Description
Cedar Crest Resort – Historic Huntington Lake Resort & Marina
A rare opportunity to restore and reimagine one of Huntington Lake’s most historic lakefront resort properties. Located on the highly desirable north shore of the lake, Cedar Crest Resort offers 14 rental cabins, 18 RV sites and 12 campsites within a forested High Sierra setting.
The resort traces its roots to 1878, with the original compound developed in 1922. Many of the early structures remain, creating an exceptional opportunity to preserve the property’s authentic mountain character while introducing modern amenities. Local lore suggests the resort once served as a private Hollywood retreat during the Prohibition era, adding to its rich and colorful history.
Cedar Crest Resort operates under a U.S. Forest Service, Sierra National Forest Commercial Use 133 Permit covering approximately 14.3 acres. The permit allows for the operation, construction and maintenance of a resort and marina, including food service, retail sales, boat docks, boat rentals and related resort facilities. The land is owned by the Sierra National Forest, while the resort owners own the improvements and hold the permit rights to operate.
Existing improvements include approximately 11,500 square feet under roof, highlighted by the original 3,000-square-foot lodge with a commercial kitchen, restaurant seating for approximately 50 guests, a small bar, grocery store and on-site and off-site liquor-sales licensing. Additional structures include 14 lakefront and lake-view rental cabins, the original 1922 owner’s cabin, a chef’s cabin, staff bunk cabins, men’s and women’s shower and restroom facilities, a laundry building, A-frame shop, tool sheds and other support buildings.
The property also includes 18 RV sites and 12 rental campsites ready for redevelopment, along with a marina designation allowing for boat docks and boat-rental operations. Thoughtful restoration, renovation and the addition of new wood decks could preserve the resort’s timeless lakeside character while creating a revitalized mountain destination.
With its exceptional Huntington Lake location, historic improvements, established commercial infrastructure and permitted resort and marina uses, Cedar Crest Resort presents a truly distinctive multigenerational investment opportunity. It is ideally suited for an experienced hospitality operator, resort developer or visionary buyer seeking to restore and preserve an iconic High Sierra property.
