About 173 S Gunnison Avenue
Nestled in the breathtaking San Juan Mountains, this well-established, multi-use property offers a rare opportunity to own a thriving business with deep community roots. Situated on 0.95 acres just minutes from historic downtown Lake City and the scenic Lake Fork of the Gunnison River, this unique property blends lifestyle and income potential in one exceptional package. At its core is a popular restaurant known for its mouthwatering BBQ and classic hamburgers.
