    Camp by the lake

    Camp is by the lake. When you arrive, we hold a safety and hunt briefing. It’s mandatory, and afterwards there’s time to settle in before the first hunt. We cook every meal. We don’t sell drinks in camp, so pick up what you’d like in town on the way out.

    • Two cabinsThe brown lodge, where we eat together and plan the next day’s hunt, and the guest cabin to sleep in.
    • Up to six guestsAt a time, all sleeping in the guest cabin.
    • Four roomsTwo single beds in each, with bedding.
    • By the lakeIn view from both cabins, with fresh drinking water straight from the ice cap.
