Proprietors Andy Bennett, his wonderful wife Chelsey and beautiful daughters outdo themselves every time and run a fantastic fly shop, very knowledgeable and effective guide service and experienced outfitter. There is great attention to detail and to ensuring an amazing experience every time - in a relaxed, fun, light-hearted and congenial atmosphere. We always learn a lot and come away ready for more. We've fished everywhere, and with many many people over the years. Andy Bennett and Backcountry Angler are in a class all by themselves. After each visit, my dad and I call it the trip of a lifetime - and each year we come back to do it all again!

Nine years ago, I made my first trip to Five Rivers Lodge. I chose the lodge in large-part because…read moreof the fantastic selection of fishing opportunities. I'm going back in June, which will be my 10th consecutive year staying at this lodge. My reasons for going back year-after-year are now numerous. The fishing is consistently beyond comparison - the guides are the best in Southwest Montana; the large, nicely appointed, double occupancy guest rooms are cleverly separated by a step down and partial height partition wall, which provides a nice separation between roommates; the food is superb - gourmet quality and plentiful; and Jay and Mary, the lodge owners, are the nicest, most charming hosts you could ever hope for! Five Rivers Lodge is operated as a well-oiled machine, catering to the guest's needs and special requirements - all of which combine to make a stay at Five Rivers Lodge a memorable, rewarding experience. It's no wonder that it is frequented by so many known fly fishing greats. I highly recommend this lodge!

During our two hour ride with Jody and Keith, our running joke was to say things like, "Views too…read moremajestic: one star," or "Guide likes to make jokes: one star." This was a really fantastic experience that I think may become a tradition with my family. Jody, Keith, and all the horses (even Spike, who was kind of a pill) were a real pleasure to interact with during our visit. The ride itself was a delight. Sure, I was sore afterward, but that's to be expected. Consider going to any of Montana's hot springs to recover afterward. If you're visiting in the summer, I do suggest scheduling a ride in the morning, as it's never too hot at 9AM.

The food was great and the service across the board was exemplary. And needless to say the fishing experience was topline with super experienced guides David Kern and Isaac Corman. The true test of an experience, however, comes when one sees how management deals with an issue. Our issue was that the air conditioning broke and the first night the room was unbearably hot. They had an AC team come in and although they couldn't fix the unit while we were there, they had a portable unit installed to take care of the immediate issue. And more importantly, Manu, the manager, worked to reach an acceptable arrangement to cover our discomfort. Overall - I would definitely return and recommend for others to come see what they have to offer.

I've never fly fished in my life (TBH, I rarely even FISH). So when I learned our 2022 corporate…read moreleadership trip would be a 3-night fly fishing excursion on Montana's Madison River, I was honestly skeptical. But not did I learn how to cast a fly (and land a Trout!), but my visit to Madison Valley Ranch ended up being one of the best trips I've ever taken. From the moment you walk in the door, the ranch rolls out the red carpet. After being welcomed with a cold draft beer and tour of the property, we settled into our very comfortable guest rooms to unwind before dinner. Whether you plan to fly fish or not, the entire ranch is designed to make you feel at ease, and at home -- from the incredible back porch views to the outrageously good dishes served up at every meal. Manu and her team take customer service to a new level, from equipping you for an incredible day on the river to selecting the perfect bottle of Cabernet to pair with your dinner. No detail is too small for them, and no request goes unmet. The accommodations are as comfortable as any 4-star hotel, the meals as delicious as any gourmet restaurant, and the views as beautiful as a slice of heaven. And with ample meeting space for corporate groups, its the perfect setting for a team-building escape. I simply can't say enough about Madison Valley Ranch -- whether you're an experienced fisherman or just learning to cast a fly, it's hard to imagine a better place in America to put your rod into the river.

To say that we found absolutely nothing worthy of 'outlet price' is a massive understatement.
