Booking a hunt with Hanz Meyer at Mountain Creek Outfitters in Saskatchewan will assure that you enjoy and witness the complete Canadian hunt experience. I have hunted both bears and whitetails with Hanz and can endorse his operation as top notch with lots of active stand sites producing nice bucks. In 4 days on deer stand, I saw 16 bucks before I squeezed on a 140 class. Spring bear hunts are no different, our 2008 spring bear hunt was also 100% with 2 of 5 bears exceeding 300lbs. Hanz makes you feel at home and will accommodate any special needs you have. The lodge is tucked deep in off the main road and most stands are really remote. Access to stands is via truck and/or ATV. All deer and bear are weighed prior to skinning (I like that). Camp is about 1 hour outside of Carrot River making runs to town easy. Meals are good, accommodations are 2 hunters per room with the bunk house able to hold 8 comfortably. Showers and food are hot and nights are quiet.

Mountain Creek Outfitters is one of my favorite outfitters to hunt with. The quantity and quality of the whitetails is amazing. Hanz and his staff are top notch. Looking forward to my 2012 hunt.

I have been hunting across Canada for the past 16 years. I have hunted with many different outfitters. I have hunted mostly whitetail but have hunted black bear, caribou, elk, and bison. After many years I finally met up with Mountain Creek Outfitters. I have hunted with Hanz for the past 6 years and it has been great. The camp is very nice and the guides and cook are friendly and look out for you. It's nothing to see 10-25 deer per day. I have passed on many 150 class bucks. I did kill a 171 class 3 years ago with a drop tine in his right beam. For the past 2 years I have passed on 170-180 class, for my goal now is to break 200. My opinion is you cannot find a more honest person than Hanz Meyer. Book now, you will not be sorry.

Thank you for a very enjoyable and successful hunt. We had a great time and the food was fabulous. I would highly recommend your spring bear hunts to anyone interested in a good time and successful archery bear hunt. My bear ended up making Pope and Young minimum qualifications! Thanks for a good time I look forward to coming back.

Mountain Creek Outfitters offers a super experience for a quality Saskatchewan deer or bear hunt. My friends and I have enjoyed 4 consecutive annual hunts and have taken a 156 inch 11-pointer, a 140 class 8-pointer and have had shot opportunities at other 150 class bucks. When it comes to Spring bear hunting, Mountain Creek is a unique and exciting place. The camp is located deep in bear country with a variety of excellent bait sites located in diverse habitats including swampy/marshy areas and more mountainous wooded regions as well. The stands include ground blinds, ladder tree stands, hang-on tree stands and a few permanent wooden tree platforms. The bears are plentiful with color phase bears being seen regularly. We have had greater than 100% shot opportunities every year and have taken 15 bears in 3 years, including several bears over 300 lb and 3 or 4 chocolate phase bears. The camp is rugged with just the right balance of creature comforts including a spacious log cabin with wood burner for sleeping the hunters and a separate guide quarters and kitchen facility with plenty of tasty food. Best of all, the guides are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and genuinely enjoy the thrill of getting you your bear, especially if you are a novice. If you have the time, Tobin Lake is about an hour and a half away and 30 to 40 inch pike are plentiful with an occasional northern pike topping 45 inches.

Dear Hanz, Just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed the deer hunt with you this past November. Although the weather conditions were not conducive to good hunting, both Moffatt and I were able to take two very nice 155 class deer. This was my 4th trip to Saskatchewan hunting in the last 9 years and it was certainly one of the two best trips I have had. I would just love to see what I can do if we had cold and snowy weather. Your guides seem very eager to please and the food was certainly good enough to put a few pounds on me. I ask that you pass on my best to everyone involved in our week up there and I certainly look forward to a return trip.

I have always enjoyed myself there. It is a home away from home. The hunts have been awesome, and the hospitality is always great. I have harvested a 160 class buck with mountain Creek and two Pope and Young bears, one measured 19 9/16 the other 18 4/8. The scenery is awesome, and the fishing is pretty good too.

I have been to Mountain Creek hunting bears two times now. If you are looking for a world class bear hunt with great accommodations this is the place to go. I saw a ton of bears and you have a great opportunity to kill a color phase bear. I took 6 of my friends with me the second time and we killed out in 4 days. You can't beat that.

Hanz, I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed hunting with your outfit. Our group has hunted 9 times in Saskatchewan with multiple outfitters and I consider your camp one of the best we have been in. We loved the wilderness location while having all the comforts of home! This includes the best meals in Sask!! A special thanks goes out to all of your guides who are simply put…the best. They all worked hard and know their stuff. We can’t wait to get back in camp with you and all the guys. Thanks again and have a great year.
