No website of its own; details from booking agents: this page is built from the agencies and other pages listed under Sources, not from the lodge's own website.

The owners themselves run this small lodge on Estancia Despedida, on the south side of the Río Grande in Argentine Tierra del Fuego, about 45 minutes by road from the town of Río Grande. Anglers wade for sea-run brown trout with single- or two-handed rods on about 3.5 miles of the middle and lower Río Grande and 35 km of the Río Menéndez, which flows into it. The stay is for fishing alone, and there is no program for non-anglers.

Season not confirmed
