The South Fork of the Snake River

The Lodge at Palisades Creek fronts one of America’s great fly fishing

rivers, the South Fork of the Snake River. Widely regarded as the finest

native cutthroat trout river in the nation, the South Fork’s crystal clear

waters are also filled with rainbows, cutbows and prodigious brown trout.

In addition to a fish population estimated at 7,000 fish per mile, local

wildlife includes moose, elk, deer, river otter and even the occasional

grizzly bear. For the ornithologists among us, our valley is home to 126

bird species, which include trumpeter swans, ospreys, sandhill cranes,

blue herons and Idaho’s largest population of bald eagles.

Fed by Idaho and Wyoming alpine streams, the river runs through

tranquil Swan Valley with views backdropped by the Palisades of the

Snake River Range. The Snake River ecosystem is formed by deep

canyons, pounding waterfalls, islands and flood plains, all framed by

carpets of wildflowers and sprawling cottonwood forests. We look

forward to sharing this special river with you.

I sincerely

appreciate you

making sure

my son’s first

experience on

the river and at

the Lodge was

a great one.

He can’t stop

talking about

our next visit,

and as you

know, that is

music to my

ears. I have

already booked

our trip for

next year.

AccommodationsCome and relax in our luxuriously appointed rustic cottages, where you’ll

sleep soundly to the peaceful ebb and flow of the South Fork just steps from

your door. Each of our nine charmingly furnished cottages sleeps two and is

completely self contained and secluded on our park-like landscaped grounds,

yet all within easy walking distance to the lodge, fly shop and Liar’s Den.

Perfect for families or small groups, the South Fork House is a spacious

two-bedroom, two-bath A-frame cabin that sits directly on the South Fork

with an incredible private deck overhanging the river.

Lodge rates include all meals, beverages and amenities, as well as

favorable rates for guided fishing. Guests also enjoy the use of the Liar’s

Den, which is located beneath our Orvis-endorsed fly shop. Featuring a

full bar, library and gaming tables, this space can easily accommodate

groups, business conferences and special events.

FishingOur guides, who all reside in

the area and live to fly fish,

know how to lead and assist

you to maximize the thrills

and profound satisfaction

of the fly fishing experience

here on the South Fork of

the Snake River. The Lodge

at Palisades Creek has five

different sections of the South

Fork available for guided

fishing trips, traversing a total

of 55 miles of unparalleled

trout waters.

The South Fork is an extremely productive

fishery, hosting native Yellowstone cutthroat,

rainbow, hybrid (cutbow) and brown trout. We

often catch trout over 20 inches, but most fish

fall into the 15-17 inch range. The season starts

with nymph fishing in the early summer, then

transitions to dry fly fishing by the end of June

and through September. Throughout the summer,

generous hatches of mayflies, stoneflies and

caddis occur regularly. As the season progresses,

grasshoppers appear in great numbers along the banks. Fall offers great dry fly and

streamer fishing. This is one of our favorite times of the year with the changing leaves,

mild temperatures and wildlife galore. Whatever the season, your fishing trip will be

tailored to your ability and sense of adventure, whether floating or wading.

Food & DrinkBreakfasts served in our Cowboy Bar are a great way to start the day. In addition to

a cornucopia of healthy fresh pastries and juices, just tell us your ideal breakfast and

we’ll make it to order. Chocolate chip pancakes? Lox and bagels? No problem.

Lodge guests regularly rank our lunches as the “Best in the West.” Picnic-style

servings are cleverly prepared and sent with guests in individual coolers for their

day of fishing or hiking.

The Lodge at Palisades Creek serves hearty gourmet dinners prepared nightly and

served by the chef and his professional staff. Beautifully presented entrées are

accompanied by locally grown organic vegetables and fruits, irresistible calorific

desserts and elegant wines. We are also proud of our famous weekly barbecue,

offering homestyle cooking in a casual outdoor setting on our beautiful deck. After

dinner, stroll over to the Liar’s Den for a variety of relaxing activities and relate the

day’s tallest tales over a nightcap.

With its own private deck overlooking

the casting pond, the Liar’s Den

features a fully stocked bar that is

available to our guests at any time.

For those who need to cheer on their

favorite team, we are happy to serve

full meals in front of the satellite TV. Its

extensive library with comfy couches

and chairs also make this an ideal

space to spend relaxing moments

throughout your day or evening.

Intimate yet spacious, the Liar’s Den

can accommodate corporate groups,

gatherings and wedding receptions.

Other ActivitiesBeyond the world-class fly fishing on the

South Fork and other area trout streams,

our corner of the West offers an amazing

variety of recreational opportunities.

Right from the lodge, guests can hike,

mountain bike or ride horseback into the

mountains to take in the solitude, scenery

and wildlife.

We also offer structured and private

customized tours into nearby Yellowstone

and Grand Teton National Parks that are

sure to create memories you will treasure

for a lifetime. Scenic floats and whitewater

rafting on the Snake River in Jackson Hole

can be easily combined with a morning

or afternoon in Grand Teton National Park

or an expedition into the town of Jackson,

Wyoming, to explore its variety of quality

shops, museums, bars and restaurants.

Orvis-Endorsed Fly ShopWHAT TO BRING—

The Lodge at Palisades Creek is a full-service destination fly fishing lodge. If you

were so inclined, you could arrive with the shirt on your back and have the fishing

trip of a lifetime. As an Orvis-endorsed lodge, our on-site Orvis Fly/Tackle Shop

offers a complete line of professional gear. We will ensure that you have the

necessary items to enjoy your day on the river with the finest modern equipment

available. Our guides will provide you with our recommended flies that are freshly

tied and ready for a perfect drag-free drift.

We recommend bringing chest waders so you have the option to hop out of the

boat for wading or just getting to that curious-looking back channel. Our shop

offer waders for sale also. During the spring, fall and winter months, Capilene or

wool undergarments help insulate and wick moisture from your skin. Often during

the mid-summer months, light pants (not jeans) or shorts and sandals are fine, but

be sure to bring along some warm layers. Evenings are cool, and even during the

day, occasional rain, wind or clouds will have you reaching back to your guide for

a sweater, rain jacket or warm vest.

Summer sun reflecting off the water will make you glad to have a brimmed hat,

polarized sunglasses and waterproof sunscreen. And don’t forget your camera!
