OVERVIEW

Prime Investment Properties is pleased to present the Loyal Duke Lodge, a 50-room, recently renovated, independent, midscale hotel ideally positioned in the heart of Salida, one of Colorado's premier year-round mountain-town destinations. Situated on a 1.26-acre lot along high-traffic West Rainbow Boulevard, this midscale property offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a turnkey, professionally managed asset in a supply-constrained submarket with proven demand and rising fundamentals. Originally built in 1968 and comprehensively renovated in 2020, the Loyal Duke Lodge blends rustic mountain character with modern guest-facing improvements. The three-story, 38,250-square-foot property delivers a compelling amenity package rarely found at this scale, including an indoor pool, an outdoor hot tub, complimentary breakfast, a business center, public-access WiFi, and a thoughtfully designed mix of room types ranging from efficient queen rooms to family suites with mountain views. Pet-friendly accommodations and a BBQ patio further broaden the property's appeal across leisure, family, and group travel segments. Ample surface parking (60 spaces) and an exterior-corridor layout support efficient operations and guest convenience. The lodge's location is its strongest asset. Salida is cradled between the Arkansas River and the Rocky Mountains, drawing visitors year-round for whitewater rafting and tubing along the Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area, skiing at nearby Monarch Mountain, mountain biking, wildflower hiking, and access to Browns Canyon National Monument and Great Sand Dunes National Park. The town's walkable historic downtown, vibrant arts scene, hot springs, and signature events such as FIBArk generate consistent, diversified demand across all four seasons. The property sits minutes from downtown and benefits from strong visibility on a corridor carrying more than 10,000 vehicles per day. Market fundamentals in the Colorado Southwest submarket continue to strengthen. Occupied room demand grew 1.5% year-over-year, outpacing modest supply growth of just 0.2%, with zero new rooms delivered in the trailing twelve months, underscoring meaningful barriers to new supply. Submarket occupancy stands at 58.3% with RevPAR of $75.61, providing a stable operating base with clear upside for a hands-on owner or experienced operator. Surrounding demographics reinforce the area's health, with median household income of $83,244 within one mile and projected population and household growth of roughly 3.5%–5% through 2030. The Loyal Duke Lodge presents as a true turnkey acquisition with an established brand identity, a modern direct-booking website, and a loyal customer base already in place. Whether held as a passive, professionally managed investment or repositioned by an owner-operator seeking to capture additional rate and occupancy, the Loyal Duke Lodge offers a rare combination of recent capital investment, irreplaceable location, and durable year-round demand in one of Colorado's most beloved mountain communities.
