A FEW KIND WORDS

Amazing Outfitter

What an amazing outfitter with world class caribou hunting! From the onset Justin and Dean communicated with my group about a fantastic hunt and they delivered a world class hunt! I want to thank the Deep Country Lodge team for the great hunting, accommodations, the fantastic food and their hospitality!

We really enjoyed the last night and the honorary Newfoundlander Screecher Ceremony!! I’ve traveled the world hunting and I’m so glad that I had the opportunity to hunt at Deep Country Lodge and I’m looking forward to hunting with them again!!!

Passion for Hunting

I just want to take a moment to share my recent experience with Deep Country Lodge. I could see right away when I first met them at the SCI convention the passion in their hunting team. Dean and Justin explained their hunts and were very accommodating in scheduling my two sons and I into their helicopter hunt schedule. All paperwork and gear lists were seamlessly handled in the following months. The arrival and shuttles to and from the airport are super efficient as well. Its just like you have been there many times!

Now the helicopter ride to camp is a special treat all its own, but when it touches down and you see the lodge built in the back country. Wow! Nothing is spared. Satellite internet service, chef prepared meals, full laundry service along with a friendly inviting staff! Don’t plan on loosing any weight on this trip! Their knowledgeable guides each had their own style of hunting based on your pursuit. Game are plentiful but its hunting, so be prepared to pick thru a few animals before making your stalks. They keep all their equipment well maintained and after the harvest game is processed in a cutting/ freezing facility as good as any Stateside. They also take care when prepping antlers/ capes and even had our trophies shipped to a local taxidermist after the hunt! All in all one of the best run operations I have ever hunted with! It filled my Woodland Caribou tag and checked of #27 on my Superslam list! My two sons also harvested mature bull Moose and a bonus Black Bear! Can’t beat this place for a multi species hunt!

I would recommend you get in contact soon, as their hunts book up fast and far in advance. Thanks again Justin and Dean!

A Joy To Hunt With

I booked an archery Caribou/Moose hunt with Deep Country before the COVID lockdowns and after some delay, I was able to go on my hunt in 2022. This is a small family run operation with father Dean running the logistics and son Justin the lead guide/camp manager. Dean was very accommodating during the booking and scheduling process, intent on maximizing my experience and needs as an archery hunter. I drove into Canada from Maine and flew from Halifax to St John’s. Myself and the 3 other incoming Moose hunters overnighted in St John’s in a comfortable hotel near the airport. The hotel is accustomed to hunters coming in and out and will store gear and put meat/cape in their freezer on the return trip.

Our group was met early the following morning for a drive to the helicopter base. The helicopter ride to the base camp was spectacular with lots of game spotted including Bear, Moose and Woodland Caribou. The guides were young and enthusiastic and a joy to hunt with and dinners were very entertaining with colorful stories. The food was excellent with hearty meals for breakfast and dinner. Sandwiches and snacks were provided for days out in the bush. Hunting was primarily done from 4 wheelers and ATV’s. The terrain is rolling hills and not particularly physically challenging so hunters with some limitations can still be successful. During my hunt we looked over lots of Caribou every day with a number of great stags spotted. I was fortunate to take a solid Stag mid way through the hunt. The other hunters in camp had a great hunt with several taking nice bulls. The new lodge was an excellent base camp, very comfortable and had all the comforts of home.

Unfortunately we had to cut our hunt short due to a hurricane that made direct hit on the area. Despite this Dean and Justin were able to get us out of camp and safely on to our flights before it hit – just another example of the personalized service they provide. I recommend this hunt without reservation.

Exceeded All Expecations

Rarely does a hunting trip exceed expectations, but that’s exactly what I experienced on my October 2022 adventure in Newfoundland with Deep Country Lodge. Another hunter and I had a relatively short drive to the airport where we were whisked onto a helicopter for the trip to camp. The word “camp” didn’t do our home away from home justice. There was a full-blown lodge with all the amenities awaiting us.

After a wonderful home-cooked meal, I set out hunting with my guide, Nate. We traveled established trails on a four-wheeler and were able to cover a lot of ground. My word, there were a lot of woodland caribou in the area. I was going to be choosy but an absolute monster appeared before me on the first day! The moose hunting was also a thrill. Every day we would work our way to a remote location and start calling. There’s nothing like a big bull stepping out of the thickets and screaming back at you.

Everything went without a hitch and the comfortable lodge made this a very enjoyable experience.

Nothing Short of Amazing

I am writing to express my experience with my recent hunt at your camp. I personally have hunted around the world with many outfitters. Some experiences have been nothing short of amazing – and this hunt was one of those that stands out from the majority of the others. The food, lodging and staff were top notch. Having guides and services like you provided during our stay and engaging with clients – meet, or exceed expectations and solidifies the experience overall.

