About Us

Garden Rentals was founded in 2007 by Gary and Dennis Bollinger. Our first location is in the small town of Zeeland, N.D. (See map.) This house has been in our family for over 60 years, and we hope to offer you a comfortable place to stay while you enjoy some of the best hunting and fishing that ND has to offer.

We look forward to booking your next ND hunting adventure!

Mid-Sept., 2009--Small grain harvest continues

The July-Aug. roadside count is out and indicated what we all had thought: pheasant numbers and brood numbers are down substantially. Still, there are birds similar in number to 2002, when over 500,000 roosters were harvested. Corn and flowers continue developing and stand tall and thick. With the prediction by forecasters for a mild winter, many of those fields should be harvested by Dec., which should create an exciting late-season hunt: less cover, fewer hunters and wily ringnecks. Keep an eye on the forecasts and keep our website handy.

Mid-Summer 2009: Things are Looking Lush and Beautiful.

Although the spring crowing count was down 25% (statewide average) from last year, the Zeeland area continues to be wet, lush and beautiful. Ducks are everywhere and roosters are plentiful. Spring chicks are being seen with more regularity.

If you have been thinking about making the trip to this part of North Dakota, this is the year! CRP continues (as expected) to be put back into production, but with the abundant rains and standing water, the cover is tall and lush. Late season hunting could be especially interesting.

January, 2009: Pheasant Season Wraps Up

Folks, I would like to thank you for staying with us in 2008. We hope that you enjoyed your time hunting in North Dakota, and we'll see you this fall! Check back with us for the latest info on local hunting conditions, which we'll post as it becomes available.

Also, check on the early season walleye bite, which was excellent in 2007. We're only a short drive from the Missouri River.

Thank You!

December, 2008: Hunting Opportunities Still Out There

Although the hunting landscape has changed as predicted, there are still lots of pheasants in places, especially the PLOTS next to stubble fields. Hunters' success has been good (not "spectacular" as in 2007.) Corn and sunflower harvest continues. Watch the extended weather forecast for that late December hunt. The hunting season continues until January 4th.

August, 2008: Another Year, Another Pheasant Opener!

It looks like it's going to be a beautiful hunting season in North Dakota. The ground cover is equal to last year's, and the spring crowing counts were up a stunning 36% over last year. Zeeland is practically surrounded by PLOTS land, it should be no problem to find pheasants within a short drive from our place.

We have immediate openings for 3, 4 and 5 day hunting excursions! If you've never hunted this area of North Dakota, this is the year to start. Give us a try!

November, 2007: Late hunting can work to your advantage.

The fall hunting season is mostly in the books, and '07 will go down as one of the finest in history (excellent cover, thousands of pheasants, and beautiful weather.) We are booking into '08 with several prime dates already filled. Don't hesitate on those November / December hunts; later dates in '07 produced some great conditions as the late crops were being harvested.

October, 2007: Pheasant Opener Approaches!

It's looking like a beautiful fall hunting season here in North Dakota. The ground cover is the best we've seen for years, and the birds are loving it. Zeeland is practically surrounded by PLOTS land, it should be no problem to find pheasants within a short drive from our place.
