Ian Mills of England, took two-twelve hour flights just to come for a fish in beautiful New Zealand! River Haven's Head Guide, Doug Corbett,, put him into several brown trout, all a nice four to five pound! Then to add to the fun, they went hunting, again with great success! In two days, he bagged a red deer, and two wild goats! Hope you enjoyed the back steaks ian!!

Scott and Leya are excellent hosts, in a wonderfully maintained and quality built world class fishing lodge. My son Zack and I took a week and stayed at River Haven. We were limited by my son's short time away, so our experience although excellent, was too short. Take time to be with River Haven more than a week. You'll be glad you did. Even though this was my son's first fly fishing experience, our guide was able to get him on a fish and was able to experience New Zealand Brown Trout on the fly rod. EXCITING!! The welcoming feeling, accommodations, atmosphere, meals, professional fishing guide service, and overall experience was simply outstanding for a father-son trip, or for anyone. I highly recommend the River Haven experience to anyone looking for a great fishing experience in as beautiful a landscape and with as friendly hosts as you will find anywhere. I look forward to visiting my friends Scott and Leya again soon.
