Sawsan here;
I was just rereading PoA myself (my honest to goodness favorite of the
series) and I was thinking the same thing. The only thing I could
think of is that I think the Marauder's Map is limited to the Hogwarts
grounds and castle, which possibly excludes the Forest and the Shack.
The Shack is in Hogsmeade, even though it is close, it would not be on
the map.
Just my way of making sense of it.
