EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This well-established business is a unique opportunity with deep roots in the community. Spanning 0.95 acres, it includes a restaurant, gas station and convenience store, bar, and onsite living quarters, all located in the picturesque San Juan Mountains. Just minutes from historic downtown Lake City and the scenic Lake Fork of the Gunnison River.
At the heart of the establishment is the restaurant, which specializes in mouthwatering BBQ dishes and hamburgers. It features a recently upgraded commercial kitchen and a welcoming atmosphere that draws in both locals and tourists. Attached to the restaurant is a convenience store, where customers can grab snacks, fuel, and even lottery tickets, making it a convenient stop for travelers.
The Ol’53 Bar adds a distinctive charm to the business. Its centerpiece—a vintage 53 Dodge tow truck—enhances the rustic vibe and stages the local music talent, while the beautifully crafted 24-foot wooden bar offers a cozy space for patrons to unwind. The bar includes a game room, office, and storage, and in the summer, garage doors open to let in the fresh mountain air, allowing guests to enjoy the outdoors. Outdoor seating arrangements encourage customers to relax by fire pits and engage in games like corn hole, creating a vibrant community atmosphere.
The business is well-loved by locals and visitors alike, making it a cherished part of the community. Its prime location and established reputation offer numerous opportunities for growth, allowing new owners to enhance its offerings and tap into the events market. This venture not only provides a chance to run a thriving business but also to embrace the dream of mountain living in a stunning setting.
