Russ GouldTRADE: A week at the Four Seasons "Aviara" (San Diego) for a week in the bush
We have a 2 bedroom unit reserved for thanksgiving next year (Nov 22 - Nov 29) at teh Four Seasons Aviara resort, in Carlsbad CA (near San Diego). Note, we may be able to alter the dates if these dates are no good for you. This is a super luxury resort with pools, tennis, golf, and close to the beaches as well as the area attractions. The unit comprises two separate bedrooms both ensuite with a kitchen/dining/living area, a guest bathroom (that's right THREE bathrooms) overlooking the golf course. You can visit the website
hereI would like to trade for a week's hunting of comparable "daily rate" in any country, open to any hunt but I really really would like to get a Sable.
PM me if you have a trade.

Russ GouldDepends on whether the "bush" has a golf course view or not

Seriously, for the month of Nov, bedroom/kitchenette/bath units rent for $395 a night, suitable for 2 adults; the one bedroom plus kitchen/dining/living (with convertible couch) w 2 bathroom units suitable for 2 adults plus 2 children, or 4 adults, rent for $725/night. The two bedroom plus kitchen/dining/living plus 3 bath areas (which combines the two previously mentioned options into one contiguous unit)suitable for 4-6 persons rent for $1100 or so if you can get one. So for a PG hunt I would offer a 1 bed/kitchenette "efficiency"; for a sable a one bedroom kitchen/living/dining unit; and for a DG hunt a full two bed unit. And yes obviously I would pay the normal trophy fees and dip/pack on top of that.
"Bring all offers" as they say in the real estate business!
And if you don't need to visit California, talk to me, I can trade this for a similar high end resort almost anywhere in the world, although you may need to be a bit flexible regarding your dates.
