DESCRIPTION

PRIME KILLINGTON LOCATION - The iconic BACK BEHIND SALOON and BBQ SMOKEHOUSE! The Back Behind is primed and ready for the next successful chapter in its storied history. Originally opened as a country store in 1974, the building was transformed in 1981 into an imaginative restaurant famous for its unforgettable setting. The main dining area seats 109, and is centered around a colossal 35-ton, circa 1900 railroad snowplow car. A cheerful red antique caboose serves as an additional, charming dining space. The property is turnkey with great new updated commercial kitchen including Vulcan stove, fully appointed bar with 12 draft lines, and a state of the art Southern Pride Smoker just off the kitchen. The former owners ran this successful restaurant for more than 20 years, establishing a solid reputation for great food at a fair price. Those owners have retired and moved on, creating an amazing opportunity for the next investor to step up. The sale includes the business, interior furnishings, all equipment and all the real estate. This incredible spot is just minutes from the Killington Skyship, 15 minutes to Woodstock and 20 minutes to Okemo. Make this iconic restaurant your own and carry on the tradition of this beloved local landmark! FOR SALE OR LEASE!
