Deatrick's Camp 440 Rental Cabin is located just west of FFH 13 on West Branch Lake in the Hiawatha National Forest in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Camp 440 is conveniently located only 20 minutes south of the Wetmore/Munising area and about 15 minutes north of Nahma Junction on Highway US-2 for easy access to many of the wonderful attractions and recreational opportunities in the area.

Camp 440 has two-bedrooms with 1 & 1/2 baths. One bedroom is furnished with a queen sized bed and the other bedroom has a full-size bed. There is an additional bunk bed sleeping area and a futon in the living room so the cottage will sleep up to 8 guests or is perfect for a couple. Linens, towels, and paper products are provided.

The living area is an open concept with the windows overlooking the lake. There is a TV with an antenna and DVD & CD players.

Camp 440 has a complete kitchen with full-sized appliances, microwave, coffee maker, and cookware. There is a Laundromat only a few miles away at the general store.

West Branch Lake has a sand bottom beach by the dock that is perfect for the children. They will have a great time in the water so bring your beach toys and spend some time floating on your raft. There is a pontoon boat, a 14" fishing boat with motor, and 2 paddle boats included for wonderful adventures on the water. Take an evening cruise around the lake or try your luck fishing for dinner. You can bring your own boat as the lake is large enough for water sports and there is a boat ramp that is located by the cottage.
