Ask a QuestionHunts start at $4,500 and are priced by package length (a focused single day vs. a multi-day lodge hunt) and trophy score class. Final pricing depends on the class of buck you're after — we'll walk you through exactly what fits your goals and budget on a quick call.
Every hunter is guided, with guiding arranged 1:1 or one guide to two hunters. Hunts include field dressing, walk-in cooler storage until departure, and private-lake fishing. Multi-day hunts include lodge accommodations and meals.
"Your class" means the score range of the package you book. If a rifle hunter is not presented a reasonable shot opportunity at a buck in that class, we provide one additional night during the current hunt when available, or at another time in the same season. Passing or missing fulfills the guarantee. A wounded animal is considered a harvest and must be paid for. Because of distance restrictions and other variables, the guarantee does not apply to bow or crossbow hunts.
We intentionally keep numbers low. On a single-day hunt you'll be the only hunter on 320+ acres, which keeps pressure down and the property hunting well.
Yes — rifle is what this ranch is built around, and it's the only way we can stand behind the Shot Guarantee. Our heated blinds sit over managed food plots at comfortable, ethical rifle distances, and you're welcome to sight in at our on-site range before your hunt. Bow, crossbow and muzzleloader hunters are welcome too; just tell us when you book so we can plan the setup.
Our heated, enclosed blinds are positioned over managed food plots, so most opportunities are comfortable, ethical shot distances. Your guide will go over specifics for your setup.
We assist with recovery, handle field dressing, and store your deer in our walk-in cooler until you leave. Final processing and taxidermy are not included.
A non-refundable deposit reserves your dates — $500 for a single-day hunt and $2,500 for an overnight package. The balance is due at the hunt. Reach out and we'll confirm current availability and lock in your dates.
Deposits are non-refundable, because holding a date means turning other hunters away. That said, plans change. If something comes up, call us — we handle date changes case by case and we'd far rather move your hunt than keep your money. The earlier you let us know, the more we can do.
We're in Branch, Michigan, in Lake County. Out-of-state guests generally fly into Grand Rapids (GRR) and drive up — about an hour and forty minutes. Once your dates are confirmed we'll send exact directions and arrival instructions well before you leave home. If you'd rather not drive yourself, ask us about transport when we talk.
An animal that is wounded and not recovered is considered harvested. Your guide works hard to ensure clean, ethical shots and successful recovery. We're happy to review the full policy with you before you book.
