- “Heartland Lodge exceeded all of my expectations. Lodge accommodations were great. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. Food was excellent, especially the pecan pie. Chris the upland bird guide and his dogs made the hunting experience very enjoyable. Everyone in our group had a great time and can’t stop talking about the great memories we made on our short trip.” -Kyle Hunter
- “Accommodations were excellent! The food, service and staff, hunting, everything was top notch. One of the best lodges and hunts I’ve ever been to. Ben was an excellent guide – very knowledgeable and went the extra mile to make sure we had a great hunt. His dogs were two of the best I’ve seen. Thank you!!” -Greg Clifton
- “The accommodations, food and staff were excellent. Heartland has tremendous properties in Pike and Calhoun countries, most impressive. I had a couple encounters with shooter bucks, needed a couple more minutes of daylight each time, even though the weather was really warm. My son accompanied me on the hunt and took a heavy horned 140 inch 10 point.” -John Burdette
