Incredible opportunity to own 22.85 acres along the famed Copper River in the beautiful community of Chistochina. Located at the northern gateway to Wrangell St Elias National Park, this unique property combines comfortable lodging, proven income potential, and unmatched access to some of Alaska's finest outdoor recreation. The property features a spacious three bedroom home, two guest cabins, and a separate bathhouse, creating an ideal setup for personal use, hosting guests, or continued hospitality operations. There is also a wonderful sauna for unwinding after a day of tending to the property. While the property is currently served by the separate bathhouse, it would be very easy to convert the office in the main home to another bathroom. All of the plumbing is in place in the four-foot crawlspace, and an exhaust fan is already installed. Previously operated as a successful bed and breakfast, this retreat offers endless possibilities for a lodge, guided adventure basecamp, family getaway, or year-round residence. This property also holds excellent deposits of gravel that could be mined for profit. Other properties in the area have utilized their gravel deposits for additional income, and seller states that he found solid gravel at 27 feet below grade. Surrounded by world-class fishing, hunting, hiking, rafting, and wildlife viewing opportunities, the location is a dream destination for outdoor enthusiasts and adventure travelers alike. Best of all - no property taxes! Whether you are seeking an Alaska lifestyle property, an established tourism opportunity, or a private wilderness retreat, this remarkable Copper River property delivers a truly rare offering in one of Alaska's most iconic settings.
