Founded in 1979, Mt Dobson Ski Field in the Mackenzie region, not far from Tekapo and just 45 minutes from Fairlie, is on the market.
The current family owners have run the independent resort for the last 45 years and are now retiring.
So, if you’ve ever fancied opting out of the rat race and setting up camp amongst azure lakes, Southern Alps peaks and big skies then now’s your chance.
You’ll get a loyal customer base, annual profits and potential for some serious ski resort growth.
‘Dobo’ as the locals call it, has over 400 hectares of skiable terrain in a sunny basin with a triple chairlift, T-bar, platter lift, beginner’s tow and modern groomers.
You’ll get the highest car park in New Zealand and a base cafe and a list of secure operations including access rights, water rights and a long-term licence from the Department of Conservation for exclusive concession on prime alpine land.
Mt Dobson sits on the snow highway between Christchurch and Queenstown, a coveted road trip for snow tourists and the sale includes a freehold workshop and base site in Fairlie for year-round operations.
How much? Price is by negotiation, so really depends how good you are at holding the offer line.
