Tucked away on the beautiful shores of Lake Perry, our cozy cabins offer the perfect winter retreat for anyone who loves the outdoors. Whether you’re a hunter looking for a comfortable home base, a fisherman chasing that next great catch, or a bird watcher hoping to spot eagles gliding across the winter sky, Rock Creek Marina is your destination for relaxation and adventure, and hunting near Perry Lake is just minutes away! 

A Quiet Season Full of Possibilities

This season at Rock Creek brings a calm that you won’t find during the busy summer months. The crisp air, open spaces, and tranquil waters create a setting that invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature. It’s the ideal time for those who prefer a peaceful getaway surrounded by wildlife and wide-open views. 

Our marina stays open year-round, welcoming guests who appreciate the quiet charm of the lake during the cooler months. With easy access to public hunting lands, prime fishing spots, and scenic trails, Rock Creek Marina is perfectly located for those who thrive outdoors.

Comfortable Cabins for Every Type of Guest

Our cozy cabin rentals are designed to make your winter stay warm, inviting, and worry-free. Each one comes equipped with the amenities you need, including heat, comfortable bedding, and kitchen essentials for easy meal prep. You’ll have all the comforts of home while being steps away from the lake.

Guests often start their mornings watching the sunrise over the water, coffee in hand, before heading out for a day of hunting or fishing. Evenings are best spent relaxing inside the cabin, preparing dinner, and enjoying the quiet sounds of nature. For those traveling with friends or family, our cabins offer plenty of space to unwind after a full day outdoors.

A Hunter’s Ideal Basecamp

For hunters, Rock Creek Marina is perfectly situated near some of the best hunting grounds in the region. The surrounding area offers opportunities for deer, duck, and small game hunting, with plenty of terrain variety—wooded trails, wetlands, and open fields. You can spend your mornings tracking whitetail deer or waiting patiently in a blind as ducks take flight over the lake.

After a long, cold day in the field, there’s nothing better than returning to a warm cabin where you can clean up, dry your gear, and prepare for the next hunt. Staying close to the action means less driving, more rest, and the convenience of being right where you need to be when the sun rises.

Winter Fishing on Lake Perry

Fishermen know that winter brings some of the most rewarding days on the water. With fewer boats out and quieter surroundings, Lake Perry becomes an angler’s paradise. Crappie tend to school up in the colder months, making them easier to locate. Bass move to deeper water, and catfish remain steady feeders for those who know where to look.

The marina’s location gives you direct access to great fishing spots, whether you’re casting from shore, taking out your boat, or dropping a line near the docks. To help you plan your trip, check out our Lake Perry fishing guide for seasonal insights, local regulations, and helpful advice. And when you’re done, your cabin is just minutes away—no long drives, no crowded lodges, just a quick trip back to warmth and comfort.

Bird Watching at Its Best

If bird watching is your passion, winter at Rock Creek is a spectacular time to visit. The cooler months bring an array of migrating birds that make their seasonal stop along the lake. Perry Lake sits directly along the Central Migratory Bird Flyway, a key route for waterfowl traveling across North America. Each season brings ducks, geese, and other species through the area — making it a must-visit destination for bird hunters.

Grab your binoculars, bundle up, and head out for a morning walk along the shoreline or nearby trails. The crisp air and quiet surroundings make every sighting feel special. Whether you’re an experienced birder or just enjoy the peaceful rhythm of nature, Rock Creek Marina offers endless opportunities to observe wildlife in its natural setting. 

The Perfect Winter Getaway

Even if your plans don’t include hunting or fishing, Rock Creek Marina is still an ideal destination for anyone who loves peace and simplicity. The cabins are perfect for weekend getaways, family retreats, or solo escapes when you just need to unplug. Winter mornings often begin with a layer of mist over the water, and evenings end with epic sunsets reflecting across the lake.

You can spend your time hiking, photographing wildlife, reading by the window, or just enjoying the stillness that winter brings. The combination of comfort, scenery, and serenity makes Rock Creek Marina a one-of-a-kind retreat during the colder months.
