Taylor River Lodge Signature Expedition
Inquire below and a Ball and Buck travel agent will contact you directly.
Overview
Join Ball and Buck for an angling experience you won’t forget at Taylor River Lodge in Colorado. Tucked away in the awe-inspiring Taylor Canyon, Taylor River Lodge prides itself on being an exclusive summer camp for the discerning traveler. Think archery and angling – teepee and bathhouse – game room and riverfront lounge – s’mores and farm-to-table dining. It’s a place for retreating, re-creating and connecting. Guests will leave their technology at home, relinquish their everyday life and fully embrace the Colorado “off-the-grid” mentality.
The Gunnison Valley is an iconic North American fishing destination for both the die-hard angler or the first timer. Our guides will take you fishing on the Taylor River, the Gunnison River and other classic trout waters. Taylor River Lodge has a stocked casting pond, perfect for beginners and intermediate anglers looking to work on their technique. Taylor River, located out our back door, is famous for its large tailwater fish. Along our mile of semi-private water, you will find fast runs, deep pockets and large boulders within a scenic canyon setting. The remote location means low pressure and high catch rates.
The Gunnison River is only a 15-minute drive from the Lodge. The “Gunny” offers long riffles, deep pools and long, slow drifts. Whether float fishing in a drift boat or wading along the banks, this an exceptional river that offers a fantastic experience for anglers of all capabilities. The Gunnison River provides the best chance of catching a large quantity of big fish. In addition to the two classic rivers, we take clients fishing on lesser known waters in the Gunnison Valley. We have access to a private two mile stretch on Tomichi Creek offering opportunities for large wild brown trout, and we can organize an array of additional options ranging from high alpine lakes to low willow creeks.
Beyond fishing, this area is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream. Other summer season activities include hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, stand up paddle boarding, rafting and horseback riding.
