Did not find this site. After reading the other review, I understand why. Knife was nearly full, and we came to this lake out of desperation. Didn't spend the night.

I reserve my "1-star" ratings for campsites I would never want to camp at, and this is one of them. It looks like it hasn't been used in years. We couldn't even find any old charcoal in the fire grate. The tent pad, if you can call it that, was overgrown with grass. It is only big enough for a solo tent. The campsite is hidden. We were paddling only ten feet from shore, and we almost missed it even though we were looking for it.
