"Ever since Cynthia was a child she wanted to live on a ranch, I just never wanted the hassles and responsibilities of owning and operating a ranch. And that's the magic of Marabou. It's all taken care of for you. I'm in the development business and I think Marabou is one of the best master planned projects I have ever seen. Anywhere. All of the amenities are completed so the Marabou experience is alive and well today. We love that."
– Jim DeFrancia, Marabou Owner President Lowe Enterprises, Inc.

"Marabou is the perfect place for our family. We all can have the perfect day and yet all four of us may have done something different; fly fish, horseback riding, tobogan, ski, mountain bike, the spa. relax in the spa, or just rekindle. It's our favorite place in the world, no matter what season it is. Everyone is so friendly and everything is taken care of. I mean, they think of everything."
– John and Suzanne Dorton, Marabou Owner Master Craft Boat President & CEO

"Once I drive on the ranch the stress and troubles of life seem to roll off of my back and a sense of calm follows. Marabou is truly a special place. The facilities are great (lodge, spa, exercise facility, outfitters cabin, movie theater and game area, pool, horseback riding, six deluxe Owners' cabins and of course the Elk River for fly fishing). But the greatest attributes for me are the Marabou Master Guides, employees and fellow Owners; they create an environment that is warm, friendly and inviting."
– Matt and Courtney Ferer, Marabou Owner

"The Marabou fishing operation includes some of the best and most extensive streams that I have fished in my 30 years of experience with Fly Fisherman magazine. The trout are wild and healthy, the hatches are abundant, the streams are restored and unpressured. The trout are relaxed and eager to take the fly. Equally important is the eco-friendly paradigm that drives this new development. In fact, the Marabou development overall is a prime example of the new environment-friendly lifestyle that most Americans are seeking."
