CBRE presents the opportunity to acquire the fee-simple interest through a ‘court ordered sale’ of the historic and
unique Camp Lakeview Marina, RV, Camping, and Resort property on Lake Tanwax in the Mt. Rainier National Forest
in Graham, WA .
The 296.09 acre property includes multiple parcels of land with a marina on the lake and acres of forest trails with
hiking, mountain biking, sporting activities, and fishing. Originally a timber camp (1930s) and WWII Retreat Center for
Army Air Corps members (1940s), the property is “both” a recreation and unique event center property.
Camp Lakeview features 51 total RV spaces for lakeside long-term residents and recreation lifestyle. Plus 16 sites that
can accommodate an RV (without full hookup); 42 of these spaces are currently rented to long-term stay patrons.
Currently, 20-RV spaces are rented to long-term stay patrons with 17-spaces available for recreation patrons. There are
65-Camp spaces with water, power, or traditional ‘dry’ camping. Lake Tanwax is one of only a few lakes in the region
that allows boat access with Camp Lakeview having boat slips and designated swim areas. The event facilities on the
property are the Timber Lodge, Cedar Lodge, and Little Black Chapel. The property has 5 cabins for recreation occupants that are currently rented to long-term residents as well as 7 individual cottages, each with a full kitchen.
Camp Lakeview is a great venue for destination weddings, reunions, banquets, company events, and social gatherings. The Timber lodge is 1,950 SF recently restored with a commercial kitchen and seating for 175 guests. The Cedar Lodge is a two-story lodge with 14 rooms that sleeps up to 53-guests with a commercial kitchen, dining area, and patio overlooking the lake. The Chapel is restored to accommodate 100-guests in pews in the 1,081 SF with a beautiful, new interior.
Camp Lakeview is 32 miles from Tacoma and 54 miles from Seattle giving it great access to the 4 MILLION metropolitan
area population who come to the Mt. Rainier National Forest to visit Mt. Rainier 21 miles from the property.
The ‘court ordered sale’ will allow a new owner to decide how best to market and operate the permanent RV sites, the
cabins, and the event facilities to maximize the revenue from the property. Properly marketed - the event facilities can
add to the RV, Cabin, and Camping occupancy of the property.
