Donaldson Creek is a family owned and operated hunting camp located in western Kentucky's Caldwell County, offering Kentucky deer hunting at its finest. Jonathon & Faith Rustin have operated the lodge since its inception. The primary focus has always been the satisfaction of the hunter, and we work hard to achieve that. We have operated incident free since day one. Having the ability and opportunity to hunt is something that has always been available and easy to us. Our goal is to make that opportunity available to those who are not as fortunate to reside in our beautiful part of the country, which provides such exceptional whitetail deer and whitetail habitat. We want you to feel like you are part of the family, and we'll do everything we can to extend that courtesy to you and your group. We'll take care of you just like you are one of our own, cause to us you are.

Managing over 3,500 acres of cropland, rolling hills, creek beds and mature hardwoods, Donaldson Creek boasts a thriving population of whitetail deer. Privately owned, our hunting lodge and camp offer excellent habitat for trophy deer and turkey hunting.

We have fantastic accommodations, three home cooked meals per day, and experienced guides who are willing to put forth the utmost effort to ensure your hunt is successful and enjoyable. With over 125 years of combined hunting experience, it is our goal to put you on the deer of your dreams.

All hunts include lodging, meals,  guides, stands and transportation to stands. No hidden fees.

We furnish all bed & bath linens.
*Please note that licenses, permits and deer tags are not included in the cost.
Non Resident License: $130        Deer Tags: $60 (Two Deer)
