I recently spent 4 nights at the Bighorn River View Lodge. They have a nice package of 4 nights…read morelodging, meals and 3 days guided fishing. Our guide, Chad, was great. We caught fish - most of which were large. The food was excellent. On trips like these I have often subsisted on Doritos, peanuts, and other questionable ultra processed "food". This time each dinner included a huge salad, meat, a starch - pasta, rice, etc. and a vegetable plus desert. Excellent and we didn't go away hungry. My favorite meal is breakfast and you get a wide choice of options including my favorite bacon and eggs. Lunches were provided on our floats of the Bighorn and were very good with more food than I could eat. Dave and Cary and their two labs were great hosts. I highly recommend

I booked Thursday thru Sunday and brought my 26 year old son along for the trip. Everything about our stay was perfect! the lodge and our cabin was clean, welcoming and comfortable. The food was excellent, and our fishing guide Chad was incredible. We caught dozens of fish over two days, and when coming back to the lodge at the end of the day we were welcomed by Cary and David with a cold drink and a great dinner. Cary and David provide guests with everything they need, and no detail is overlooked. I highly recommend the Bighorn Riverview Lodge and Cabins, it was perfect, and can't wait to go back!

Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality made us feel completely taken care of and allowed us to focus on enjoying every moment on and off the water. The fishing itself was exceptional, made even better by our guide Ron, who was knowledgeable, patient, and an absolute pleasure to spend the day with. He knew the river inside and out and put us on fish consistently while making the experience both fun and educational. Throughout our stay we were treated to excellent food--delicious, gourmet-quality meals that exceeded expectations and were the perfect way to start end each day. Bighorn River Lodge delivers the full package: world-class fishing, top-notch service, amazing food, and unforgettable people. We can't wait to return.

They have a patio with a manmade pond and small log cabins available for rent. Although the reason I was here was for dinner, and it was perfect, I had the sirloin steak and my companion had a Philly steak sandwich. While a Black Panther circled the table and fish jumped at the bugs while the sun was setting on my last Friday of the summer. Our server was Benjamin who did a wonderful job and brought us beverages not found on the menu. Will definitely be coming back with more company-my companion said, "it's very nice, very pleasant " And Yes it was both of those!

My father and I have been fishing with Brad Downey and his guides at Angler's Edge since 2001. We…read moretraveled to Montana for fishing trips in 2001, 2009, 2012, and just recently in August of 2019. The Bighorn River is perhaps the best trout fishery in the lower 48. We have been guided by Brad and others, most recently by Dave Palumbo. A+ experience. Conditions were a bit tough the week we were there, but we were consistently catching more fish than others on the stream, noticeably so. Guides were constantly asking Dave for advise, and what flies/rigs we were using! The accommodations at Angler's Edge are as wonderful as the guiding/fishing. The property boasts two well-maintained guest residences. One is a typical house with a finished basement. It has two full baths, two queen bedrooms on the main level, and three bedrooms in the lower level. The lower level rooms have multiple queen beds. You can pack 10-12 people in the house including the couches. We did this before, in fact, on a large group trip in 2001, a trip organized by our local fly shop in Pittsburgh. The other residence is a cabin-like house with 2 bedrooms with 2 queen beds in each, and a common full bath. Each house has a kitchen with all the equipment and appliances you need to cook...just bring food. Make sure to bring enough alcohol, otherwise you will be driving back to Hardin, which is 45-50 minutes away. We were pleased by the fancy new propane grills at the house. There is a deck and patio dining set at the house, and a large front porch at the cabin with benches, chairs, and a grill. The cabin and house are separated by more than enough distance from one another be considered private (150 feet). There is virtually no interaction with guests staying in the other residence, aside from a shared driveway. The house has broadband DSL, whose wireless is within range of the cabin. I was impressed by the speed of the DSL, which was on the high end for typical DSL (speed tests of ~8 megabits/s). It was fast enough to stream an NFL game in HD without a hiccup. I was also able to run a remote desktop client without issue. Both residences were updated with a HDTV since we were here last, and the satellite dish package appears to be one of the top tier packages with all the sports and specialty channels. We were very happy to return to the Bighorn and stay at Angler's Edge. I would highly recommend this outfitter to any passionate fly fisherman or woman, also seeking really nice accommodations.
