Here is a tiny sampling of the hundreds of comments that have been written in our guest books since the first entry on June 7, 1992. It is such a pleasure for us to read through these books and remember some of the people we've met and the experiences we've shared with them. Some of the comments fill several pages!
Aug 2008: "Once again an incredible adventure for my whole family! ... It's long getting here but always worth it. It's some kind of paradise! Thanks for the memories." Linda P.

 

June 2007: "My fourth trip to this fishing utopia and the fishing and hospitality just keeps getting better & better (one would think it would be impossible). My friends and I have fished all over the world and I can honestly say that it just doesn't get any better than here at Grizzly Creek!!" Jack S.

 

June 2005: "This was an awesome experience, exceeding my expectations by a long shot. Thanks you so much for your hospitality and generosity. I admire what you have built here at Grizzly Creek. I am especially impressed by your stewardship of the lake and the fish. My friends are still marvelling at the pictures... wondering how this can be done on a fly rod." Joe V., Loretto, MN.

 

June 2003: "Allison S. - from probably your most reluctant visitor to a Yukon believer. It was a beautiful trip with wonderful memories. The hike to Jacks Lake & the trip up the river to the upper lake - unbelieveable!

 

June 2003: "Fishing for 56 years. This is the peak. So fun. I've converted from spinning to fly. Everything - the fishing action, the travel, the scenery is so good; but pales in the light of the company and hospitality." Chuck G.

 

June 2000: "Just when you think it can't get any better - it does! Thank you Doug & Carol for your hospitality and your willingness to share this magnificent place. And thank you Dave and Reggie for your warmth, patience with a 'city boy' and yhour great cooking (yes - I mean both of you!)." Art G.

 

June 1999: "I have fished in many states, provinces and countries - none have the consistent quality of Grizzly Creek and its hosts. Great place, great fishing & great people." Jack S.

 

September 1998: "Now we know why Dave & Reg love Grizzly Creek! There can't be a more beautiful and peaceful place on earth! Thanks for the experience." Ricky & Ginger W.

 

June 1998: "GCL is truly a utopia in the wilderness - great fishing and great friends. Fly fishing for Northerns was a blast." Keith F., Minneapolis MN

 

June 1996: "This is a trip I hesitated to take. I am so thankful that I did. It took me 73 years to catch fish like these. A 43.5" pike & a 45" trout. Lake fishing of a lifetime. There is a place in heaven for people lilke Doug who are trying to preserve their little corner of the world for others to enjoy. Thanks to all for making this a week to remember. Doug - Reggie - Dave - Love you all." Jerry S., Minneapolis MN

 

July 1995: "The most beautiful place in the world, hosted by the most beautiful people in the world! (20" grayling!)" Brian P.
