Great stay at Mallard/Duck lodge. Very comfortable and lovely location. Each lodge has its own swim so you dont have to go far with all your fishing gear. The lodge and whole site is a credit to Carol & Phil who were very welcoming and helpful. Particularly enjoyed the gas BBQ as they are not always included in a lodge stay. It was very clean Read moretoo, as was the lodge. We would love to go back and would definitely recommend it. Hide
