Wonderful Trip

The Walter Family

We had another wonderful trip up to Sportsman’s Lodge this summer! This has been a family trip for quite a few years but we had to take a few years off when the grandkids came along...


70th Birthday

Piper, Reid, Jeff and Dan Kelly
Lake Forest, IL, USA

My brothers and I are still thanking my dad for taking us to Sportsman’s! Ruffo, you and your family are wonderful hosts. We particularly appreciated that you went out of your way to help us continue our family’s birthday tradition (strawberry shortcake) for my dad’s 70th birthday.


Best Pike Fishing

John Hadley
Villa Park, IL, USA

Our last trip to Sportsman’s was the best Pike fishing we ever enjoyed. What a great way for a father and son to bond as men.

Reed and I caught over a dozen Northerns 42 inches and over. Reed won the money pot with a 44 incher.


Best Fishing Trip Ever

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you, your staff and guides for an awesome fishing experience.

That was absolutely the best fishing trip I’ve ever been on. The fishing was great, the food was excellent, and the guides were great as well!!!
