Reviewer Comments: Peaceable Hill is a pheasant hunting operation in the Champlain Valley of Vermont. I've hunted in Nebraska several times and honestly the cover and terrain here is very similar. They have open fields, food plots and natural upland cover. They raise and release their own birds and we've hunted here several times over the past few years and have always had a great hunt. I live in Vermont so I do not stay over, but there are B&B's close by or hotels in Rutland about an hour away. I have always hired a guide because I do not have a dog, but you can bring your own dogs and hunt unguided. I had a guide (Steve) who has pointing dogs and it was fantastic. They have three different farms and hunt hundreds of acres so it's not crowded at all and there are lots of birds. This year we did a hunt in October 2009 and in March this year. The fall had more birds around I guess because the daily releases are more, but we found plenty of birds in March too. I intend to go back again this fall. Glenn and Judy are great people who make things right as they say and the guides and dogs they provide are first class all the way.

Reviewer Comments: This is a managed hunting farm with very good year-round bird cover. I have hunted there several times and always had plenty of action. Usually we have had more bird flushes than expected. They raise their own pheasants and we have always had birds that are strong fliers. You do need a dog to effectively hunt there. Guides with pointing or flushing dogs are available for an extra fee($45?). The farm is quite large and the birds are all over so there is quite a bit of walking involved. They also have a nice warming hut and serve coffee and snacks before and after the hunts.
