Guest Info & FAQs

Every guest needs a valid Kansas hunting license. Waterfowl hunters also need state and federal waterfowl stamps. Licenses are available online through Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, and we'll point you in the right direction when you book.

If you cancel your booking with more than 30 days' notice before your scheduled arrival date, you are entitled to a full refund of your deposit.

We rent 12 gauge shotguns for $150 per guest on waterfowl hunts. Most guests bring their own — let us know when you book if you'd like a rental held for you.

Absolutely, and a lot of guests do. Ducks and geese in the morning, pheasant and quail in the afternoon. Let us know and we'll build the trip around it.

Our upland hunts are kid friendly and a good introduction to wild birds. Tell us who's coming and we'll set the day up accordingly.

We hunt in the weather we get — and in Kansas, some of the best days are the ugly ones. If conditions become genuinely unsafe, we'll talk through options with you directly.

Tipping your guide is customary and always appreciated, but entirely at your discretion. Contact us if you'd like guidance on what's typical.
