Fly Fishing in November


These are just two of our favorite things...

First- we like it a lot when people come to the White River to fish and stay at our place,
and Second- we like to fry up their catch and serve them a traditional "shore lunch" complete with all the fixin's.

Get Ready for Fall Hunting & Fishing Now!

Looking for a place to hunt? This customer stayed in a Camper Cabin over the weekend and rented a boat to go hunting in the lower wilderness area of the Buffalo National Park. Look what he brought back!

Time to Make Your Thanksgiving Reservation

I haven't posted in awhile but we had a very pleasant, busy Labor Day Holiday weekend with lots of what are starting to become familiar faces in addition to hopefully making some new friends who will come back and see us.
We had threats from Gustav and many of our guests were popping into the office on a regular basis to check the progress on the Weather Channel or view the radar on the computer. The rain started here on Tuesday afternoon and we ended up with about 6 1/2 inches which really muddied the river. The Corp of Engineers did us a big favor and stopped generating for the first time since we flooded in March. On Thursday the Buffalo River crested and we spent a good portion of our time planting sticks in the campground and watching them disappear under water- slightly nervewracking.. Today, 9/8, the river is clearing and the Corp is maintaining a schedule of only 2 generators on line. We haven't seen water this low since last winter! Everyone predicts wonderful fishing this Fall and I encourage you to consider spending some time at the resort between now and Thanksgiving. The days are sunny and cool and it's quiet and peaceful on the river.

How's the Fishing?


Ask this father and son team who landed this 8 lb. 27" brown trout this morning from the shore. This beauty was caught with corn and took 30 minutes to net.

Garrett's Great Catch!


The annual family fishing trip yielded this stringer of many Rainbows one day last week in the high water.

Adam's Brown Trout


Just another example of that possible "fish of a lifetime" that people are catching on the river right outside our resort.
