~ Introduction ~

For more than forty years, Galice Resort has been a foundational destination for recreation and hospitality along the Wild and Scenic section of the Rogue River. Owned and operated by the Thomason Family since 1983, the resort reflects a deep-rooted passion for the outdoors and a commitment to preserving the spirit of Southern Oregon's river culture. What began as a modest river outpost has grown into a beloved destination for rafters, anglers, and adventurers from all over the world. Located just 20 minutes west of Grants Pass, the resort is tucked beneath towering old-growth forests where the fresh scent of evergreen trees signals the beginning of a slower, simpler pace of life.

Galice Resort offers year-round lodging with three spacious lodges and seven well-appointed cabins, making it an ideal basecamp for outdoor adventure. From May through September, the resort comes alive with a riverside store, vibrant food truck court, and live music events that create a festive yet laid-back atmosphere. Ideally situated just upstream from Grave Creek, Galice is the last stop for many before entering the Wild Scenic section of the Rogue, and often the first place they return after multi-day adventures. The area is known for world-class rafting, fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing, drawing outdoor enthusiasts from around the country. This offering is turnkey, including 12.8 acres across 10 tax lots, lodging improvements, a general store, and all supporting infrastructure, as well as the operating business with all furnishings, fixtures, equipment, and branding assets included.

Galice Lodge: The resort's largest and most versatile accommodation, offering 8 bedrooms (with 15 beds) and 7 full baths across three stories and over 5,100 square feet. Ideal for large groups, the lodge includes private en-suite bedrooms, spacious gathering areas, a full kitchen, a recreation room, and a dedicated hot tub room. While the entire lodge can be reserved for exclusive use, individual rooms can also be available.

Rogue Retreat: A spacious, traditionally designed two-story home ideal for large groups or multi-family stays. The layout features a master suite with a spa room, additional guest accommodations on both levels, a generous living area, and a large shaded deck with views of the Rogue River. Four different sleeping spaces provide a total of 12 beds. While currently used in the lodging pool, the home also presents strong potential as an owner's residence.

Riverview Lodge: The most private lodging option at Galice Resort, offering 5 bedrooms (with 10 beds) and 3 full baths across 2,774 square feet. Featuring a remodeled main level with an open-concept kitchen and living space, a wall of windows, and a large deck with hot tub, the home is ideal for both entertaining and relaxation. With flexible sleeping arrangements across two levels, the property is well-suited for large groups and also offers strong potential as an owner-operator residence thanks to its layout and location.

Cabin Row: On the same elevation as the Lodge, Cabin Row consists of the Guest House, the Bunkhouse, Cabins 1-4, and the Cottage. Each of these units provides rustic rural charm to its visitors, in a communal yet private setting, with efficient quarters for multiple individual parties at an affordable nightly rate.

Boathouse Store: The Riverfront store serves as the central hub for food, drinks, supplies, and entertainment--complete with a full bar, soft serve ice cream, food, drinks, essential gear, gift shop, and indoor seating with views of the Rogue River. The adjacent outdoor event space offers a lively atmosphere with food trucks, live music, and yard games throughout the summer season. This vibrant gathering area brings energy and community to the resort.

~ Opportunities ~

Restaurant: The Galice Resort holds a rare grandfathered permit to rebuild its former restaurant (lost to fire in 2021) on its original footprint, a highly valuable asset given the strict new development restrictions within the Wild and Scenic Rogue River corridor.

Other: The property is also well-suited for events like weddings, retreats, and reunions, with opportunities to grow revenue through targeted marketing and simple venue improvements. Adding guest services such as gear rentals, shuttles, or wellness experiences can further enhance the resort without competing with local guides.
