Property Overview
Imagine owning a piece of history and prosperity in the heart of Lake City, Colorado—a town renowned for its stunning landscapes and vibrant outdoor recreation. For over 65 years, Lake City Auto has been a cornerstone of this community, evolving from a humble gas station into a thriving recreational vehicle sales, service, and rental enterprise.
What sets Lake City Auto apart is not just its longevity, but its unwavering reputation for excellence and growth. Under the stewardship of its current owner, the business has seen remarkable expansion, with revenues soaring from $400,000 to $4,000,000+ over the past 26 years. This steady ascent reflects not only market demand but also the business's adeptness at meeting the needs of both locals and tourists alike.
Located prominently along State Highway 149, Lake City Auto enjoys unparalleled visibility and accessibility, backed by breathtaking views of Lake Fork of the Gunnison River. Its expansive 3,952 square foot facility includes everything needed for a seamless operation—a retail shop, showroom, office space, two large garage bays, and ample storage. Outdoor amenities such as gas pumps, fuel storage tanks, and a propane fill station further enhance its convenience and service offerings.
What truly makes Lake City Auto a gem in Colorado's business landscape is its diversified revenue streams. Beyond traditional auto services, the business proudly franchises Polaris ATV, UTV, and snowmobile products, as well as Triton and Polaris aluminum trailers. It's also home to the region's largest UTV rental company, San Juan Adventures, and boasts a thriving jeep rental service with a loyal customer base spanning decades. Lake City Auto also has a productive snowmobile rental business.
Moreover, Lake City Auto holds coveted federal outfitter's permits for snowmobile guided/unguided tours and BLM tour permits for guided excursions on the Alpine Loop—an exclusive advantage that not only boosts revenue but also solidifies its position as a premier destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
The potential for growth here is undeniable. With Lake City's reputation as a mecca for outdoor recreation—offering hundreds of 4x4 trails and 150± miles of groomed snowmobile trails—Lake City Auto is poised to capitalize on the burgeoning market of off-road vehicles, snowmobiles, and adventure tourism.
