I used to stay at places with prices like that when I worked up north. some of them were so not worth it. - mafic Nov 28, 17:42 9

    - we usually got better fishing than the lodges, we could fly the helicopter to places they couldn't get to. also once threatened by the secret service. - mafic Nov 28, 17:53 3
      - I wish I remembered exactly what they said. something like "aircraft approaching [lodge], identify yourself and state your intentions." - mafic Nov 28, 18:18 1
        
        Had a similar non-chopper story golfing when we showed up just after Clinton arrived. - Will Hunting Nov 28, 18:38

But it says meals are included! Unfortunately the meals are probably fish. - Cuzzin Todd Nov 28, 17:42 5
- The majority of my immediate family vomits at the sight of fish. I love, LOVE seafood -- nm - loosilu Nov 28, 17:50 2
  - Seafood is not fish. I will gorge myself on seafood. - Cuzzin Todd Nov 28, 19:18 1
    - I love fish, especially freshwater, not so much seafood. - .❄ Nov 28, 21:26
- a fish meal can be bad or it can be awesome, it depends on the cook -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 17:48 1
  - No, it can only be bad. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Nov 28, 19:17
If the 2021 work trip goes as planned, I'll be staying at a resort about 6 hours north of there. - Beryllium Nov 28, 17:18 5

  - Lake Coeur d'Alene. Much more affordable. -- (link) - Beryllium Nov 28, 17:23 3
    - When I worked at the flying school my boss bought a facility at the airport there because word was they be building a casino at the lake. - Meg Nov 28, 17:28 1
      - Neat! -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 17:33
