Description

From the sparkling clear waters of the Skookumchuck River to the alpine meadows of the Northern Rockies this territory has it all. Not only does this scenic area hold many diverse game species, it also has a solid game population. The area boasts a good population of cougar, whitetails & moose. The main lodge is off the beaten path, as well as 2 well maintained outpost camps allowing hunters access to the heart of the range. The lodge is 30 x 40 ft., includes 7 bedrooms & is fully furnished. A spacious open beam area hosts a living room, dining area & bar for guest comfort. A diesel generator, backed up with propane, provides power; water is supplied from a nearby spring. The lodge is strategically located close to game rich areas, 40 minutes from the main road, down a well maintained quad trail. A road could easily be built to hasten access to the lodge, corrals, 5 acre fenced horse field and developed trail system. An old cabin, used mostly for storage, keeps tack safe and dry. 700 yards beyond the fenced pasture, are picturesque waterfalls which could provide water & power all year round with some hydro development. This sale also includes a highly sought and difficult to obtain Recreational License; this allows the holder exclusive rights to operate just about any type of recreational business within the territory. Whether it is kayaking, quading or horse pack trips through the mountains, the possibilities and opportunities are endless. This also allows for the existing tent campsites to be upgraded to cabins for maximum potential in summer usage. There is an airstrip within the territory & the Kimberly airport is conveniently located nearby. British Columbia has always been reputed for its picturesque mountain beauty, abundant wildlife. What an excellent opportunity for an ecotourism business.
