Hello Everyone
My wife and I are currently looking at purchasing an existing "resort" in Michigan. Its on a lake and has several boats to rent and cabins with a kitchen. We are thinking of purchasing Jet-Ski's, Snowmobiles and ATV's for rentals. We would provide guided trail rides for the ATV's and if asked may do the same for the snowmobiles. I would like to get an indication of what it takes to have an extremely good resort. What do you look for before you decide to vacation somewhere ? You can of course respond here or you may if you wish email us directly at Wayne |

you must have a lot of capitol to buy the place and then invest
thousands of dollars on jet Ski's etc. I would think you would be better off talking to a place that already does the rentals and having them supply your resort with the equipment. Then you don't need a mechanic on site to do maintenance have to store them during the off season or worry about insurance and liability so much! I look for a place that has what I am looking for in a vacation if it is by a lake fishing of all types would be important along with lessons and boats. Canoes paddle boats horseback riding. Outdoor cookout kids programs for other people things like cell phone service or wireless Internet access are nice. Adult evening activities depending upon the size of the resort can vary quite a bit. It is important to have a quality web site that provides information people want pictures of the rooms and the resort sample menus activities pricing cancellation policies etc.. Since you are in Michigan you may want to go to a couple of resorts for a short vacation at places that will be your competitors and see how they do things!
