We are pleased to include a few testimonials from guests who have had the opportunity to fish and stay at Camp Bonaventure.

“Camp Bonaventure is not only the finest sporting lodge on the Gaspé Peninsula, it is one of the finest destination lodges wherever salmon swim. Its situation on the world’s clearest salmon river only adds to its singular appeal.”
Topher Brown, Professional Fly Angler, Fly Caster, Instructor & Author

“Although this is a brand new world-class lodge, it truly has soul. From the immaculately manicured surroundings in the middle of wilderness, to the state of the art construction, I couldn't have imagined a place as wonderful as this. They have thought of every detail, and the service is executed to perfection. And of course, the fishing is second to none! It’s an angler’s paradise - huge fish and clear water.”
Henrik Mortensen, Professional Fly Angler, Fly Caster, Designer, Instructor & Author

“When we go to inspect operations for an Orvis Endorsement we look for three core things:
1) Quality of the Physical Plant – Lodge, boats, etc…
2) Quality of the Personnel
3) Quality of the Fishery.
After my visit to Camp Bonaventure I left with a great feeling about each of those three things but what I was most struck with was the quality of the guide staff and their commitment to ensuring the customer has a great experience. Great guides can be a challenge in Canada, where the guiding traditions are historically different than in the United States, I would rate Glenn’s guides as being among the best I have spent time on the water with.”
Scott McEnaney, Eastern Director of Orvis Endorsed Lodge, Outfitter, Expedition, & Guide Services

“I know when I’m having a perfect stay somewhere when, one day after I’ve arrived, I have to struggle to remember the details of my “real” life back home. You can expect this to happen to you at Camp Bonaventure.  Once you arrive, everything is right. The days will slide by as a meld of world-class fishing, spectacular scenery, excellent food, and the companionship of some of the finest and most knowledgeable salmon guides in the business. You will sight cast to big salmon, learn from your guides, eat and sleep perfectly, and want for nothing - except to add an extra day to your stay. All right, maybe two days…”
Tom Zemianek, Orvis Rod & Tackle

“In my profession I have fished numerous salmon lodges around the world from Russia and Norway to Iceland and I believe that Camp Bonaventure is one of the most professional outfits I have fished with. Their level of service, guiding and accommodation are second to none. The attention to detail of Glenn and his team puts them on a new level in the fishing community and I can sum up my experiences at these lodges in one word..... refined.”
Peter McLeod, Aardvark McLeod International Fly Fishing Specialists
