I’ll be putting down $100K, financing $80K per year directly with the owner for two years, then moving into permanent commercial financing.Vision: My plan is to grow revenue to $200K+ by expanding the pontoon fleet, opening a small camp store, and adding some guest experience upgrades (fire pit area, lawn games, cabin amenities).Why I’m posting:I’d love to connect with others who have purchased or are operating resorts, campgrounds, marinas, or short-term rental portfolios.I’m looking for insights on financing, automation tools (property management software, keyless entry, etc.), and off-season revenue ideas.I also want to learn how others balance lifestyle, family, and operations in a seasonal business.This is a big leap for our family, and I’m grateful for the chance to learn from this community.
