Kooskia, Idaho $1,950,000 Description River Dance Lodge presents an exceptional opportunity to own an adventure resort in the heart of Idaho’s spectacular Clearwater River country. Combining rustic luxury cabin accommodations, a fully equipped commercial restaurant and gift shop, and valuable outfitter permits for rafting, hiking, and mountain biking.

This unique property offers multiple revenue streams in one of the Northwest’s premier outdoor recreation destinations. Located near the banks of the Middle Fork of the Clearwater River and surrounded by the forested Bitterroot Mountains, the resort features six handcrafted log buildings that create eight private luxury cabin units.

Built in 2005 from premium hand-peeled, dead-standing lodgepole pine logs, the cabins showcase remarkable craftsmanship and timeless mountain character. Each cabin includes a private hot tub, quality furnishings, a gas fireplace, and inviting outdoor living space. The resort offers four individual cabins and two larger twin cabins, providing a total of 20 bedrooms and 16 bathrooms. The smaller cabins comfortably accommodate families or couples, while the spacious twin cabins are ideal for larger groups, reunions, and adventure travelers. The cabins are fully furnished and equipped.

The property’s commercial lodge includes a restaurant that seats approximately 48 guests, a gift shop area, and a fully equipped commercial kitchen featuring professional- grade appliances, walk-in refrigeration and freezer units, commercial cooking equipment, and a complete fire suppression system. Included outbuildings include a gear storage building, office with sleeping loft, laundry facilities, shower house, changing rooms, accessible restroom, and maintenance building.

What truly sets River Dance Lodge apart is the included commercial recreation business. The sale includes the permits and equipment for guided rafting trips on three of Idaho’s most renowned rivers. The highly coveted Lochsa River permit includes 925 priority service days with unlimited launches and exclusive reserved riverside camps for overnight adventures. Additional permits cover the Clearwater River, offering rafting, kayaking, canoeing, tubing, and float fishing opportunities, as well as the scenic Lower Selway River for guided rafting and fishing excursions. The business also has permits for guided hiking and mountain biking adventures on nearby trails, allowing owners to expand recreational offerings and attract visitors throughout the season.

Guests enjoy immediate access to world-class outdoor recreation including whitewater rafting, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, hunting, scenic drives, wildlife viewing, and stargazing.

Located at approximately 1,400 feet in elevation, the area offers warm summers, relatively mild winters, and an extended tourism season. Commercial airports in Spokane, Lewiston, and Missoula provide convenient access for travelers from throughout the Northwest. Whether your vision is to operate a thriving adventure tourism business, expand an existing outfitting company, or own a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat with established income, River Dance Lodge offers an extraordinary combination of hospitality, recreation, and investment potential.
