Cabin #4 - "Hackmatack"

This Vintage Rustic cabin, primarily designed for the camping & fishing enthusiast, is just one cabin of a 7 cabin resort. This cabin was built in the early 1930's and holds every bit of that vintage character. It may be a little rough around the edges but this authentic cabin holds the wonderful allure of days gone by. Electrical outlets would have been added a few years later and air conditioning wasn’t even thought of at that time. Those details won't matter to the outdoorsy kind coming for the camping experience where lake activity fills your day and evenings are enjoyed around the campfire. This charming cabin has a knotty pine interior and all the basics to create an Up North camping style atmosphere. A lifestyle one will appreciate becoming acquainted with.

All the cabins are lined up next to each other along the shore of a beautifully serene lake. This close proximity to other cabins have traditionally created a friendly community style atmosphere where guests mingle and create lasting friendships. This is the kind of place where your grandparents brought your parents, your parent’s brought you, and you are now bringing your children to create beautiful memories while spending a nostalgic vacation in a familiar old cabin.

This cabin is 449 sq ft and sleeps a family of 6 utilizing 2 bedrooms, each with a queen size bed and a futon in the living room. There's a kitchen with everything to cover your basic needs, a dinning space and a simple bathroom that includes a warm shower. The spacious 11’x6’ enclosed porch overlooking the lake is the perfect spot for watching children at play in the water.

Whether you are looking for a home base to camp at the lake or a base camp while you explore the area’s attractions, you will enjoy this cozy cabin and all its imperfections. More than anything, you’re gonna love the authentic charm and the carefree lifestyle that comes with camping Up North.

Pets are welcome on the property for an additional fee of $25 per night / per pet, paid at time of arrival if not otherwise paid. This includes pets of your visitors to the property.

Free Parking is available for 1 vehicle per cabin. 1 boat/trailer per cabin is also free but are required to be parked in designated area elsewhere on the property.

Carp Lake Getaway
Very rustic. Fun place to stay. Wish the bathroom was updated, but everything worked and was fine. Great location to use as a base to visit UP locations and the Island. Beautiful sunrises over the lake. Highly recommend if you like rustic places with great character!! We would love to stay there again!!

Very happy
We stayed 1 night in October. My only complaint is that you can hear every little sound. We kept walking up because screen doors were banging. The property owner did hunt me up a fan, which helped, but we didn't sleep great. Regardless, I absolutely recommend. I bet it's a great spot in the summer.

Beautiful location
Felt very safe- and BEAUTIFUL location. The bedroom I stayed in had a window overlooking the lake- so I just rolled over to keep an eye on how the sunrise was changing and went outside to photograph at the perfect time. This is not a fancy place- but clean and very beautiful. Very easy to get to as well.

This was a wonderful property and my family and I enjoyed it very much! The owner is kind and welcoming and made us feel right at home. We really loved the view and the comfortable beds and furnishings. My sons really enjoyed being able to have a campfire outside our cabin, right on the lakeside! Although there needs to be some painting done, all in all, this was a wonderful place to stay and we are very happy to have stayed there. We'll definitely be back next year!
