Lancaster County hospitality portfolio for sale



Colliers International is marketing a Lancaster County hospitality portfolio that includes Miller's Smorgasbord, Plain & Fancy Farm and the AmishView Inn & Suites.

The asking price is not being disclosed though it's "definitely in the millions," said George Lulos, senior vice president.


The owner of the assets, Thomas E. Strauss Inc., a family holding company, is looking to "take advantage of what we see as a uniquely advantageous investment climate," he said. Interest rates are low, a lot of buyers are in the market and the economy continues to improve.

"It's a momentum strategy to take advantage of the upswing," Lulos said, expecting interest from local hoteliers and restaurant operators, as well as national and international investors.

The three strong tourist attractions, which are split between campuses on routes 30 and 340, are complemented by several specialty retail shops and other attractions. That includes a theater, buggy rides and an Amish farmhouse tour.

The hotel was recently expanded to 86 rooms from 44. LNP reported the cost of that project at $6 million.
