GUEST INFO
GENERAL
Check in is anytime after 11:00 AM the afternoon prior to your weekend hunt. Upon arrival you will stage your kit in the Ready Room, settle into your bedroom, and we will make our way to the Gun Ranges to warm up those trigger fingers! We will then come back to the lodge for cocktails and appetizers. We will usually then go scout at the overlook in the evening followed by dinner. After that, the options are for you to choose.
Departure time is anytime after lunch on the last day of hunting.
If you are flying commercial, Dallas Love Field (DAL) is the closest; Dallas-Fort Worth International (DFW) is the nearest major Airport and is approximately an hour and twenty from the lodge. If you are flying private, you can fly into Corsicana Municipal Airport in Corsicana, TX (CRS); or Athens Municipal (F44). Both are approximately 20 min. from the lodge.
You will need to purchase all Texas State and Federal licenses prior to your arrival (we can purchase them online from the lodge in a pinch, but we prefer you bring them with you as the TPWD has some glitches).
You may purchase all necessary licenses at:
