Our clients become friends. We are proud to say that our friends are very pleased with their experience at Lake Douglas Hunting and Fishing Inc…that’s why they return. Here’s what some of the hunters had to say:
"I don’t have the words to describe the tremendous time that we had at Lake Douglas Hunting & Fishing. It was a true adventure that will live in our memories forever or until we come back and create more memories and we certainly will be back. The accommodations, the equipment, the food, the staff and the outfitter are all A+ to say the least. The staff went out of their way with over the top customer service to make certain that all guests were treated like friends and not just clients. We hunted the 2nd week of the season and the weather was supposedly “too warm”, but the camp tagged out on Moose by Thursday with a monster bear as a bonus and that was following a 1st week of 100% moose as well. Newfoundland is truly a hunters paradise and Lake Douglas is a too well kept secret."

"I spoke with at least 15 Newfoundland outfitters at the Sports Show in Harrisburg and my every instinct told me that Greg and Katrina had what I was looking for. My instincts were dead on. Truly the hunt and adventure of a lifetime but it won’t be once in a lifetime as we will be back again and again. Already planning our next trip. What a beautiful place with terrific people and heart pounding adventure. The scenery, the cooking and the accommodations are worth the price of the hunt alone, but throw in a meat pole full of huge animals and this place is beyond words. Greg is not about the almighty dollar and pumping as many clients through his camp as possible. Instead he is focused on building his business through hard work and individualized service to each client. We were not treated like a number, we were treated like friends. Thank you Greg for everything and please ad me to your list of references as I want to tell everyone about your lodge."

"I've been to different camps all over the USA and Canada. This camp is right at the top of the list."

"Effort and graciousness of all are extremely obvious. The guides, hunt and cook were fantastic! A sure fire success story and a home away from home."
Joe Antanavage, HAMBURGLAWAJA@VERIZON.NET
"I had a great time. Hunt was challenging and fruitful. Your whole crew were fun and skilled for the assignments. Judy, well I invited her to come to Pennsylvania and cook but she said no thanks!!"

“The [Lake Douglas] Lodge Is way beyond what we expected; the accommodations are first class. The guides do absolutely their best to give you the hunt you expect. They know the area and where to find animals. Everyone works together as a team to get your trophy, to getting it out and getting it processed. The guides work with you and your physical ability (or lack thereof; I got bronchitis and could hardly walk and still managed to get a moose in 2008). The lodge has vehicles and boats to get you anywhere it might be necessary to fill your tags and getting the animals out. They have a large walk in cooler so as soon as the animal is caped and broke down it is in the cooler. You have the option of taking the meat home quartered or having it processed. I have had problems getting animals home in the past so that part was a big relief.
The cook, to say the least, is unbelievable with main courses and desserts. Breakfast is made to order so you don’t leave hungry. I don’t know if the cook runs the place, but the guides seem to do anything she requests. The cooperation and camaraderie that is in the lodge makes you feel very comfortable. (My wife loves it there).
Glenda and I have been all over the place hunting and fishing and, by far, Lake Douglas put on the best hunts we have ever been on. We have been there three times and intend on going back and will recommend it to anyone.
Glenda and I went to Lake Douglas in 2007. I hunted moose and caribou and she hunted bear. I took a 259.5 (265 makes book) caribou and a very nice moose. She only got to hunt a couple of days; the bears were there, but did not give her the opportunity to connect. We went back in 2008 with our son, Ray. We drove and he flew into Deer Lake. The guide called in a small bull the first day of the hunt and Ray passed on it. The second day the guide called in nice bull which Ray took. Prior to the hunt my guide and I decided to go after a large moose that had seen on a previous hunt (by the way, the hunter he was guiding at the time killed a huge moose). We hunted the hardest I have ever hunted all week for the big moose (with bronchitis) and on the last day of our hunt my guide called in two bulls. I shot the larger of the two. The best hunt I have ever been on! So thanks Greg, even though I settled on a smaller one the last hour of our hunt. It seemed a shame to waste a tag.”

"Lake Douglas provided me with a bull moose of a lifetime, a wonderful hunting
experience, and clean and comfortable accommodations. Greg and the staff did an
excellent job!!!"

"Greg, I can't wait to return to your camp. I know that even if I am not capable of long walks, your camp is one that can accommodate every individual's needs. My girlfriend asked what it was like and I told her it was a place where families could be comfortable, men could be men, and that there were many diferent ways we could hunt whether it be by ATV, Argo, truck or boat. She was worried because of my lung condition and I assured her that you and your guide, along with your mom, would see that everybody was comfortable.
I hunt all over, Greg, and you have one of the most enjoyable lodges and staff I've met. A lot of people say it isn't just about killing an animal, but when they don't get an animal, they complain . Your lodge provides not just a great hunting experience, but a great all-round experience. I am glad that we met a few years back and that I got to hunt along with all of you and my friends."
