There is nothing else like it on the market right now. A fully operating, all-inclusive guided-fishing and eco-tourism resort on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island - 16.15 acres fronting Hecate Cove in Quatsino Sound, with a deep-water dock at the door and some of the best saltwater fishing in BC. THE MOAT: zoned Commercial General (CG-1) - one of only four CG-1 parcels in Quatsino and the largest of them. Current lot coverage is 10.9% against a 50% permitted maximum. Permitted uses run well beyond the lodge: cabins and campground, restaurant, cafe or pub, retail, commercial recreation. Access by boat or floatplane only is a real barrier to entry. THE LODGE: 12,244 sq ft. A 1970s residence wing joined to a 2011-2014 two-storey addition. Ten purpose-built guest rooms, typical 11.5 x 32 ft, most with private balconies - including a large self-contained master suite with its own living room, dining area and kitchen. Separate staff quarters with their own kitchen, laundry and bathroom: staff housing already solved, which on the North Island is the constraint that stops most operators. Guest side: dining room, lounge with fireplace, bar, karaoke stage, lodge office. 3,535 sq ft of decks and hot tub over the cove. INFRASTRUCTURE: 2,365 sq ft floating dock with 200 ft ramp, workshop, walk-in cooler shelter, 600-amp service, well, septic, wood-fired boiler feeding in-floor radiant heat, 10,000 gal cistern, internet and cellular. THE BUSINESS: established seasonal operation, revenue history 2022-2024, strong repeat-guest reputation. All-inclusive packages cover boat transfer from Coal Harbour, all meals, fully guided fishing, fish processing, kayaks and paddleboards; nightly stays, day charters and eco-tours run alongside. Salmon, halibut, ling cod and rock cod within a short run; hiking to Colony Lake and kayaking at the door. Turnkey. The machine is already running. (id:27476)
