Map & Owner's Profile
Smith River Vacation Home & Fishing Guide Service
Year Purchased: 1990
Why the Owner Chose Gasquet
This is not like a lot of California. We have the ocean, the giant redwoods, the cleanest and clearest river in the U.S., the Smith of course. Our county of Del Norte has only 25,000 people and no polution.
Owner's Map of Gasquet
Thats me on the left. I have been fishing the Smith river since 1980 and two buddies and I purchased one acre of land on the Smith in 1989. In 1990 we purchased a new double wide modular unit and placed on this acre. I grew up in the Bay Area and worked 30 years for AT&T. My wife and I met in high school and have been married for 48 years. I took early retirement in 1991 and moved to Crescent City in 1992. My four kids are grown and we now have eight grand kids. Upon moving here I got into the fishing business, owning a tackle store in Brookings, Or. In 1998 I started guiding for Salmon and Steeelhead on the local rivers, mostly the Smith. Except for my guiding I am now retired from all other ventures. During the off season we garden, travel with our 32Ft trailer, fish and visit kids/grand kids.

Everything was great as always. The place looks nice with extra touches that have been added. I've been renting for 12 + years and have enjoyed every minute here.

What a fine job you do! It has been a lovely stay here, yes it's beautiful, but your cabin is also very well stocked and incredibly well maintained. It felt quite luxurious to sit on the deck & drink margaritas. Thank you so much. Mary and the girls.

Brother visiting from Colorado, new parents with 4 month old baby girl. Had a full house, but the place accomodated us quite well. Made several trips to the coast and south to Eureka. Lots to do and see. We could be content just staying here & doing nothing! Keep an eye out for a pair of lumbering & silly otters that go past the house in the river turning rocks and feeding on frogs or crawdads. Caught a nice brook trout (10-12in.) in the hole 200 yards downstream, having that for lunch. Any way many thanks BMH Lodge and farewell! Jesse & Family

We had the wonderful opportunity to end our summer fun with a two day stay at this cabin. We spent our days catching frogs, playing cards, fishing, swimming, sun set dinners and days of lounging on the back deck. The cabin was cozy with all that we needed. Hope to be back many more times. Thank you for renting us your wonderful escape.

Jerry, We have rented many different cabins around Gasquet & Crescent City for the past 12 years. This place is very comfortable for our family of five. We like the rustic feel. The river view is super, we saw three hooded mergansers and babys feeding on the water and under water. Shannon saw a very cool wood pecker going into the fir tree with no top and a big nest hole between the deck and the river by the BBQ. The BBQ was very good, we did ribs, chicken, burgers, very quickley and fed some extended family for great diners. We had some good river time. We will be going home tired, but had a great time. We hope to be calling you to reserve next year at this time. Thanks again, Glen, Shannon, Nathan, Morgan & Colton.

Thanks Jerry, we had a really good time. That's a beautiful area! We all are teachers and that was our first week of vacation. We just wanted to relax, it was perfect. Thanks again, Joan
