Many of our guests have questions about the proper procedure for tipping at Ruby Springs. Please use the following as a guideline for what you feel is appropriate. We employ a tip pool that’s shared by the entire lodge staff because everyone here plays a critical role in ensuring your experience is positive. Most of our guests choose to put 10% of their total bill toward this tip pool, which can be included in the final bill upon checkout.

Additionally, fishing guides receive an average of $200 per day as a tip for each guided trip (1 or 2 anglers), and the guides prefer cash or personal check. You can tip your guide at the end of the day or the end of your stay — whatever’s most convenient for you. And remember, these are simply guidelines, and you should tip what you feel is appropriate. And please let us know if there’s anything special that we can do to enhance your stay.

The day of arrival and day of departure are non-guided fishing days unless requested. The guide fees for those days are:

• HALF-DAY: $375 per guide
• FULL-DAY: $600 per guide

These prices do not include guide gratuities (see above for gratuity guidelines).

Non-angling rates are $750/pp per night based on double occupancy. It’s an additional $300/pp per night for single occupancy.

Your 50% deposit is fully refundable up to 90 days before your arrival. If you must cancel within 90 days of your arrival, the 100% of your payment will be refunded only if we can rebook the dates at full price or if you send a full-paying guest in your place. If we are unable to rebook your dates you will forfeit 100% of your payment. Please consider purchasing travel insurance to protect your investment.

If you must cancel and want your dates back for the following season, you need to send a full-paying guest(s) in your place. Your replacements must understand that they will not be able to rebook the same dates for themselves the following season.

We accept checks, wire transfers, cash, and most major credit cards.
