Highlights
Outing Highlights
Horwood Lake’s pickerel and pike
Horwood Lake boasts some 180 miles of shoreline and is renowned for exceptional Pickerel (Walleye) and Northern Pike fishing, with perch also available—making Cabin 5 a practical launch point for anglers who want direct water access and a marina to outfit their days on the lake.
Fall black bear and moose opportunities
The outpost operates in a region noted for strong Black Bear and Moose hunting; the camp advertises limited openings for guided hunts, positioning Cabin 5 as a convenient base for hunters seeking access to well‑known hunting country.
Housekeeping cottages and marina support
White Moose Outpost maintains eight fully equipped cottages with on-site showers, a gift/snack shop and a full-service marina offering boat rentals, bait and fuel—facilities designed to make a seven-day stay self-sufficient and focused on time on the water or in the bush.
