If you don't know, you should, this is in the No. 1 snowmobile area in the state! You start in early November and quit the end of April and the riding; Well, it is nothing less than Superb!! Miles and miles of rolling terrain, but You pick the level of expertise. Be it trails, deep powder or maybe just a hill climb, it is all there and then some.

The snow level in this area is usually from 5' to 10' on the ground. And you know, that is a lot of snow! While you are out at the lodge you will be greeted by one of the most stunning views you have ever seen. No surprise, as you look at the mighty Mt. McKinley from only a 1,000' elevation. No mountain in the world can be viewed like that, where you look just about 4 miles up in the air to see the very top from where you stand.

Well, enough said about that. The property itself, naturally takes in the vista of the surrounding areas. No wonder people like to stay there, the place is as clean as it can be and the owners, Bob & Sylvia, are delightful hosts complimenting the locale.

Yes, it is just a small family operation and the owners live there on a year round basis, but what an opportunity for a younger, like minded couple to live in a beautiful place and make some extra income. One could net around $30K to $40K a year with some work and commitment to the business during the winter season.

The owners take off in the summer to travel, while you as the new owner may well be able to attract equal business in the summer time. The facilities are there and The Mountain so many people want to photograph will be there too, with weather and a view better than one will have taking a lengthy bus tour way back in the Park. You have to see for yourself and you will agree.

Access in the winter time will be by snowmobile and in the summer time it is about a 2½ mile trip by ATV north of the Petersville Road.

The Facility itself consists of the main building, apr. 2,000 sq. ft. (1,000 on each level). There are 5 guest bedrooms upstairs, plus a master bedroom with its own bath. In addition, there is another guest bathroom, plus two more guest bathrooms downstairs.

The Kitchen is well appointed with all the modern conveniences one expects. There is a large living area with satellite television (Internet would be available), telephone/fax and tables to accommodate up to 40 people. Keep in mind, the lodge is serving food, from breakfast to dinner and to top it all off, they have a full Beer and Wine license to quench your thirst.

The lodge is heated primarily by a big wood stove and each room has supplemental heat for a cold day. The 3 cozy cabins each sleep 6 comfortably and rent each cabin for only $110.- per day. While the rooms in the lodge are $65.- per day and sleep 2 to 3 people.

A separate shower house has 3 toilets and 2 showers for the cabin guests. In the back of the shower house is where you will find the two Northern Lights diesel generators, one 16kw, one 10kw, filters and pressure tanks for the water system (well), which is fully DEC approved. The same holds true for the septic system.

The large 24' x 24'cold storage shed houses all the toys you need for the operation. Which includes; a Polaris 6 wheeler, a Ski Doo Super Wide Track snowmobile, plus the real work horse, a Nodwell, which is a large track rig used to haul in all the fuel, gas and propane (the lodge sells gas to snowmobilers).

As one can imagine this is a lot of work for two people, but well worth the effort to spend time in paradise. Great for a retired couple too young to call it quits.

The price for all of this is only $425,000.- with no extra charge for a Million Dollar View and all the Wildlife. In many places you could not even buy a house for this price. Just look at all you get and you will agree.
