Help!!! easy hunting trip

[fudge]

I would like to take my grandpa hunting one last time this fall. He is the man that introduced me to hunting and has not been able to go as he has cancer. Well this year I promised myself that I would take him and have talked to him about it and he is very excited. My problem is that when I go I take a tent with a few friends and the trucks and sleep in the back. I need something so he will be comfortable and able to get around.. Prob a cabin with heat so he is comfortable any ideas???? We are looking to go for a week and to see him get something one last time...but its all about the time spent wiht him 4 me... hope you can help thanks any resorts that are hunter friendly????

:-D Awwww, that's such a cool idea Fudge! I'd google fishing resorts and find some cabins near where you want to hunt, they're generally pretty reasonable, and he might be into a bit of fishing in the afternoon. Most of those places have aluminum boats with motors for rent.

We are looking at the okanogan I have a boat that I would take....

Bear/Lambly Lake and Headwaters Lakes both have cabin rentals not far from decent mulie hunting, the first is west of Kelowna, the second west of Peachland. Dee Lake Resort east of Winfield also has cabins for rent, in good deer country.

Chataway Thataway, Thataway Chataway, to Chataway Lakes out of Merrit then Drive those roads with his favorite tunes in the background. Go during any buck season, or put him in for LEH does too. Chataway rents out Cabins, as some one said Tunkwa Lake Resort.

Good luck to you and gramps. Sounds cool and a fun thing to do.

An admirable venture on your part.

You didn't mention what species you're after.
If you're not stuck on staying closer to home, there's lots of lakeside cabin resorts that are very hunter friendly (with added decent fishing) around Prince George area - 1 to 2 hr. drive from city depending on where they are.
They are off the well beaten track but still easy to access.
Approx. 10 hr. drive from LML depending on how hard you push.
Moose, black bears and upland birds in abundance, fair deer hunting, decent fishing in the lakes and steams.
As good as it gets in terms of game sightings, etc. All zones are on LEH for mature bull moose, odds of success in draw are usually about 3 to 6 : 1. Open season on immies/two-tiners.
A bull LEH draw pretty much guarantees success. Apply for "shared" LEH hunt and it improves your odds of a drawing considerably.
Last 10 days of Sept into early Oct. is best time. Truck, walk, quad, spot & stalk, calling, lots of lakes, swamps, cut blocks, etc. etc.
Most of the cabins/resorts are reasonably priced and set up to accommodate and welcome hunters, hangin' poles, etc., different sizes of cabins offered, and have RV & tent sites as well. Easy access with pickups, quads and small boats extend your hunting areas even more.

Good luck with your plans.

The whole area around Chataway Lakes has been stripped of trees cause of the beetle kill. Not much for game seen around there now.

yup no trees left up there any more, we were up there for any buck season this year and seen nothing, the hole area is tree less, we went to calling lake to no trees there any more nether.

You can try the Christian Vally...Double "E" Cabins. Or is it Triple "E" ?
A former sponsor on this site is located near Rock Creek.
How about a hotel and you go from there ?
Its nice of you to take him out.
I hope he gets to see lots of deer and takes a nice buck.
Good luck.

http://www.mckinneycreek.com/ is a good choice for comfort and fairly easy hunting, in the Okanagan. Not the worlds best hunting, but there are deer, moose, and elk there, access is good, and the cabin (rustic house really) is nice. Added bonus is the WT doe season, the place is swimming with em.

It's a great thing to enjoy with a person, especially when it will mean so much to both of you. I wish I had of had the same chance with my Dad.

Good luck.

Thanks MulieMadness...I could not remember. :-?

x 2,..close for you only a few hours drive for gramps.

[hunter1947]

You can take a big tent or trailer this would be comfortable surroundings for him ,or motel it and go out every day in the bush to hunt ???.

Loon Lake.. white moose resort.. the old coupld have lived there for 25 years. Best fishing lake ever and tons of terrain to hunt. I think its $20 / person / night for the 2 bedroom cabins.

[moose2]

Not sure how this one is , would probably be good if you could draw a moose tag ( 5 -13 C ). Grouse , bears and mule deer and afternoon fishing are a bonus.

For okanagan fudge there is Nicklen lake lodge some nice areas around there to go plus a nice lake to wake up to in the morning

Well my cabins at Red are perfect for what you describe, pop a roast in the oven, take Gramps 5 minutes from the house, hunt deer, back at sundown for a glass of vino and a great meal.

Even better toss a rod of the dock and hammer a trophy brook trout that tastes like a sockeye salmon.

I wish I could tell you that spring has sprung at my cabins, I am really looking forward to getting out on my first bear hunt. BUT as you can tell from some of the recent posts on my facebook page, the ice is still thick. The good news is that some real fat brooks have been taken!!! Remember to ad me as a like if your own Facebook!!!
