The sale includes a Special Use Permit to operate on the AuSable River, with 13 years remaining on a 20-year lease.
The resort sits on 4.5 acres of leased National Forest land. The permit provides exclusive rights for established river-based recreational services, including cabin rentals and equipment rentals. Lease costs are described as $300 per year plus 5% of proceeds. There is also a 7-year lease related to Rifle River State Park, with an annual lease payment of 10% of gross revenues.
This offering is structured for a buyer who intends to continue the outfitter and rental operations under the existing river permit and related lease arrangements.

Financials are available with proof of funds and a signed NDA, and the sale is cash-only.
