For fishing only

This is a fishing lodge. It doesn’t offer much more than that. Bed was lumpy and old. The staff was great and very accommodating.

Made a great central location, and the river being right out back was a nice touch. The beds were very comfortable and seemed new. The room did get a pretty warm, but we put the box fan up in the window and it really cooled it down.
