Our private trophy trout fishing is no longer provided "free to our lodging guests". A permit is needed, and a fee for the permit is needed. This service is not guaranteed. Bad water conditions and both high and low water can occur. These are considered "Acts of God" and out of our control. Refunds are not given for bad water conditions. The price of lodging is fair and reasonable for the lodging provided as a standalone fee.
