Comments:
"I have been a repeat guest now at the Campbell River Lodge for years and consider myself lucky enough to be one of the most
successful fishermen in the Lodge's history! Over the years, the Lodge has looked after my family and friends as well as myself so well that there's no question that I would
return again and again. I can honestly consider myself to be an "Ambassador" for the Lodge and one of the Lodge's longest
yearly repeat customers. (They must be doing something right!) I look forward to returning to the Campbell River Lodge again
this year (the 19th consecutive) so I can carry on the tradition of fun times and great fishing!"
