[QUOTE="BryanDP, post: 2878765, member: 1111"] I have 52 acres near Keystone Lake in Osage County with nice pond and a couple of basic but decent cabins with electrical, heat and air in the middle. One cabin is ours and the other is a guest cabin in a "bunkhouse" format with two rooms and a small kitchenette up front. There is a queen sized bed and a set of bunk beds on one side with two sets of bunk beds on the other. The restroom is about 20 steps off the front porch in a separate little "outhouse" building that also has a shower with filtered water from the pond. My wife calls the place "glamping." I don't hunt (thought I'm fine with people that do) and I don't think any of the neighbors do either so there's quite a bit of wildlife activity out there. There's also some pretty good fishing in the 2+ acre pond and about four miles of ATV trails that are fun to rid or hike. We enjoy having guests so I have thought about doing a "bed and breakfast" sort of hunting experience out there but I have always been doubtful that anyone would want to pay what I would want to be interested in pursuing such an endeavor. Perhaps this is something that you and maybe some others here could help me think through and see if it's a viable business for me? I don't really have any idea of what anyone would be willing to pay for what I have in mind so that sort of input would be helpful. Here is the type of weekend experience I'm suggesting: [LIST] [*]Guest check-in at 3:00 p.m. or later on Friday afternoon. [*]Dinner Friday night provided. [*]Breakfast, lunch and dinner provided on Saturday. [*]Breakfast provided on Sunday morning. [*]Guest check-out, noon Sunday. [*]Private fishing and hunting during any times desired from arrival to departure. [*]Target and skeet shooting. [*]Access to three ATVs. [*]Access to paddle/jon boat. [*]Access to tractor in case you have something you need picked up from your hunt. [/LIST] Pricing would need to be a base fee for two people and an additional fee for each additional person. I have numbers in mind and am happy to share mine but I don't want to taint others thoughts by sharing mine in advance. What would this sort of thing be worth? What other amenities should be included to give it additional value? Thanks in advance for helping me think this through a bit. Bryan [/QUOTE]
