Clear Lake Resort & Campground
Business Description
Clear Lake Resort & Campground presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-established recreational property business operating since 1974 in scenic Dalton, Minnesota. Located in Otter Tail County, this turnkey operation sits on 4 prime acres featuring an impressive 560 feet of lakefront on a renowned walleye fishing lake.
The property includes 4 rental cabins and 9+ seasonal campsites, providing multiple revenue streams from both short-term and long-term guests. An office/bar building serves as the operational hub for guest services and potential additional revenue generation. The resort benefits from excellent water access via a 160-foot deep, 6-inch well ensuring reliable water supply.
Key amenities include boats, docks, and various equipment that convey with the sale, providing immediate operational capability for new owners. The strategic location adjacent to 47 acres of public hunting land enhances the property's appeal to outdoor enthusiasts and extends the seasonal attraction beyond traditional summer camping.
The business generates $28,000 in annual revenue with significant potential for growth through enhanced marketing, facility improvements, and expanded services. The lakefront location on a well-known walleye lake positions this property as a destination for fishing enthusiasts and families seeking quality outdoor recreation.

The asking price of $350,000 represents excellent value for prime recreational real estate with an established business operation, offering both immediate income potential and long-term appreciation in one of Minnesota's premier lake regions.
