Species Hunted: Whitetail

Game Quality: very poor

Accommodation Quality: fair

Camp Condition: fair

Food Quality: fair

Guide Experience: fair

Other Personal Experience: fair

Overall Impression: fair

Recommend: depends, see comments

Reviewer Comments: What more can I say than 5 1/2 days to hunt and never saw a shooter in Iowa the second week of Nov. and saw less than 20 deer all week. Ernie has great farms but will put return hunters in the best places over first time hunters especially if they come in a group.really doesn't have guides, just one person that helps out on occasion. If you do go bring the following, pull up ropes, climber, bow holders, saw, towels and you will have to field dress and skin your own deer.

Reviewer Comments: how can an outfitter hunt on my dollar bill? well they did!!!! they over booked, somewhat rude to a few hunters, didn't move stands when asked to, plumbing sucked, as well as the food. great lands and I'm sure there are big bucks around. treestands where placed in good places, but placed in trees at over 30', leaning either right/left, or into the trees. this outfitter just sucked. came to find out a week after my hunt that he had gotten in trouble for helping 2 of his hunters poaching deer few years before our hunt

Reviewer Comments: Three of us hunted the second week of November 2006. The farms they have are gorgeous, we saw more deer then we thought. I saw 2 shooters, my friend saw 1, and the last friend saw none. The stands are placed in great locations, but the stands are placed in dangerous positions, and really high. There is no way of finding the stands in the dark. The food was poor, as are the accomodations, roaches, and mice found, one bathroom, with a clogged toilet. This outfitter over booked having over 11 hunters in camp with 2 guides, both the owner and his guide hunted while we where in camp. The 3 of us felt the outfitter didn't go out of his way for us like he said he would, we really felt like we where the outcasts. It was too bad it happen, I would of gave a deposit for a future hunt......Live and learn

Reviewer Comments: Hunted with Ernie 1st week of November. The weather was a bit warm and a injury kept me from putting the time in on stand I wanted to. I did see a few shooters and one monster in the booner class. Overall the properties are great, good trophy area in southeast Iowa. The lodge was a converted garage, nothing fancy but for the price of the hunt you can't beat it and the meals were home cooked. I would recommend anyone looking for a Iowa outfitter at a fair price to contact Ernie at Steel creek outfitters, he is a great honest outfitter.
