TaxidermyXTaxidermist in Pleasant Lake, Michigan
Larry's Taxidermy Studio is a taxidermy studio located in Pleasant Lake, Michigan that serves hunters and anglers in the area.
The studio works on game and fish mounts for local customers, with some repeat clients who return for additional pieces.
You can expect a small, independent studio experience rather than a large commercial shop.
Reviews mention work on big game and fish, but no full list of species or services is available.
Some customers describe the workmanship as amazing, top-notch, and better than many other studios, while others report rushed work and durability issues such as cracking and flaking paint.
Overall craftsmanship feedback is mixed, with strong praise from a few loyal clients and strong criticism from several others.
Reviewers note that prices can be higher than some competitors but sometimes seen as fair or better value by repeat customers, while others feel misled or dissatisfied with deposits and partial refunds; you should contact the studio directly for current pricing and policies.
Many reviews report very long turnaround times—often well beyond a year—with repeated delays and missed completion dates, so you should discuss expected timeframes in detail before committing.
Customer opinions on quality are sharply divided, ranging from ‘second to none’ and ‘best quality’ to reports of poor workmanship and mounts that did not hold up over time.
Service and communication reviews are largely negative, citing unreturned calls, difficulty reaching the studio, and multiple broken promises about completion and refunds, with only an occasional mention of friendly interaction.
Reliability and turnaround concerns are common themes, with several customers waiting 1.5 to 3 years or more for work that was originally promised in about a year or by specific dates.
Larry's Taxidermy Studio operates out of Pleasant Lake, Michigan, serving customers in Pleasant Lake and the surrounding Michigan area.
Before you leave a trophy or pay a deposit, contact the studio directly to confirm current pricing, timelines, and communication expectations, and consider discussing prior customer experiences that matter most to you.
