Support & Training
The business is supported by a dedicated team of 22 employees, allowing the current owner to maintain a highly desirable part-time schedule. Due to the area's favorable seasonal dynamics, the restaurant currently operates eight months out of the year (March through November). This schedule offers an incoming owner a lucrative, high-energy operational season balanced by a built-in four-month off-season, providing an exceptional work-life balance and unique lifestyle flexibility.
Growth Opportunities
While highly profitable under the current eight-month model, substantial upside exists for an ambitious buyer. A new owner could easily capture additional market share and increase annual revenue by extending operating hours year-round, or by opening exclusively on weekends during the traditional four-month winter closing. The restaurant's premier location ensures sustained interest, which will be further enhanced by upcoming municipal developments and nearby city projects
