Picture windows look out to a magnificent view of the green canopy over Bailey Creek and a forested mountain ridge beyond.

The whole area around the lodge, pool and Jacuzzi is surrounded by lawn, lots of lawn! Bailey Creek Lodge is the perfect place to end each day and share stories over a glass of wine and fine food.

Sometimes it s delivering a #18 PMD sparkle-dun on a 16- foot leader, tapered down to 7x tippet, from an aluminum pram on picturesque Fall River.

Dick has hand picked his guide staff from a wide-range of experience and backgrounds, all employing a common denominator of patience and professionalism.
