| Overview: |
The raw beauty, the best public golf course in Canada, Highlands National Park, whales, skiing and snow-mobiling in the winter, gorgeous colours in the Fall - this community and tourist destination has it all, and this business is right in the middle. The property has been built up over nineteen years to offer the most comfortable and attractive, well priced tourist facilities that careful, balanced management can provide. Both housekeeping and motel style rooms that include a total of 27 beds are attractively spaced for privacy and comfort around 6.43 acres facing the sea.

| Comments: |
This property is comprised of 6.43 acres, 8 cottages, 4 chalets, 1 mini-home, 1 6-unit motel, an office building with laundry and other utilities plus an on site 5 bedroom house with pool. The owners presently do not live on the premises and have the 5-bedroom home rented.
Thus far, the property has been run as a warm-weather resort but that could change. Since the buildings are insulated, this is a business that could be open for a much longer season given the growth of skiing at Cape Smokey and snowmobiling on the many area trails. As it is, however, the occupancy rate exceeds 90% in peak season and averages better than 70% for the entire warm-weather season.
One interesting aspect to this business is not apparent at a glance - it has the advantage of having a panoramic, unobstructed view of the ocean, Ingonish island and Cape Smokey as well as beach access very close by without the burden of beach front property taxes. The shore is directly across the road and the beach is right there with no room for any building on the ocean side of the road. Guests at the resort just cross the road and walk down a short path to the water's edge. As summer progresses, more and more sand builds up to form a very respectable beach that is open to the public.
