Lost Island hunting club and lodge.: We have operated our family owned hunting club at Lost Island for 30 years. We offer guided, and non-guided hunts and lodging throughout the waterfowl season. Our hunting is done on our improved wetlands from electrified, heated blinds and pits, as well as portable and permanent heated blinds from sandbars and islands on our 2 miles of Platte River. Ice out systems ensure a quality hunt even during cold, late season outings. Our lodge and bunkhouse were built in 1993, and 1998 respectively. Extensive wetland enhancement projects were completed in 1996, with approximately 70 acres flooded during the fall . Our most recent improvement is a heated indoor game processing facility complete with stainless steel table and sinks, walk-in cooler, hot & cold running water, ceiling fan, and bar.
