Because of our small size, cancellations affect us significantly. A last minute cancellation gives us little chance of filling the space. For this reason we uphold a strict cancellation policy. Your deposit, less a $200 cancellation fee, will be happily refunded if cancellation is made at least 90 days prior to arrival. After that we regret that no refund is possible for non-guided fishing days, non-arrival or early departure.
