Didn't stay here even though it was getting late in the day. Poor excuse for a site, immediately adjacent to a short portage that is not shown on the PP map. Kitchen poor. Couldn't find a decent spot to pitch a tent, so continued upriver.

We stopped here because it was available and we were worried about not finding an open site further down the river near the falls. Nice and flat, very close to the water. Pretty private stretch of the river as pennisulas jet out at both end giving you a private little stretch of the river. Wasnt much camp furniture, but it was ok. Easy to wade out in the river for a swim. Caught a couple northern from shore running a shad rap.
