sites and 16 tent/van sites, along with a liquor store and gift shop, maintenance and operational facilities, modern utilities, high-speed internet and a commercial water purification system. The property also benefits from adjudicated water rights and approximately 1,300 feet of Anthracite River frontage. THE RIVER HOUSE — PRIVATE COLORADO RIVERFRONT ESTATE The adjoining approximately 146-acre River House property features an approximately 8,637-square-foot custom lodge with 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, a separate guest log cabin, a 1-bedroom caretaker apartment, approximately 1,200 feet of Anthracite River frontage and a private pond. National Forest borders three sides of the River House property, creating an extraordinary private setting with direct access to an expansive surrounding landscape. Approximately 1,200 feet of the Anthracite River runs through the property, with ownership on both sides of the river along the frontage. The River House has never been operated or marketed as a commercial hospitality property, leaving significant potential for future use as a private retreat, corporate or executive retreat, destination wedding venue, exclusive-use event property or luxury vacation retreat.. Together, the properties offer approximately 2,500 feet of Anthracite River frontage, substantial existing infrastructure, lodging, water systems, recreational amenities and an exceptional location along Colorado Highway 133. RENOVATED HOSPITALITY PLATFORM WITH GROWTH POTENTIAL The investment opportunity extends well beyond the current operating history. Current ownership has spent years renovating and modernizing the resort, rebuilding infrastructure, improving water systems, cabins, sites and utilities, and completing the work necessary to bring the property to full-scale operation. The resort has only recently reached that level of operation and is just beginning focused marketing. For an investor or operator, much of the difficult, expensive and time-consuming work required to create a property of this scale is already in place. The opportunity is to capitalize on the existing platform through professional marketing, revenue management, increased occupancy, premium peak-season pricing, expanded group business and potential activation of the River House, rather than starting from the ground up. WESTERN COLORADO LOCATION AND VISITOR ATTRACTIONS Location is a major demand driver. The property sits within one of western Colorado's most compelling recreational corridors, with access to destinations and attractions that draw visitors throughout the region. Crested Butte is approximately 31 miles away via scenic Kebler Pass, while McClure Pass provides access to Marble, Redstone, Carbondale, Aspen and Glenwood Springs. Nearby Paonia Reservoir and Paonia State Park provide boating, fishing, paddle sports and other water-based recreation. The West Elk Loop Scenic Byway connects many of the area's most popular mountain destinations, while the surrounding public lands and mountain communities provide extensive opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, hunting, wildlife viewing, fishing, snowmobiling and other four-season recreation. A DIFFICULT-TO-REPLICATE COLORADO PROPERTY This combination of established hospitality infrastructure, substantial river frontage, National Forest adjacency, extensive recreational opportunities and proximity to major Colorado mountain attractions creates a property that is difficult to replicate. This is an opportunity to acquire not simply an operating RV and cabin resort, but a completed hospitality platform with substantial underlying real estate, an extraordinary adjoining private estate and significant potential for future growth.
