Property Details

  • Lot Size 3.4 Acre
  • Date Updated May 15, 2026
Located along the eastern shoreline of the West Reservoir in Coventry Township, the portfolio sits at the center of the Portage Lakes’ primary commercial and recreational district.Two adjacent waterfront venues in the heart of Portage Lakes are being offered as a combined reactivation opportunity. With over $1.5M in recent infrastructure improvements completed in 2023 to 2025, four transferable liquor licenses, 650+ feet of West Reservoir frontage, and approximately 26,938 SF across two buildings on 3.4 acres, the portfolio provides a ready platform for an experienced operator to launch one or multiple destination concepts on Northeast Ohio's most established waterfront entertainment corridor. The properties formerly known as Pick's Boathouse and The Old Harbor Inn occupy established lakefront positions with extensive dock infrastructure and flexible layouts. The configuration supports multiple execution paths, including a single flagship concept, two complementary venues with shared traffic or a phased activation strategy. In a market where commercial waterfront sites of this scale are difficult to replicate, the portfolio offers strong visibility, infrastructure, and long-term operating potential for operators, developers, and capital partners.
