Building a new camp. New OB input to make sure nothing is left out.

Elevated camp on the Ouachita. Will have place to hang and process deer, hogs, etc. Trying to make a list of must haves, then wants to make sure I don't leave out anything big. Like when I built my house and forgot about a place for a gun safe. 
Although it will have electricity run to it, will also be on generator back up. Any tips on generator size or type? Seems like I always leave something off. I'm a little ADD so details tend to get forgotten in place of "big" ideas. 
Will have secure place for pirogue. Any structural suggestions? I want this thing solid.

Is this just a hunting camp or will you be entertaining family and friends there as well?

You want solid, go with Eco blocks

Guessing flooding going to be an issue? How are you elevating?

Make sure your guest cottage has AC. I don't want to sweat when I come over.
How high are you going? Ours is about 16' and an elevator has become a necessity as my parents and grandparents age. Moving furniture/appliances would be difficult and dangerous without it now.
Badass, covered fish cleaning, game processing area with ample lighting and electrical receptacles is a must for a camp IMO.

You may want to add a stripper pole. Just in case.

ice machine- gotta have it!

1. As far as the interior design, and camp has to have wood ceilings and stone fireplace.
2. definitely needs an attached garage specifically for the ATV/UTVs so you can jump on a warm seat before heading out.
3. Outdoor firepit or fireplace with stone seating all the way around.

Hot water hookup to hose for washing shite in hot water

I know it's not elevated but I'd suggest something simple like this.
Seriously, though...
-plenty of sleeping space.
-plenty of bathrooms.
-nice place to clean / process game.
-nice kitchen to cook said game.
-extra storage is always nice.

I would go with a Layout like this.

Put the ice machine on your deck. Install a big pipe as an ice shoot for ice chests on ground level. It makes it much easier to have access to ice on both levels without hauling it up/down stairs. Your ice machine will also be protected from floods

A tankless water heater is an absolute must have
Posted on 5/20/14 at 7:37 pm to SmackoverHawg
Make sure I have a bedroom & bathroom to myself.
