- KMKyle McCormackOct 15, 20255.0Had a great time hunting in the Bob Marshall wilderness area. Strite put in a lot of hard work. The horses and mules were well trained and the food was great. I got a 6x6 bull elk on the hunt and was happy with the experience
- CFChad FranksAug 18, 20255.0Just back from a fly fishing trip with Montana Wilderness Lodge and Outfitters…incredible!! The staff at Montana Wilderness is top notch, friendly and very professional. From the owners to the support staff they were all there help ensure a memorable adventure. The guides are exceptional and had me on fish all day, every day! If you are looking for a great camping/fly fishing adventure this is the place!!
- JMJen McLellanJul 26, 20255.0What. A. Trip!!! There is really no way to adequately describe how incredibly wonderful our time in the Bob Marshall with the Montana Wilderness Lodge Outfitters was on our recent trip. The scenery was utterly breath-taking, the fishing was outstanding, the time on the trail, the river, in camp were all simply phenomenal. But what set this trip apart was the care provided to us by the Wilderness Lodge team. We were treated to incredible meals (thank you Kaitlyn!), special side-trips, stories, and an overall level of support and kindness by every single person hosting us on this trip. We are so grateful. We'll be back.
- KSKristin SeversonMay 26, 20215.0My husband and I just got home from our first black bear hunt with Montana Wilderness Lodge. We had the best time and enjoyed the entire trip. It was a different experience having a lodge with food and a bed and shower but definitely the way to go! Our guide Strite was amazing we told him we would do whatever it took to have an opportunity and he took us up on it. We hiked all over the place and saw a couple of black bears but never had the opportunity to take a shot. I cannot say enough good things about the food, Regan and Kaitlin made sure there was always hot coffee, lunch to go if needed, and amazing dinners there was always plenty to eat and it was delicious! The whole staff was so accommodating and nice and took great care of us. We will definitely be back and if you are looking for an amazing public land hunt from a business that cares for its hunters you need to give them a call!
