 It wasn’t easy to set a Camp in this place, right in the middle of nowhere. We took 2 years to set up our own civilization at the River of Dreams. We are the only flyfishing operation in the whole Blanco River Valley. More than 30 miles of water just for us.

The tents were designed and buildt by Andy and Eduardo, trying to make the less impact in the beautiful environment where they are located. Our guest will stay in 3 double occupation insolated wodden frame tents equipped with heat, electricity and wooden floors. We have beds and all the comfort needed for a comfortably stay.

One big tent with a nice living room and dining area for the rainy days, plus a beautiful outside table located under a big Coigue tree with a nice fire pit to spend the night around the fire telling fishing stories and enjoying the stars after the fishing day. The Camp has electricity, hot water and 2 shower and bathrooms.
