A Boutique Fly Fishing Lodge in the Heart of Patagonia
Tucked away in the heart of Argentine Patagonia, at the gateway to Lanín National Park and beneath the iconic Lanín Volcano, Spring Creek Lodge is one of those rare places that define a destination.
Here, crystal-clear rivers flow through untouched landscapes, the skies stretch endlessly, and silence becomes a luxury. Spring Creek Lodge is not simply a place to stay—it is a private sanctuary designed for fly fishers, nature lovers, couples, and travelers seeking authenticity, intimacy, and the refined calm of Patagonia.

Why Spring Creek Lodge Is Different
Spring Creek Lodge is widely regarded as one of the most iconic fly fishing lodges in Argentina—and for good reason.
Exclusive Private Rivers
The lodge offers access to several private rivers and streams within the property, allowing guests to fish wild brown and rainbow trout without fishing pressure. Its privileged location also provides access to legendary rivers such as the Chimehuin, Malleo, and Collón Curá, internationally recognized for world-class trout fishing.
Expert Fly Fishing Guides
The guiding team is made up of highly experienced professionals with decades of local knowledge. They read the water, understand Patagonia’s shifting conditions, and guide with calm precision—enhancing the experience without overwhelming it.
A True Digital Detox
There are no crowds, no noise, and no rush. Days unfold to the rhythm of water, wind, and forest, creating an atmosphere of deep disconnection and presence.

Accommodation with a Patagonian Soul
Spring Creek Lodge offers private rooms within beautifully designed cabins that combine rustic elegance with modern comfort.
Each cabin features:
Two queen bedrooms
A shared bathroom
A comfortable living area
An outdoor deck overlooking forests, streams, or lagoons
This layout ensures privacy while encouraging shared moments in the lodge’s common spaces.
Each morning, before breakfast, a member of the team lights the fireplace in the cabin and leaves a fresh pot of coffee—an understated ritual that defines the experience.

Rooms with Unforgettable Views
Whether facing the majestic Lanín Volcano, nearby streams, or tranquil lagoons, every cabin is surrounded by native forest. Wherever the eye rests, Patagonia delivers a natural spectacle that changes with the light and the seasons.
Fireplace Suites
Ideal for couples and romantic escapes, offering warmth, intimacy, and quiet evenings by the fire.
Spacious Family Lodges
Designed for small groups or families traveling for fly fishing or nature-based experiences.
Across all categories, the atmosphere remains consistent: warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully Patagonian.

Fly Fishing at Spring Creek Lodge
For anglers, Spring Creek Lodge is a destination in itself.
Fishing here is not about technical difficulty—it is about emotion, connection, and immersion.
• Wild brown, rainbow, and brook trout
• Gentle fishing walks through forests and open meadows
• Access to nearby lakes for slower-paced days
• Personalized programs for beginners and advanced anglers
Guides accompany rather than interrupt, allowing each guest to experience the water at their own pace.

Beyond Fishing: Nature, Gastronomy, and Stillness
Spring Creek Lodge is as much about nature as it is about fly fishing.
Guests can explore walking trails through prairies and forests, enjoy photography during Patagonia’s dramatic sunrises and sunsets, or gather around evening bonfires under a sky dense with stars.
The culinary experience is equally memorable, featuring Patagonian flavors, homemade recipes, smoked meats, lamb, artisanal breads, and carefully selected Argentine wines—all served in an atmosphere of relaxed elegance.

Best Time to Visit Spring Creek Lodge
November – December: Clear waters and active trout
January – February: Ideal weather and long daylight hours

Each month offers a distinct experience, which is why many guests return year after year.
