About this property
The Lookout- Renovations and upgrades coming
Lookout Lodge is a spacious, seasonal cabin perched above the water on Black Lake, offering beautiful lake views from multiple areas of the home. This three-bedroom, 1.5-bath cabin comfortably accommodates up to ten guests and provides direct access to a private dock block.
Guests enjoy a semi-private section of the campground with a two-car driveway, picnic table, private fire pit, and charcoal grill for their use. Inside, the cabin opens to a central hallway, where a full bathroom with a walk-in stand-up shower is located immediately to the right. All three bedrooms are located to the left of the hallway, each furnished with a queen bed. Continuing through the home, guests will find a compact kitchen featuring a dedicated coffee bar, along with a nearby half bath. A step down leads to the main gathering spaces, with the dining room to the left offering seating for eight and the living room to the right providing plenty of seating for relaxing together. The living room includes two full-size sofa beds for additional sleeping space. Glass doors lead out to a private deck overlooking the lake, where guests can relax or take the stairs down to the private dock for fishing or spending time by the water. Please note that access to the dock requires the use of stairs.
Located within Back Bay Campground, Lookout Lodge offers a private setting with full access to campground amenities, including a heated pool, 24/7 arcade, walking trails, and a camp store offering seasonal rentals and activities. Whether you’re spending the day out on the water, exploring the campground, or unwinding back at the cabin, everything you need for a relaxed lake stay is close at hand. Lookout Lodge is well-suited for large family gatherings or friend groups, offering plenty of room and seating.
Lookout Lodge is currently undergoing off-season renovations and will be ready for the upcoming season. Planned updates include a renovated kitchen, bedrooms, bathroom, living room, deck, and all-new furnishings. Photos may not reflect the latest improvements, but updated photos will be added once renovations are complete. All descriptions represent the updated features.
