Our Kids Trip of a Lifetime
We took our 7 and 11 year old sons to the Lodge. All 4 of us went dove hunting. We had the best time with our guide Omar he took great care of us driving us to and from airport and to his honey holes! Caroline who made our reservations for flights, lodging and just all around trip coordination was quick to respond and answered all of our questions. The bird boys had a great time with our young sons and we always felt safe and had so much fun with them. I truly think they enjoyed going out with our sons. The lodgings were great and the food was impeccable! Our kids loved the food and tried every single thing. It was fine dining every night with snacks after the hunt. We loved it and our sons said it was the best trip of their life and they have had some pretty epic ones but this is their top!

The absolute best.
I only give 5 stars because that’s the highest option. We would give 10 stars if possible. The most phenomenal trip of my life and we can’t wait to come back! The most wonderful people, phenomenal meals, dramatic scenery, and unbelievable hunting. Paul and his crew are the best in the business.

August hunt
Great lodge and excellent food. Guns did not work consistently. Would not return without bringing my own gun. I wanted to bring my own gun but it was strongly suggested I leave mine at home and use the lodges guns. Overall shooting was excellent and the guides were superior.

What a great trip and experience
What a fantastic experience. 5 Star food and accommodations. The hunts are what you read about and really experience. Treated like a king from the airport and back. Will do it again! Cater to any needs. The meals are fantastic. Not to mention the deserts. Lunch outside overlooking the river as well as in the field is fantastic.

Experience of a lifetime
Great food, drinks, a responsive and friendly staff, and of course terrific hunting sites and guides to match. The rooms were large and accommodating, the dining and living room areas allowed for circulation and wonderful socializing with our group of 16. A memorable experience we'll try to repeat at EC.

Extreme disappointment
Food was good and sometimes very good . Lack of communication between staff and guests very evident . No one knew when dinner was to be as it was a moving target . Should be posted . Evening appetizers very sparse and weak . For 1000$ usd/day expect a lot more quality and better presentation. We brought our wives so they could fish dorado they fished 1 day and charged us for 5 days. Was supposed to hunt perdiz 2times only was taken 1 time. Field shooting only had 1 shotgun that needed lots of repair . I’ve been to Argentina 15x and ALWAYS have had 2-3 guns in field.poor poor communication with field manager . No schedules or a plan ! Always last minute Rush !

Cortaderas- The best getting better
Estancia Cortaderas, once again did not disappoint. Our last visit to Cortaderas delivered all aspects of a true Mixed Bag hunting lodge with the highest level of service, hospitality and hunting. The hunting staff, Omar, Chavo, Axel, Brian and the rest of the guides were exceptional. The lodge staff. lead by Paul James, provided a seamless guest experience. Lastly, the food experience, in both the field and at the lodge, simply world class Argentine cuisine.

Hunting trip of a lifetime
Five star resort for Argentina standards with incredible customer service. The hunting was epic and the food was even better. Every employee made you feel like you were the owner of the place. Can’t wait to go back next year.
Ensure your passport is valid and up-to-date. If required, obtain the necessary visa for travel to Argentina. It’s essential to have these documents readily available for customs and immigration purposes.
Check the temperature chart for both lodges and pack clothing accordingly. Layers are recommended for fluctuating temperatures. Bring lightweight, breathable clothing for warmer days and warmer layers for cooler evenings. Don’t forget a light rain jacket in case of rain showers during the rainy season.
Opt for sturdy and comfortable footwear suitable for walking in various terrains, including grasslands, fields, and riverbanks. Waterproof boots are recommended, especially for wet conditions
Don’t forget essential personal items such as toiletries, medications, sunscreen, insect repellent, and any necessary prescriptions. It’s also a good idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen for sun protection during outdoor activities.
