Resort

SandPiper Solutions Inc. is a multi-disciplinary corporation led by experienced project management/landman professionals. SandPiper is launching an innovative tourism venture that transforms traditional agricultural grain bins into boutique, lakeside rental cottages on Lake McGregor, just south of Milo, Alberta.

​

This opportunity responds to strong demand for travel while offering a first-to-market, competition-free opportunity within a rapidly growing tourism sector. With a modest entry investment and strong projected returns, SandPiper is well-positioned to introduce a destination that attracts families, couples, event groups, and outdoor enthusiasts year-round.

​

SandPiper seeks a minimum raise of one million, seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for phase 1, with options for equity or financing, to kick-start our resort, in which SandPiper will own and operate.

There are no grain bin resorts, and a future barn-shaped boutique hotel, with accommodations, spa, corporate retreat, or similar experiential lakefront stays within the region.

​

SandPiper’s growth will include a purchase of an old-fashioned steamboat to host dinner cruises, weddings, events, etc.

​

This recognizes SandPiper as a first-mover and puts them in a monopoly position.
