    Hamlin Lake is an all sports lake perfect for boating, tubing, jet skiing and fishing. Fishing on Hamlin Lake can be enjoyed year round as Hamlin Lake is well known to be a great ice fishing lake and the perfect access point is located less than 1 mile north of the cottage which is suitable for accessing the lake with snowmobiles and/or ATVs. For your enjoyment a canoe, two kayaks and a paddle boat are available for your use along with paddles and life jackets. There is dock available if you plan to bring your own boat. Please note, there is a small bridge you will need to pass under with your boat in order to access Hamlin Lake from the bayou. After boating around the lake head over to the dunes on Hamlin Lake. This is a great spot to anchor your boat, swim and relax on the beach. If you're feeling adventurous you can climb the dune and you will find Lake Michigan on the other side. There is a marine fuel station on the lake and a great marina bar/restaurant located at Wilson Hill Park and Boat Launch. When you return for the day, conveniently clean your fresh catch of the day at the fish cleaning station. Once you're ready to relax for the evening you can spend your time around the fire pit by the lake and take in beautiful sunsets over Hamlin Lake.

The house was just as pictured. Very clean and neat with a well equipped kitchen! Great location, very short walk to the water and the addition of the access to kayaks was convenient. Definitely recommend!

Very peaceful

The location is perfect, very quiet. It is an older house but well kept, the kitchen has all you need to cook a meal. We loved the fire pit outside, and appreciated the fish cleaning station by the lake. The only downside is that second bathroom was in the basement and since we were two couples there were multiple trips downstairs, but it's minor. The host is very friendly and ready to help you. We had a wonderful time

Quiet location with a view of the bayou. Cottage is older but clean and well supplied. Kids had fun catching bass and bluegill from the dock. Joe is a great host very helpful and friendly.

This was a perfect boys weekend getaway. Took my son, his best friend and his dad up here to do some fishing. We caught salmon on the big lake, fished Hamlin lake for some perch, and caught a ton of bluegill of the dock at the cabin. The place was clean and had all the outdoor amenities you could want. It was nice to see the boys spend every moment outside fishing, climbing trees, and playing by the dock. Will definitely be back!
