Cliff Dwellers Lodge & Restaurant is at the base of Vermilion Cliffs National Monument in one of the Western United States’ most spectacular settings. We are on the road that connects the North and South Rims of the Grand Canyon. In addition, it’s an easy drive to several other National Parks, Monuments, Lake Powell, the Navajo and Hopi Nations. We are home to Lees Ferry Anglers Fly Shop and Guide

Service. Located adjacent to the Colorado River, fly-fishers, kayakers and river rafters travel from around the world to stay with us. In the past few years, people have discovered that our lodge provides the ideal base for Southwestern vacations. Come stay with us, dine with us, see the sights, raft the Colorado River, fly-fish Lees Ferry on the Colorado, watch the birds, hike, photograph sunsets or just relax. Cliff Dwellers Lodge was built in the early 1950s as lodging for Bill Green’s famous air boat trips up the Colorado River for adventurous travelers visiting Rainbow Bridge. Lees Ferry Anglers purchased the lodge in 2001 and immediately began renovation, remodeling and redecoration. It is appropriate that half a century after the lodge was built, it has returned to its roots: providing a fine lodging experience to a river-based business. Lees Ferry Anglers, a fly-fishing guide service and retail fly-fishing business, was founded in 1989 by the current owners, Terry & Wendy Gunn. In less than a decade, we grew our business into the largest fishing guide service in the U.S. We apply a simple successful strategy, with an understanding that exemplary customer service and a quality lodging experience results in return business.

A statement from our Lees Ferry Guides:

“We wanted to reach out and give a quick update about the trout fishery at Lees Ferry. You may have seen the Colorado river in the news lately. Some of the reporting paints a bleak picture, but let us assure you that much of what you may see is a bit inaccurate. We are still catching trout on a daily basis and there has not been a mass die off. The trout are actively feeding, in good health and strong fighters. Both fly and spin methods are working. We encourage immediate release without taking the fish from the water too long. This minimizes stress with the current water temperature.“

Our guides are open, booking and ready to fish with you!
