Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE LAKE

Horwood Lake — Big Water, Big Fish

Horwood Lake offers an expansive shoreline — some 180 miles — and is known for excellent pickerel (walleye), northern pike and perch fishing, making the lake the primary draw for anglers staying at Cabin 4.

THE LODGING

Housekeeping Cottages with Marina Support

The outpost consists of eight fully equipped housekeeping cottages with showers and onsite conveniences including a gift/snack shop and a full‑service marina for boat rentals, bait and fuel — a practical hub for your week on the lake.

THE PURSUITS

Fishing, Hunting and True Wilderness Access

Beyond fishing, the outpost offers fall black bear and moose hunting in a region noted for those opportunities; the camp is boat‑access only and openings for hunts are limited, so advance contact is required to secure space.

What the day feels like

What a Week at Cabin 4 Feels Like

A typical stay unfolds as a deliberate step away from roads and schedules: arrive at the marina, board for the short boat transfer to the outpost, settle into Cabin 4’s housekeeping comforts, then use the marina’s boats, bait and fuel to explore Horwood Lake’s miles of shoreline for pickerel and pike or stage out for seasonal hunts — returning each day to the quiet of a remote cabin and the practical comforts on site.
