Big country. Private water. Your season, handled.
14,000 deeded acres, nine miles of private trout water, and a lodge that runs the whole trip — guided elk and mule deer hunts, blue-ribbon fly fishing, wingshooting, and a table worth coming back for. You just show up.
Fourteen thousand private acres. Nine miles of trout water. One crew that runs the whole trip — so you just hunt, fish, and come back next year.
Blackfeather is an all-inclusive hunting and fly-fishing lodge in Colorado's Gunnison country. Guided elk and mule deer on private land that hunts like the backcountry, blue-ribbon trout water fished by our guests alone, and wingshooting over pointing dogs.
Private cabins, a chef who cooks like it matters, and a team that handles licenses, gear, transport, and game care. You bring yourself and a willingness to be looked after.

Big private land, private water, and the kind of light you remember.
What our guests say
Most of our calendar is repeat guests and the friends they bring. Here’s why.
"Best week of hunting and fishing of my life, and I’ve done a lot of guided trips. Bull elk on day three, then a half-day on private water that I still think about. The lodge ran like clockwork."
"Brought my dad for his seventieth. They put him on a great mule deer and treated him like family. The chef, the cabins, the guides — every detail was handled."
"Nine miles of private trout water with no one else on it is exactly as good as it sounds. We’ll be back every fall for the cast & blast."
