Description
This exceptional Iowa property presents a rare opportunity for business investors or developers seeking a turnkey operation with significant growth potential. Surrounded by mature oak, walnut, and hickory trees and featuring a pond, creek, and trail network, the property seamlessly combines natural beauty with robust infrastructure. Its strategic location—just two miles from Highway 30, twenty-five miles to Cedar Rapids, and twenty-nine miles to Iowa City—offers unmatched accessibility while maintaining the peace and privacy of a rural setting. Long operated as a church camp and event facility, the property is fully equipped for immediate use or redevelopment into a destination event venue, campground, retreat center, or educational facility. Existing infrastructure supports numerous income-generating opportunities, including multiple RV hookups with room to expand, six rustic cabins (three recently updated), and a dedicated manager or nurse cabin. The 5,000-square-foot main lodge features a commercial-grade kitchen and extensive entertainment space, making it ideal for weddings, conferences, or group events. In addition, the property includes a hotel-style building offering twelve private bedrooms, each with individual heating and cooling systems, and four ADA-compliant units. The lower level contains two large meeting rooms that can be divided into smaller breakout spaces, along with a full kitchen, bathrooms, a fireplace, and multiple TVs—creating a versatile environment for corporate retreats, training sessions, or large gatherings. For on-site living, a comfortable three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home built in 1970 sits at the front of the property, providing ideal accommodations for an owner-operator or caretaker. With its combination of existing infrastructure, flexible layout, and natural beauty, this property offers investors an exceptional opportunity to capitalize on an event space located between the 2nd and 3rd-largest cities in Iowa. Properties with this level of readiness and potential are seldom available, making this a standout investment opportunity in the region.
