Las Vertientes located in Villa del Totoral in the centre of the year round hunting area of North Cordoba

A beautiful permanent creek, where the cattle brewed years ago and gave the name to the property ,runs between the building that holds the bedrooms and the living dinning area, with a outside resting area

It holds only six double bedrooms in suite. All these as the dining and living areas are finely decorated following the old arquitentonic style of the Old Argentine Estancias adding all the facilities of modern hunting lodges

Service rendered by an extremely, qualified house staff. A white glove table service, gourmet three course Dinners, own bottled wine, and five star barbecues in the veranda of the house, mark a nice difference
HUNTS

Even with a permanent flight of doves on top of the house and in the surrounding 2000 acres where we hold the hunting rights, we prefer to travel to our fields in the Churqui Valley 45 minutes away where we feel confident that we can present the birds in many different alternatives.

Here we own an old farm house with an air conditioned dinning room, as bathrooms and cots for the afternoon siesta under the shade of the ancient trees

We also hold the hunting rights in a couple of fields between the house and the airport always scouted to be used in case of a delay in your arriving flights. The short travel distance from the airport marks a difference that day

Shotguns are available at the lodge if you don’t want to travel with one. We are permanently renewing a stock of 30 Beretta and Bennelli 20 ga semi automatics, and as alternative we offer over and under guns of the same gauge

I always suggest that guests bring your own gun, at this level of shooting; a personalized gun always makes them shoot better and efficiently

We guarantee to offer the opportunity to shoot during your stay all what your body will accept. Since we started our operation we never had a complain regarding the amount of birds, our main problem is keeping the groups in the field in that last hours of the day where all birds come back

Our excellent recognized presentation of birds can be realized due that we have over than 100 posts in our 20 different shooting areas divided between our owned 1200 acres, and holding a great amount of long term leases.

Posts that go from very high hills, with magnificent valley views with birds flying into you as a driven hunt, to big openings in the forests, with the birds swiveling around, low flight with outs and inns of the roosts, water holes with a turbine sensation flight, as some occasional plain hunts on request.

The 1000 to 2000 rounds are easily reached every day .Guests are averaging a case each hour and a half. The hard flying times last more than four hours in the morning and more that five in the afternoon. These average hunting times are shortened in winter months (June) and enlarged in summer (December)
In case of needing to shoot more rounds our specialized team of Secretarios (pick up boys) are very well trained to load for you even with a pair of guns. This team plus our Fieldsman will do all the efforts for you to have the hunt of a lifetime Through the years they have a great facility to communicate even with their limited English: All have a radio communication with the English speaking host in the field, as a stool with fresh water and soft drinks at the post

All Groups remain private. Our small experience in mixing groups don’t show a good result

Other add is my personal attention to all the groups .My background of 25 years hosting hunting groups, plus many years playing in the European Polo Circuit, as organizing for years many trail rides for groups up to 50 guests in over 20 different destinations in Argentina and Uruguay, helps to establish a relation with the guests that is reflected in a big amount of repeat business
