Awesome experience
10.0
Darryl and Joyce made us feel like we were part of the family. We prepared this hunt well in advance and communications has always been fluid and helpful. Super friendly and caring people, top notch accommodation and excellent food. We have harvested an elk on the 5th day of our 7 day hunt. We saw elks on the first 2 days of the hunt with no legal bulls but Stuart, our very experienced guide, focused on a high probability area that paid off on day 5. We were very well prepared for the challenging country (physically, mentally and equipment wise) which played and significant role in our overall experience. It has been a wonderful experience that left us with long lasting memories and friends.

Couldn’t be better

I took my son for his 8th grade graduation trip. He wanted to go bear hunting. We felt very well taken care of. The cabin and beds were comfortable, the food was amazing, nice, warm showers, beautiful scenery. We felt like we were part of the family. We saw a lot of bears and I think he would have been able to get at least one bear doing spot and stalk method if he was more experienced. He was able to shoot two bears, both using the hound dogs.
That it came to an end.

2024 Goat Hunt
10.0
Great people and great guides. Saw goats pretty much every time we stopped to spot. Being able to stay in a cabin for a goat hunt with great food is an obvious plus as well. Confident if you’re able to do the hiking required, they’ll get you a Billy.

When I first arrived, I was immediately greeted by the owner Darryl and my guide for the week, Callum. I was welcomed into the lodge and the camp by the entire family. There is abundant game in the area, and you will not be disappointed by the amount of wildlife you'll see...big game ABOUNDS in this part of B.C. They know the area like the back of their hand, and they will definitely put the work into ensuring your success. The food and accommodations are second to none, with every bite you put in your mouth being homemade. I have never felt more at home and "at ease" by a family in my life. Highly recommended and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
Leaving on the last day was sad, as I had enjoyed my time with them so much!
