Gateway to Steens Wilderness: Steens Mountain Wilderness Resort offers a rare investment opportunity in one of the Pacific Northwest's most unique scenic landscapes. Located just outside Frenchglen, Oregon, this immaculately maintained 15.79-acre property serves as the primary "Gateway to the Steens". Bordering the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and surrounded by vast public lands, the resort is a major hub for travelers, hunters, and anglers seeking a basecamp for adventure. With a high level of operational efficiency, the business yields roughly 14.75% return on investment and benefits from nearly zero advertising fees, relying on a loyal base of frequent customers who return year in and year out. This profitable venture is uniquely structured for a balanced lifestyle, operating only eight months out of the year. This seasonal schedule provides the owner with a whopping four-month off-season, offering the perfect opportunity to snowbird while the property is winterized. Guest accommodations are diverse and in high demand, featuring 10 total cabins, including seven units equipped with kitchenettes, air conditioning, and bathrooms . Among these is 'The Homestead,' a premium 924-square-foot, two-bedroom residence featuring private laundry, a heat pump, and a covered porch overlooking the refuge. For RV travelers, the park provides 32 full-hookup sites, including both 30 and 50-amp options, along with 12 additional tent sites. Every site is cleanly numbered and most are furnished with its own picnic table and fire pit, reflecting the substantial pride of ownership found throughout the park. Operational infrastructure is equally robust, including a spacious office building with a retail store, guest laundry, and showers . A maintenance shop includes storage for tools and equipment along with pull through garage doors while featuring a "man cave" with epoxy flooring and AC, providing an organized space for any project. Recreational opportunities just outside the boundary are endless, from exploring the 66-mile Steens Mountain Loop Road to fly fishing for native Redband trout. Guests enjoy nearly 15 hours of summer daylight for hiking glacial gorges or spotting wild horses and bighorn sheep. After dark, the region offers some of the most spectacular stargazing in the country under true dark skies. In addition to the 15.79+/- acre resort, the owners are also willing to part ways with their 2,996-square-foot custom residence that is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom setup situated on its own private 1 acre tax lot. The home was built in 1998 and would make an exceptional spot as an Airbnb, house employees, or be continued to be utilized as a primary residence as it currently is. The Sellers are willing to combine the two acreages for $1,800,000 for any interested buyers. Steens Mountain Wilderness Resort represents an exceptional turnkey investment, offering a consistent +14% return on investment with a loyal, repeat customer base and a flexible eight-month seasonal schedule that allows for a dedicated four-month snowbird lifestyle in the heart of Oregon's most breathtaking high-desert recreation. This is not just an investment; it is a gateway to an unforgettable high-desert lifestyle that pairs strong financial performance with the freedom to explore.
