About 169 River Creek Dr

5.82 acres with over 1500 feet on the Broad River in Lake Lure.

The campground consisted of 53 total campsites with 31 full-service sites, 15 tent sites and 6 tiny home cabins. The cabins sustained moderate damage and will need remodeling. There is a total of 5 septic systems, 3 wells and a 30X60 metal building which served as laundry, game room and office. The potential for this tract is unlimited whether you want to run a campground or other business venture.....Liquidation priced at $350,000! Property is also listed under MLS 4280529
