At the western base of Monarch Pass, Tomichi Creek Trading Post offers a distinctive opportunity to acquire an established Sargents business with three complementary income streams: fuel and convenience retail, campground and lodging, and Tomichi Creek Bar & Grill.
Its US Highway 50 location serves travelers, locals, and outdoor recreation customers throughout the year. The gas station provides gasoline, ethanol free fuel, diesel, propane, and EV charging. The convenience store carries groceries, beverages, snacks, ice cream, Hunt Brothers Pizza, gifts, and outdoor essentials.
CDOT reported approximately 2,600 vehicles per day on the Sargents corridor in 2024. The lodging operation includes 20 full hookup RV sites with 30/50 amp service, eight cabins, three business owned campers for guest rentals or employee housing, creekside tent camping, and a spacious lodge for larger groups or onsite owner living.
An established website and Campspot system support reservations, with restrooms, showers, laundry, and picnic areas for guests. Tomichi Creek Bar & Grill adds a food and beverage income stream, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner with locally sourced burgers, house smoked BBQ, elk specialties, American favorites, and a full bar.
A commercial kitchen, indoor dining, and patio seating support restaurant operations. Recreation fuels demand across the business. Ride in, ride out access connects customers to ATV, UTV, dirt bike, and snowmobile trails near Marshall Pass. The Great Divide Mountain Bike Route, Monarch Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail attract cyclists and hikers, while nearby GMU 551 draws hunters to the area.
While Monarch Mountain Ski Area, approximately 12 miles away, adds winter visitors. Between Gunnison and Salida, with Crested Butte within reach, the Trading Post is positioned to serve multiple customer groups in every season. Private showings by appointment only. NDA and proof of funds required prior to scheduling.
