Didn’t stay at this site. Visited it while looking for a site for our overnight motor boat week. Mosquitos were atrocious. Would be a great site for early spring or fall trip when the bugs aren’t out. Tree canopy makes it a dark site even on a sunny day.

Tons of space, great for large families, and room for games.

Sandy beach good for swimming. Windy. The camp is straight up from the trail and elevated which creates a tunnel effect for the wind. And the camp grate is right in line with it. Looks like maybe someone had a cabin pad here at one time as the ground by the grate is essentially a stone floor. Maybe a max of 3 Hammocks can hang here.
