Selling our Home/Business on the Yukon River. If you're looking for a change of pace and a chance to experience the true Alaska, then this may be of interest to you. I arrived at the land 6/2/06 with a boat load of tools, set up camp, and started working. The barge dropped off more tools, a woodmizer sawmill, and fuel a few days later. Now, 15 years later we have a healthy business and beautiful home. Recently some life challenges have cropped up and we're needing to change our situation and be closer to services. Thanks for looking!

Hopefully the link works.

Edit to add: Getting some calls and texts from our customers. Yes, as long as we own the lodge all of our services will remain in operation. We are planning to take fall fuel orders as usual and look forward to seeing all of you this fall. Thanks for the continued business and support!

Thanks guys. Appreciate the well wishes. I'm going to continue to live here full-time and run the business so the new owner/s can step in and continue. It would also be a good situation for someone who works from home and doesn't want to continue with the business end.

Maybe I missed it but... what's the business you're in? Looks wonderful!

We currently offer fuel and lodging to folks and commercial entities traveling and working in the area. We offer unleaded at the river for boats (huge during moose season) as well as for snowmachers during the winter. The bulk of our summer business is now helicopter fueling and housing their crews. We have both 100-LL (avgas) and Jet-A. In the past we did fishing and site seeing guided trips as well. Covid stopped that for the time being, but we actually do better with the helicopters. I still do boat charters for people needing to get places, and it would be easy to reestablish the fishing and sight seeing in the Nowitna refuge if someone chose to.

Just to lend a little perspective for you. $200 per sqft isnt an unreasonable valuation of a residential home in an Alaskan town. That would put the lodge itself in the $850k realm. Building in the Bush is much more costly and difficult. That doesn't even take into consideration all the rest of the structures, equipment, infrastructure, 80 acres with 1/2 mile of shore frontage, and business earnings. It's actually a reasonable asking price.
