Welcome to Hayes E. Daze Ranch! This is the only riding stable with an outfitters license in the Kisatchie National Forest. This enables the owners of the business to charge a fee to offer guided horseback riding, guided remote camping & cooking trips and guided hunting trips for its guests. The Ranch has been in business for 12 years and offers guided horseback riding on almost 300 miles of trails meandering across over 2, 6000 acres of national forest. The lodge is equipped with a large kitchen (which includes 2 ovens, numerous workstations, 3 sinks and a large walk-in pantry. The lodge also boasts 2 primary bedrooms (which could easily become bunk rooms) each with its own en suite, and a loft which can also be converted to sleeping space. Most of the beautiful wood inside the home was milled from the trees when the property was originally cleared. The many paddocks and round pens are available for your horses or guests can choose from the 8 horses that live on the ranch. The hay barn with 6 stalls and the heated/cooled tack room, feed room, and quarantine pen will make your animals feel like they are at home. The party pavilion offers a great outside experience for reminiscing over food and spirits after a full day of trail riding through the forest. The new owner has more room to expand as there is plenty room for more cabins and RV hookups. The National forest adjoins the property on the west and is just across the road offering over 5, 000 acres of public hunting just right out of the front door of the lodge. Kisatchie National Forest is a huge draw for horseback riders looking for milder conditions to live where harsh winters are unbearable in the northern United States. If you are looking to capitalize on a unique existing business/investment this is your opportunity. The owners currently only offer guided horseback tours, so the potential for expansion of offerings is tremendous thanks to the outfitters license. There is also the potential to purchase additional property adjacent to and across the street which already has RV spots in place. (This would be negotiated separately.) All measurements are m/l.
