Oh, where do I start? On June 1, 2021, my wife reserved 2 drift boats for July 7th. We later…read morecalled to change the reservation for 1 drift boat for July 8th, but we were never able to speak to a live person, so my wife left a voicemail. After a few days of not hearing back from Dutch John Resort, my wife called again and left another message. Long story short, my wife called a total of 5 times and no one ever returned her call. One person said someone would. Jump to July 8th. We arrived at the store to pick up our drift boat, what a nightmare. We contacted the young lady who was working in the fly fishing store, and she was truly a breath of fresh air (Ms. Martinez is her name). She went through our reservations and it turns out whoever was responsible for updating our reservation decided to just cancel it. Ms. Martinez handled our reservation as a walk in and was able to direct us to the general store where we were able to book a drift boat for the day. We paid for the rental and drove around to the back side of the store to retrieve our rental. No, it was not that easy. I handed my receipt to the gentleman and he told me to park near the trailers they have lined up near the parking lot, so that is what I did. After approximately 15 minutes, nothing is happening. I walked back over to the boat rental "shack" and the gentleman is telling me my ball hitch is to big ( mine is a 2 5/16 hitch, but I need a 2 inch ball hitch). As he is searching for a hitch, I hear him speaking with another employee asking where "P" is (I used his first initial so I don't embarrass "P"). He then tells the employee "P" is not supposed to be driving because he doesn't have a license, and he is gone, he is finished with "P" because he has told him before not to drive without a driver's license. After approximately an hour of waiting, he finds a ball hitch, hooks up my truck to the trailer and has me drive around to a covered outside fenced area. I did as he requested. I exited my vehicle and I saw the drift boat rental assigned to me. The boat was covered in dirt, there were beer cans and drink cans in the boat and water was still in the boat. He proceeds to use an empty Folgers coffee container to bale out the water, then I help him load it onto the trailer with 2 other employees. As my wife and I are driving out to were we are going to launch the boat, we start discussing the time we wasted waiting for the gentleman to find a tow hitch and prepping the boat. I decided to call Dutch John to see if I could return the boat a first thing in the morning due to the delay and due to the current time; it was approximately 1400 hours when we finally hit the road to the launch site. Oh yeah, the launch site was about an hour away, and the boat needed to be returned by 1900 hours; that simply was not going to happen. A young lady answered the phone and told us if we kept the boat past 1900 hours, we would incur a second days charge ($270.00). We said never mind, but called back 5 minutes later to rent the boat for a second day. Sounds easy enough, right? Nope. When I returned the boat on the 9th, a young man told me I was not getting my deposit back because I did not return the boat on the previous day. He told me "Dave" wanted to talk to me, so he went into the store to get Dave. A few minutes later he came back out and told me "Dave" wanted me to go into the store to talk to him. At this point I am getting very frustrated, but I complied. I walked into the store and asked for "Dave". Guess what, "Dave" was to busy to speak with me, so he sent out one of his employees. The employee was a young lady and she was very nice, courteous and respectful. I explained my "Dutch John Resort" experience with her and she told me she would go back to speak with "Dave". I don't even know if there really is a "Dave" as I have never seen or spoken with him. Anyway, she returns and cleared up THEIR confusion about the late return. I showed the young lady the charge on my card for the second day. Overall experience would be a 1, but the two ladies I dealt with were very helpful, courteous, understanding and respectful. My suggestion, rent elsewhere. Jesse & Kathy

I booked a guided fishing trip for early the following morning. I woke at 6:00 am packed my belongings. When I looked under the bed to see if I had missed anything, I was mortified. There were beer cans, nicotine tin, tissues, and what appeared to be some sort of bone. Yes, a meat bone. I had to meet my guide at 7:00 am. The store was closed so I called the posted phone number to report the issue. A man answered the second number I dialed. I told him what happened. He told me the store opened at 6:30 and he couldn't do anything. At 6:30 the store opened and I talked to a woman at the counter and showed her the pictures. I asked her to look at the cabin. She said she believed me and I texted the pictures to her. When I returned from my fishing trip it was around 5:00 pm. I went into the store and talked to a different woman behind the counter. She told me she had to talk to someone and left. When she returned, she said the manager would take ten percent off the room rate. No apology or anything. I told her that was unacceptable. She left again and a few minutes later the manager, Dave, came out. To make a long story short, Dave accused me of placing the trash under the bed. I told him that I am a retired peace officer, a lieutenant with a CA agency and an upstanding person. He again accused me of putting the trash under the bed as some sort of scam. He said he gets scammed all the time. I took umbrage to this and told him off. He told me to leave, grabbed my arm and started to escort me out. I told him to take his hand off me, which he did. Then he told me he was going to get five guys to take me out. I said, "go ahead". He said he was going to call the police. I said , "please do". When he didn't, I did. A sheriff deputy arrived a short time later. I told him I realized he couldn't do anything and he said he'd talk to Dave. He asked if I paid with a credit card and I said I did. He said if they decided to give me a refund, I would see a credit. I told him I wouldn't expect to see that. I have my own Airbnb and am a super host. I would never treat my guests this way. I would have probably been satisfied with a sincere apology, but 10 percent off the room rate with no apology? That's an insult. And he sends his employee back to extend the offer rather than come talk to me himself. The fishing guide told me he's heard nothing but bad things about Dutch John resort. I've read some other reviews, all negative. Dave is mentioned specifically in one, similar attitude. The owner brushes them all off as disgruntled customers, unjustified.

