Boone's popularity as a recreation and retirement destination grows yearly as more people learn about its cool mountain breezes in the summer and mild, sunny winters. There are many and increasing recreational opportunities (hiking, fishing, golf, whitewater, horseback riding, boating, tubing, and winter sports) sightseeing, shopping (antiques, crafts, fine furniture and art, unique boutiques, clothing and manufacturers outlets), concerts and theaters, museums, and good-to-great local restaurants.
In the three years the lodge functioned as a B&B business revenue tripled. There is ample opportunity to expand business further and increase revenues through more aggressive marketing and PR, strategic pricing and by lengthening the season, adding services, adding rooms, adding cabins, etc. (The B&B operated May to November)
PROXIMITY TO BOONE (seven to ten minutes), easy access from scenic Hwy 194 N. and 9.86 acres give this property GREAT INVESTMENT POTENTIAL.
