Full description and what we offer
Missouri Hunting & Fishing Adventures operates three full-service lodges built around managed game properties in the heart of the Ozarks. Owner Bill Shumake and Royal Peterson designed the operation with professional-grade infrastructure: vast food plots, top-of-the-line blinds and stands, and carefully managed deer herds that consistently produce trophy-size bucks.
What makes them different: They accommodate everyone from solo hunters to corporate retreats of up to 20 people at Deer Creek Lodge. Three lodges mean three different price points and experience levels—Elite, Premium, and custom packages.
The Ozarks has a growing whitetail population that thrives in wooded areas and farmlands. Open timber and scrub oak locations provide productive hunting during both firearms and bow seasons.

"The magic of spring is hard to beat with the majestic sound of the Ozark gobbler and numerous limits of several species per day. Summer and fall patterns become more predictable because of stability in the water level."
