1222 N US-23 presents an opportunity to acquire a restaurant and commercial property in East Tawas, a well-established Lake Huron destination known for its waterfront amenities, tourism activity, and year-round recreational appeal. Positioned along the US-23 corridor, the property benefits from high visibility, convenient regional access, and proximity to marinas, beaches, parks, lodging establishments, and other attractions that support both local and visitor traffic.
The property is currently configured for restaurant operations and has historically operated under the Big Boy and Northwoods restaurant concepts. Existing infrastructure supports continued food service use and includes a liquor license, providing flexibility for future ownership. The building's layout and improvements also offer potential for hospitality, entertainment, event, or other commercial uses permitted under the property's mixed-use zoning designation.
Situated on an expansive site, the property offers substantial parking capacity, outdoor activity areas, and future redevelopment potential subject to applicable approvals. Its location within one of Michigan's recognized lakeside communities provides access to a steady mix of seasonal visitors, second-home owners, and local residents. East Tawas serves as a gateway to the Sunrise Coast region, attracting boating, fishing, outdoor recreation, and tourism activity throughout the year.
The combination of an established commercial presence, adaptable building configuration, mixed-use zoning, and a highly visible location along a major transportation corridor creates an opportunity for owner-users, hospitality operators, and investors seeking a commercial asset in a destination-oriented market with multiple avenues for future use and repositioning.
