Property Description
540 Main Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established hospitality/RV property in Melrose, Montana, located along the iconic Big Hole River corridor. The Sportsman Lodge includes (8) eight lodge rooms, two (2) onsite rental cabins, management of nine (9) offsite rental cabins, seventeen (17) full-service RV sites, and nine (9) dry camping spaces, creating a well-balanced hospitality footprint that serves anglers, hunters, and outdoor travelers visiting the Big Hole Valley. The property also includes an on-site residence, offering an owner-operator the ability to live on-site or provide additional housing flexibility. Situated just off Interstate 15, the location provides convenient year-round access while maintaining a destination-oriented, rural Montana setting. The Sportsman Lodge operates as a well-established hospitality business supported by multiple complementary revenue streams. In addition to lodging and RV accommodations, the business generates income from on-site coin-operated laundry, merchandise sales, and UTV rentals, adding diversity beyond nightly stays. The current owner has also implemented an upgraded check-in system that allows for no-contact reservations, improving operational efficiency and guest convenience. With limited competing inventory in the immediate area and steady demand driven by outdoor recreation and regional travel, the business and real estate together present a compelling investment opportunity in one of Southwest Montana’s most established recreational corridors.
