What are the more important features that you look for in a hunting lodge?
Most are to fancy for me.I would love a more roughing it type lodge at a better price myself.I do understand there is so many people these outfitters deal with that like to be waited on but I just want to hunt.Have a bed with a pillow and i am good to go.Some good food at dinner is nice also.I most say i think almost all the places you see when looking at outfitters website look amazing.For me I guess a nice clean place with good food is most important
I guess I'm the girlie-man here.
I guess I'm the girlie-man here. I don't mind a hunting camp without the luxuries, but if I'm going to a lodge, I want comfort. I want good sheets, a nice mattress, and en suite bathroom with plenty of hot water. Not tepid water. Of course I want good hunting, but as far as the lodge itself, I want good food. I prefer game meats be incorporated into as many meals as possible. And plenty of time around the bar before dinner. I have no need for massages or a sauna, but if the weather is nice, I won't turn my nose up at a pool. But I really do want the dining to be excellent. Daily laundry service so that I can pack as little as possible.
I like there to be lots of taxidermy, preferably creative, to inspire ideas for my own trophy mounts. Great view of the surrounding gamelands is nice.
This is just asking the guys what they want.
Now lets add another thread, "You are also taking your wife along...."
Now what is the most important feature of the lodge?
Think it will change the list much?
