    Step into a piece of Upper Peninsula history with the iconic Helmer House Inn, a landmark dating back to 1881. Situated on the sandy shores of Big Manistique Lake, with Helmer Creek winding through the 2.49 acre property and a private pond, this one-of-a-kind waterfront destination offers an incredible opportunity to own an established hospitality business with multiple income streams. Currently operating as a successful bed & breakfast, café, and bakery, with a mercantile shop ready to be reopened as a bait shop, gift shop, or additional retail space, the possibilities are endless. Character and craftsmanship shine throughout every corner of this historic property. Thoughtfully preserved details include original hardwood floors, beautiful woodwork crafted from trees harvested on the property, and original exterior siding incorporated into the dining room, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that guests won't soon forget. The sale includes nearly everything needed to continue operations, including dining room furnishings, commercial kitchen equipment, bakery displays, appliances, beds, dressers, and much more (with a few seller exclusions), making this a truly turnkey investment. The inn features six guest bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths, with several rooms offering private sinks and showers. The flexible layout allows you to live on-site while operating the business or tailor the property to fit your vision. The café has hosted popular dinner events and Friday fish fries, demonstrating even more income potential for future owners. Outside, guests can enjoy the peaceful setting with a private pond, horseshoe pits, volleyball area, and a scenic path leading to the sandy shoreline of Big Manistique Lake, complete with a lakeside fire pit. This all-sports lake is well known for exceptional fishing, boating, kayaking, and swimming, while Helmer Creek provides yet another beautiful waterfront feature. Comfortable year-round operation is supported by a heat pump with air conditioning in the dining area, LP forced-air heat, electric baseboard heat in the guest rooms, and supplemental heat in the front shop. Conveniently located on a county-maintained, year-round road just five minutes from Curtis, this central Upper Peninsula location places guests within easy reach of Seney National Wildlife Refuge, Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, and extensive ATV and snowmobile trail systems. Guests will also appreciate having Hank's General Store and Moose Du Nord just up the road, offering convenient access to fuel, groceries, and everyday essentials during their stay. Whether you're looking to continue its successful operation or expand its offerings, the historic Helmer House Inn presents a rare opportunity to own a destination property where history, hospitality, and waterfront living come together. Don't miss your chance to invest in one of the Upper Peninsula's most unique and memorable waterfront properties.
