Members SamC489 Posted July 1, 2008 Members Share Posted July 1, 2008 Ok, so we (Dad and friends) usually go to Charlie's or Gene's on the Norfork, but my dad went last week and said it is totally messed up and they aren't going to stop letting water out of the lake for a while. We were planning on going Aug. 8 for my mom's b-day, but now we are going to look for somewhere else. We fly fish and like to wade rather than fish out of a boat. Are there any cabins that will be open the weekend of Aug. 8 where we can do this. Closer to Branson is a plus so my mom can antique or whatever. (she doesn't fish) Any help is greatly appreciated.

Brian Wise Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hey Sam, River of Life has cabins...nice cabins Click Here for River of Life Farm Lodging Page You can call them at (417)261-7777 to see what cabins are open for the weekend you are looking to come. Tell them I sent ya. We are quite a ways from Branson but there are antique shops, shopping, movies, etc in the West Plains area about 20 minutes away.

flyfishmaster Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Sam, Brian is right on the money with River of Life Farm (ROLF). If you want to be away from it all, see if one of the tree top cabins are avalible. My wife and I had a great time down there 3 years ago. Myron (the owner) and his family are great to work with. I was able to wade fish around ROLF with out any problem. If you do go, make sure you contact Brian so he can inform you or hook you up with the hot flies. Later, FFM Woo Hoo Fish On!!

Members SamC489 Posted July 2, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 2, 2008 Thanks guys, I've read lots of good things about ROLF. I was also looking at RockBridge trout resort, but there are no prices on their site though, anyone know how expensive it is? Are there any others anyone knows of?

Gavin Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Wife and I spent the evening at Rockbridge last week..The Motel units run around $100 a night. They are clean, but nothing spectacular....fishing is $15 bucks a head, catch & keep only and you pay extra for what you catch. It can get pricey if you get greedy. The average sized fish looked like they were 15-17" with a few large fish in the 24-25" range. Drinks prices at bar were fair and their restaurant is probably one of the best in the area. Make a reservation...Dinner entrees are nothing fancy but they were well prepared, most ran $20-25. Pretty decent wine list and the prices werent too bad.. You could order a $500 bottle of wine if you wanted too, but there were plenty of decent selections in the $25-40 a bottle range. Nice place, nice people, well worth a visit.
