Well the challenge here is to separate the views from the site from the site itself. The kitchen is pretty basic, minimal cooking surfaces. The canoe landing is OK, not great. There is really only 1 good tent pad if you exclude the flat areas too close to the kitchen to be safe. One other tent pad is OK. One could put a tent or 2 by the kitchen, but one should not do that. But the views of Ima are great from here. And you have a great view of the sky from this site. As mentioned by others, McKenzie maps places the site too far east, it is not on that point. You cannot see the kitchen from the water, so one has to get out to verify the location.

Our group of nine had ample room here which was great as a strong wind was making it it a chore to go any further west. McKenzie Maps has this incorrectly marked on the point to the west which looks like a campsite also (it is not.) This site has an incredible large rock face with room for a group to stretch out.

The McKenzie maps show this campsite on the next point to the West, the site is tucked into this nice little bay however. Some protection for boat landings, however site is very exposed to weather. There is a large rock shelf along most of the camp, fire ring 'area' is small. I would not come back here with a group larger than 3 or 4. Level tent pads and wood supply are scarce, if not this would be a 5* site.

This site has a lot of smooth rock face right on the shoreline, making for lots of area to hang out near the water. The fire grate is on the rock near the water and the tent pads are spread out along the shore with a couple in the woods. There is a good tree for hanging bear bags.