Its always a great concern of mine when traveling to different countries and off the grid, I wonder what will it be like and is everything going to be organized. Justin personally made it a point to check with us during our trip, and to ask if there was anything we needed and how things were going.

I personally recommend if you’re wanting to hunt Woodland Caribou, Moose or Black Bear in Newfoundland, there is no better choice than Deep Country Lodge. I’m looking forward to another hunt in the near future with them myself

Truly Unbelievable

Deep Country Lodge in Newfoundland is a place every outdoor person needs to experience. Dean Crocker was so friendly and knowledgeable on the planning and booking stages of my trip. I traveled by truck from Prince Edward Island through Cape Breton then by ferry to Newfoundland. My drive was one of the most beautiful I have experienced. The scenery was breathtaking. I was met by Dean himself in town and followed him to the Lodge. The lodge is awesome, it is set in the wilderness with private access. It is incredible and very large with beautiful trophies and pictures of past hunts.

The meals were amazing. Breakfast, day lunches and of course supper with everyone were awesome. So much fun to sit around and hear each clients day’s adventures . These Guides have been together for over 35 years and it shows and you feel it. Pretty impressive that Dean’s father, mother and uncle took time to spend with us. Three generations of guides in one room. The actual hunt itself was like a dream. Both Dean and his son Justin Crocker took me out. We left hours before dawn. By truck then by agro glassing well over 170 Caribou. We seen many bulls fighting. Over 7.5 miles away they seen a monster bull . After stalking for 2 hours we came within 70 yards of a bull of a lifetime. Justin and Dean convinced me to pass on it and continue the stalk. While leaving that bull behind I had a strange rush of emotions come over me. As I walked behind my guides I knew right then and there I was in for a Woodland Caribou beyond my wildest dreams. Justin got me into 130 yards with 70 other Caribou working towards us. The bulls were truly unbelievable. After the harvest took place, Justin was as a pro. An incredible photographer, skinner and butcher. The meat was incredible and so very well done. Dean and Justin gave me a hunt of a lifetime, and a friendship that will also last a lifetime. I am a professional guide myself for 40 years for Bluefin tuna, on PEI. I highly recommend Deep Country Lodge and I am already making future plans with them .

Super Experience

What an amazing hunt. From the time we booked until the time we left, everything we needed to know was answered by Dean. Great lodging, super meals, qualified guides that work hard, great inventory of animals and success. Four of us spent the week and harvest four record book caribou, one moose and one bear and could have done more had we had the tags. Super experience!

Highly Recommend

I hunted Woodland Caribou with Dean Crocker of Deep Country Lodge. This Caribou was scored 370 4/8, which makes the B&C book. The outfitter told me it was one of the best Caribou taken there. The lodge is extremely comfortable and the food was great. I highly recommend this outfitter to other hunters needing a Woodland Caribou or Canada Moose.

Awesome Adventure

Dean, I want to thank you, your mom and dad and all your guides for an awesome adventure! I had the best hunt ever being up in Newfoundland! The country is big and beautiful. When I was on a bear bait stand and that very nice bull moose came by, I couldn’t pass him up especially since I had my muzzleloader. What a thrill to harvest an animal that big with my muzzleloader. The caribou hunt was totally awesome. The 3 hr Argo ride back was an adventure in itself! Lots of caribou and to harvest a B&C book woodland caribou was just incredible! Dean, you have the game and know where they are. Everyone gave 110% effort so all the hunters had an opportunity to be successful. The home cooked meals were delicious and excellent. You make everyone feel rite at home! Thanks again for an awesome adventure and I will be back.

Remarkable Trip

What can I say, Newfoundland pays off again in a HUGE way!! When the Newfoundland Labrador Outfitters Association contacted me earlier this spring and offered to help our EDGE TV crew secure a Woodland Caribou hunt on the Island we were astatic! Through the process we were able to select an outfitter and after careful research, many telephone conversations, I knew that Deep Country Lodge was the perfect fit for me. With an historically proven track record of monster Woodland and numerous happy reference clients, we jumped all over this opportunity.

Owner /Operator Dean Crocker leaves no stone un-turned! He delivered on every aspect of this adventure, from the cozy accommodations, complete with numerous amenities right down to boot dryers:) this place has it going on!! The food was “off the hook” and in true Newfoundland fashion, all home cooked and plenty of it. The hunt itself from start to finish was super cool!! On the first day in Caribou country I saw upwards of 60 to 70 animals, 4 of which I was sure to be of trophy quality! With the help of the guide we made a day one play on a giant Caribou that nearly ended my hunt early!

The following day we snuck back into the same area and within a few hours I was standing over what will soon be the #8 or #9 all time, B&C Woodland Caribou!! A remarkable trip is an understatement and anyone that has ever dreamed of hunting this specie of caribou, dreamed of hunting moose or even black bear in one of the most majestic places on earth……then I urge you to check out Deep Country Lodge and the wonders that Newfoundland has to offer.
