The Hamlet Lake homestead is our 10-acre family home with two unique and private hip-camp sites. The Hamlet Lake Bunkhouse is located to the west of our home in its own secluded parcel next to the lake. The Camp on Hamlet Hill is to the north of our home, on a remote flat hill at the top of our property, on a hill over Cedar brook. with 300-acre, (private) Hamlet Lake in front, and the wide portion of the 20-mile Cedar brook in the back. We are a large "homesteading" family, with chickens, ducks, and a garden. The campsite is a private 1/2 acre clearing, surrounded by woods with a firepit, grill, cooking utensils, and an outhouse. (Tents are available for a small additional cost). There is an outdoor water pump below the hill. Guests can access the waterfront and beach in front, with the use of the swim raft, lily pad, fishing dock, canoe, kayak, and paddle boards included. At nearly 100 feet deep, Hamlet lake also boasts excellent fishing. Our home is located 6 miles from Crosby, with the world-class Cuyuna Lakes 50-mile mountain bike trail system. Crosby is a growing tourist town with many new and unique restaurants, outdoor adventures, and shopping opportunities. The paved bike trail begins 3.5 north of us. Milacs lake is 10 miles to the south.

Private and great for a group!
My group and I loved the campsite! Eric was very accommodating and friendly. The site itself was large, private, and clean. There's even a beautiful lake right by the site! We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely highly recommend :)

It was a great little spot, very private. Really fun fishing off the dock, every time bait hit the water a fish bit.

Eric and his family/kids are very sweet and helpful. Their animals are awsome and we even went home with a kitten. The camping area is secluded and was great for our dog to run around. Was hard to get our small front wheel drive car up the hill to the camp especially raining. It was impossible but was no big deal. Loved the beautiful lake and how we could use their row boat, lily pad , life jackets, canoe, kiak etc. Was a huge plus for us. Loved cooking in nature and having an open fire at camp. Was very buggy at the camp site, we aren't experienced campers to say the least but even with bug spray we were pretty bitten up which for us was difficult and we got a hotel. One down side was there was not much alone time at the lake with their family and kids down there. The first day and night there was a bunch of kids down there and teens in the evening . And them throwing around a dead chipmunk (we have a 7 yr old kiddo) we came to get away from the city and just wish we could have had some quiet time. Overall was great would stay again

Perfect private camping spot!
Me and my family had such an amazing stay here! It was a little buggy but bug spray helped! We all had so much fun on the lake paddle boarding and canoeing and fishing! We would totally stay again!
