OK site but tent pads are all near each other in the primary area. It's a relatively low site and water was quite high at the time we were there (>2 ft) - at least one tent pad under water. A couple tent pads up in the woods. Kitchen area fine. We found lots of garbage at this site that we hauled out - several old propane bottles and a 20x40 black plastic tarp that was partially buried and had been there a while.

Well used site. Flat and open with an easy landing. Felt a little too used for me but would be nice for a big group. Private cove was a bonus.

Fantastic site. Down a dead-end bay. Sandy swimming beach...what more could you want?

A very nice site in many ways, and: close to nearest neighbor (unoccupied while I was there); exposed to South wind, which was a factor. Good fishing nearby.

As nice as advertized. Something for everyone. Fishing nearby. Nice for swimming. Saw 4 eagles.

Our outfitter called this site "The Hilton" and it was exactly as advertised. We stayed here for two nights, I could have stayed for a week. Site is on small peninsula, good cross breeze to keep bugs away. Great swimming from the rocks on the north side, excellent canoe landing (sandy beach!) on the south side.
