Women's Fly Fishing + Wellness Retreat
Join us for Women's Fly Fishing + Retreat Weekends on the McKenzie! In partnership with Salty Sisters, we're hosting two weekends for women of every experience level — gear provided, no experience needed.
Spend a guided day on the water, gather for a farm-to-table dinner set right in the creek, and enjoy a full day of wellness with yoga, paddleboarding, and creekside relaxation. Want to clean and cook your catch? We're here to help.
September 26–27 & October 24–25, 2026, at the historic Gate Creek Ranch in Vida. Packages $225–$595. Supported in part by Travel Oregon. Reserve your spot today!
Saturday is your retreat day at the historic Gate Creek Ranch: yoga, paddleboarding, creekside relaxation, herbal foot soaks, a forest lounge, crafting corners, and casting practice — followed by a happy hour and a farm-to-table dinner set right in the creek. Sunday, you're on the water — a full guided fly fishing day on the McKenzie, with a farmstead lunch from Ozcar's. Want to clean and cook your catch? We're here to help, with a hands-on cooking demonstration and a Smithey Ironware cast-iron giveaway.
