Set in the heart of the Hayward area's recreation country, this 5-acre commercial property presents an exciting opportunity for entrepreneurs, investors, or anyone looking to establish a business in a location known for boating, fishing, and seasonal tourism. Just minutes from Nelson Lake and downtown Hayward, the property has long been a destination for bait, fishing supplies, and seasonal pontoon rentals, earning years of recognition from both locals and visitors. The existing building offers retail space with a separate office/kitchenette area, while the property's generous acreage, commercial zoning, and ample parking create opportunities for future growth. Whether you choose to continue the current operation, expand the services offered, or develop an entirely new commercial concept, the location provides outstanding exposure and flexibility. The seller is currently working to obtain a beer and liquor license, creating another potential opportunity for future operations. Inventory and pontoon rentals are available for purchase separately but are not included in the sale. Commercial properties with five acres, excellent visibility, and a long-standing presence in one of the Hayward area's busiest recreation corridors are difficult to find. Bring your ideas and make the most of this unique Northwoods opportunity. Buyer may choose to purchase the additional 11.73 acres for an extra $65,000.
