Carpenter Lake Cabins provides comfortable accommodations for snowmobilers, ice fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts during our winter season. The fully winterized cabins provide a warm and comfortable respite from the elements.

In addition to ice fishing, snowmobiling or trail riding is the main winter activity. Carpenter Lake is situated on a groomed club trail extending between trunk trails at Echo Bay in the west and Black Creek on the Mississagi River in the east. See trail maps and reports on trail conditions at www.ofsc.on.ca. For trail riding, you need a trail permit, which can be purchased at most sporting goods stores and many gas stations. Costs are $250.00 for a full permit, $140.00 for a 7-day permit and $100.00 for a 3-day permit. Be sure to bring along snowshoes or cross country skis to explore the hiking trails and the land and lakes in winter.

During the winter, the road to Carpenter Lake is normally snow packed and groomed as a snowmobile trail. Guests need to have a snowmobile to travel 18 km to the lodge and also for local trips. You also need to bring your own food, fishing equipment and bait, suitable clothing for both outdoor and indoor use and personal items such as a towel and soap. You may need a sleight to bring your supplies to the camp. Fuel is available.

Please contact us prior to your trip regarding the time that we are open in winter, the availability of cabins and details such as parking and snow conditions.
