Nebraska Buffalo Hunting

Our Buffalo hunts are not just a hunt, they are an exciting event! Our package price is for one hunter and one non-hunter. However, we invite your entire family to join in on the hunt, or enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the lodge by the fireplace. We will dress, skin, quarter and hang your buffalo in our freezer. Your meat will be fully prepared for the ride home to your butcher. Average yields are approximately 350 to 400 lbs. but depend on the size of the buffalo you harvest.

Cottonwood Hunting Lodge offers terrific buffalo hunting in the Nature Conservancy's Niobrara Valley Preserve.

We can’t hunt all year long so we raise buffalo the rest of the time. Our breeding herd consists of award winning animals from all over the US and Canada. In addition to our ranch we also hunt several other large Bison ranches in the surrounding area. This allows us ample access to large mature bulls and greater flexibility when planning hunts. We also offer a limited number of breeding stock as well as both grain and grass finished slaughter animals. If you have any questions regarding our bison production or would like a slaughter animal, please feel free to contact us.
