About this property
SECLUDED LODGE WITH ONE OF THE LARGEST PRIVATE STOCKED LAKES IN MICHIGAN.
ENJOY YOUR OWN PRIVATE RESORT-Poplar Lake Lodge is a very secluded 4000 FT. lodge with a large stocked privately owned lake in Upper Michigan. Fish include Northern, Muskie, Large Mouth, Crappie and plenty of pan fish. Fifteen miles north of Little Bay De Noc and Rapid River, the closet town, which is a 35 minute trip due to the winding roads. Centrally located you have 3 Casinos, 4 golf courses, Marquette, Munising, Escanaba and Manistique all within 1 hour.Three rowboats, canoe, 2 paddle boats, 2 kayaks, 2 13.6 ft. paddle boards and trolling motor with a battery included, you can also bring your own 4 wheelers and ride them anywhere in the U.P. from our door step. (sorry but we do not allow gas motors or guest boats on the lake due to contamination, but you may bring additional trolling motors and batteries) also we have Wifi internet and Direct TV with led tv and Roko. We are centrally located in the Hiawatha National Forest in the middle of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan between Lake Michigan and Lake Superior in Delta County. With no permanent residents for miles and a private dirt driveway 2.5 miles long and a locked gate 2.5 miles away and 1/2 miles from lodge, Enjoy the evening stars and if you are lucky the northern lights. (see pics) If peace and quiet and seclusion is what you are looking for, Poplar Lake Sporting lodge is the place for you.

About the host
Hosted by Charlie
I was born in Chicago and came up to the U.P. with my dad to this location during the summer in the 60's. My dad died in 1974 and I continued to enjoy the U.P. In 1990 I moved up with my family and built a 4000 sq. ft. house. After 2 years my wife moved back to Chicago and I stayed. I then opened the property up for guests during the summer and have done so ever since.
Why they chose this property
The most secluded property in Upper Michigan and your own little private resort. No sharing boats, motors or anything else with other guests since there are none. You can 4 wheeler to anywhere in the U.P. right from my front door. I am centrally located,within a hour I have 3 golf courses, 3 casinos, Marquette, Pictured rocks, Escanaba, and Munising.
What makes this property unique
This is one of the largest privately stocked lakes in Michigan( no license required for fishing) and the most secluded location in the U.P. of Michigan with most of the conveniences of home. The 21/2 mile driveway has a locked gate at the beginning of the road. No permanent residents for 5 miles.
