A 23-acre Catskills property with approximately 400 yards of private frontage along the East Branch of the Delaware River, bringing together an established golf and recreational business, food and beverage operations and event capability in a scenic setting. Over more than 25 years of ownership, the current operators have developed a multi-revenue property centered around golf, recreation, food and beverage, and events. The existing operation includes a 9-hole public golf course (par 29, 1,600 yards, designed by Don Josberger), an 18-hole mini-golf course with full night lighting, a 275-yard floodlit driving range with 10 mat stations, a grass hitting area and adjacent practice green, as well as disc golf. At the heart of the property is a gambrel-style clubhouse and established BBQ restaurant, with two elevated decks overlooking the river and surrounding valley. The restaurant supports dine-in service, takeout, and catering, while a full bar with a liquor license complements the operation. The property has hosted events including weddings, tournaments, private gatherings, and community functions, supported by existing infrastructure, ample parking, and easy circulation throughout the site. Additional space within the building offers flexibility for office or administrative use. For a new owner, the opportunity lies in taking an established Catskills recreational and hospitality business and building upon its existing strengths. The combination of golf, mini-golf, driving range, and disc golf creates multiple recreational offerings within a single property, while the restaurant, full bar, outdoor decks, and event capability bring food, beverage, recreation, and hospitality together in one distinctive setting. The location further strengthens the offering. Margaretville and the surrounding area are experiencing a steady evolution, with an emerging mix of food, beverage, and cultural destinations. Within easy reach of Belleayre Mountain and Plattekill, the area attracts a year-round audience drawn by skiing, hiking, fishing, and a growing local scene. For an experienced operator, hospitality group, or investor, this is an opportunity to step into an established platform and shape its next chapter by refining and enhancing the businesses already in place. A 3D Walkthrough Tour is available in the digital Lookbook or by request.

 

The Upstate Lifestyle at 42565 Route 28, Margaretville

One of the most compelling arguments for this property isn't just what's on the land — it's what surrounds it. Belleayre Mountain Ski Center, just 14 miles east in Highmount, is one of the Catskills' most popular four-season resorts, drawing thousands of skiers and outdoor enthusiasts to the region every year — all of whom need somewhere to eat, play, and unwind before or after their visit. Just three miles away, the beloved Delaware & Ulster Railroad in Arkville runs scenic excursion trains through the valley and draws a steady stream of day-trippers and tourists looking to extend their experience with a meal or an activity nearby. A short drive north, Hanah Mountain Resort & Country Club brings a well-heeled clientele into the area for golf and weekend getaways, creating a natural audience for a complementary recreational venue like this one. For those who love the outdoors themselves, Kelly Hollow Trail — one of the most highly rated hiking destinations in Delaware County — sits just five miles south, making this an ideal base for anyone who wants to live and work in a place that feels like a permanent vacation. And then there's Pepacton Reservoir, roughly 15 miles west: one of the largest reservoirs in New York State, renowned for its exceptional fishing and jaw-dropping scenery, drawing anglers and nature lovers from across the Northeast throughout the warmer months. Together, these five destinations paint a picture of a region with genuine, year-round draw — and a property right in the middle of it all, perfectly positioned to capture that traffic.
