Dom Costello is a consummate professional.

“His guidance is truly just that. I have fished and guided for 55 years, and I will tell you that Dom is the next generation of legendary fly fishing guides!”

Excellent experience for first-time fly fishermen.

“Two separate wade trips, and both guides (Dom and Benny) were very professional, knowledgeable, and instructive.”

Amazing experience and huge fish!

“I took my son for his first fly fishing trip, and Pat took the time to teach him, staying with him until he landed a big one.”

Beautiful Mountain Resort

“Amazing, beautiful, and welcoming resort. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Our whole family had a great time sledding down their hill and enjoying the resort amenities. The downtown area is so quaint. We look forward to coming back in the summer/fall. ”
