The Alaskan Package

$500,000USD/gold/silver/combo/trade

Here is an opportunity that may not be for everyone but will appeal to the individual seeking a place in Alaska. Not only Alaska, but Haines Alaska!!!

Here is the deal.

Bear Creek Cabins is a property that includes a business and a home on approx. 1.25 acres. The business is:

  • Summer cabin rentals on a daily/weekly basis
  • Two of 8 cabins are used as a hostel
  • The home is a 1 bedroom 1 bath cabin approx 24x40 with an 8 ft wide porch on two sides and an attic. It is a year-round residence or can be winterized and used for the spring summer and fall months or used as a year round rental or managers accommodation. It has oil and wood heat and gas stove and has an on-demand gas water heater.
  • This is a great little summer business.
  • Low overhead and few hours actually worked.
  • Currently open May - mid October.
  • Property is located on a plowed state road. This is important in the winter.

In addition to the business, home and 8 rental cabins there is also a bath house that has the camp showers and restrooms, a separate kitchen facility for use by the guests.

In addition to this is a new (summer 2008) 30x30 shop with 12ft eaves and an 8ftx30ft storage loft.

That is not all! It also comes with a 32ft Uniflite cabin cruiser that can be used as a pleasure vessel or would make a great charter boat. Wait, there is more! Included is a 1964 Piper Cherokee airplane with current annual. This is a low-hour plane that is well suited to this area.

You will need a van to pick people up from the ferry and airport so you also get a 1993 Ford Aerostar that runs and looks great. Since this is a 2wd vehicle you will also need a 4wd for the winter and guess what, I am including a 1989 Ford F150 that is in super shape and has less than 90k miles on it. All you have to do is move in.

This business has been on going since the 1980's. It has had its ups and downs and is currently on an up. It is better to have a retirement or second income as this is currently a 6 month out of the year business. This is a great place for someone who has maintenance skills, and customer service skills. You will meet people from all over the world and become friends with our neighbors to the North in the Yukon who return for long weekends to fish and visit.

You might as well make money while living in Haines, a most beautiful place.

Call or email with your questions. I will work with you in transition.
