The iconic Swallow Inn, situated in the Heart of Rapid River, is now available to be your new business endeavor! This building originally started out as a boarding house and has been a running business for over 100 years. You've likely seen the Swallow Inn featured as "Best Fish Fry in the U.P.", named by public vote & the Daily Press! Or maybe you've seen it in clips of the movie "Escanaba in da Moonlight", or perhaps on Yooper Paranormal! How about their record selling Keno ticket winner that was close to $500,000? Or perhaps you've just heard about their one-of-a-kind salad bar, and down-right good food! Either way, iconic only begins to describe this historic building. With a full bar, dining area, kitchen, & public bathrooms, this could be an almost turn-key business operation. Stock will be included along with tables, stools, chairs, etc (with the exception of liquor), and the current owner is happy to help with the transition to the new owner. Currently has a Class C Liquor license & Michigan Lottery Retailer license. There are apartments upstairs that could be remodeled for on-site living or additional income opportunity. Land Contract available to qualified buyers. Come see the Swallow Inn - To Old Friends & New Ones!