After spending 5 glorious days exploring Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks, I was making…read moremy way back to Salt Lake City, Utah for my return flight home to Florida. Since the drive from Jackson, Wyoming to SLC Airport is almost 5 hours and 300 miles away, I decided to break it up with a pitstop along the way here at Flaming Forge National Recreation Area. I had read and heard good things about Flaming Gorge...being very picturesque...that it peaked my interest to come and see what this place was all about. And like I mentioned it was in almost direct line with my travels back to Salt Lake City. First coming upon the Flaming Gorge area....there's a huge dam built as you make your way south on US 191. At this stage, slow your car down as there's a DAM VISTA (situated on the left hand side of the road) that you turn into and park at a small lot. Here...get out of your car and there's a COOL OVERLOOK that captures views of the entire Flaming Gorge Dam. This area is a nice spot for photos. It sort of reminded me of being at iconic Hoover Dam in Vegas/Arizona. Making your way past and across the Flaming Gorge Dam and bridge, you come upon the Visitors Center. I stopped inside and picked up a souvenir keychain and postcard at the VC though there wasn't much else going on. You do get some ground eye level views of the water and surrounding area but the looks here weren't special. One thing...inside the Visitors Center, you can make an appointment for a tour to walk across the bridge suspended over the dam. This could be a worthwhile opportunity for scenic moments (same at Hoover Dam), but since I was managing my time before my flight home, I couldn't hang around for too long. Now if you continue driving on US 191 towards Manila, Utah...the road eventually turns into Highway 44. Along this Highway 44 for a short distance (few miles)....here's where things GET GOOD! Absolutely stop at RED CANYON! Make a right turn as the sign says and turn into Red Canyon Rec Area and follow the path until the end and park. Get out here and walk to the BEAUTIFUL VISTA AND PANORAMA SPOT highlighting the winding river embedded between the red and green toned rocky landscape! Finally, continuing on Hwy 44 for 28 miles towards Manila, Utah...you'll come upon more grand scenery. I have to mention SHEEP CREEK OVERLOOK!!! As you make your way down the winding countryside road, SLOW DOWN THE CAR and on your LEFT HAND SIDE (it can be missed if you drive too fast), you'll find SHEEP CREEK OVERLOOK. Park and get out of your car and walk up the short hill and you'll discover GLORIOUS AND SPECTACULAR SIGHTS characterizing what Flaming Gorge is all about!! The river water combined with unique colorful and rocky terrain intermingling together made for one of the BEST VIEWPOINTS I can recall IN A LONG TIME! This spot is why I decided to visit Flaming Gorge in the first place! For me...a real humbling moment to gaze into the distance and stop reality for a moment. Eventually, I came upon Manila, Utah. At this small town you can stop for food, gas, supplies, and a gift shop. From here, I continued on my way back to Salt Lake City Airport for my red eye flight home. For anyone interested in discovering Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area, I hope my itinerary finds you well. Although there's so much beautiful topography in Utah and Wyoming, this area right on the border of both states deserves more attention and recognition.
