From a distance, we thought this campsite was taken. There is a very misleading canoe-shaped rock by the landing, but we scoped it out anyways and were pleasantly surprised. This split level campsite has a small sandy beach area that makes for a great landing, as well as easy water access. The private bay is protected from the wind and perfect for a beginning paddle boarder, which our group happened to have. And the fire pit/kitchen area is elevated up to give you amazing views all around. This site had a few nice tent pads, as well as ample spots for hammocking. There were three of us in hammocks and we were able to find an area for all three of us to hang. It's worth noting, as well, that there is a very short walk to the latrine. You may want to bring a tarp is privacy is a concern for anyone in your group. And there aren't many spots to hike and explore. Also, we had a bear come and destroy our TP canister, but we were easily able to scare him off. We would gladly go back to this site again anytime, even with our wildlife encounters.

Solid campsite with great sunset views overlooking the lake. Multi-leveled site with nice, sandy landing and plenty of flat rocks to dry gear, if need be. Fire grate positioned for good views. Not many options for hanging bear bags. Only 1-2 trees hanging over lake seemed to be viable options.

Kind of a nice, out of the way campsite. Multi-leveled but in a bay with shallow water. I would be worried about getting the cleanest water here. Not much breeze but open and well used. Backs up into a burn area so firewood and blueberries should be plentiful.
