A good site with lots of rock. Just above the water is a large grassy area which is level and great for tents. Fire grate area is good. Rocky area above the camp for exploring and views of the lake. One of our group set up a tent on a flat area on the rocks above the camp proper.

Pretty site but exposed - nice grassy area above water on hill - lots of ticks tho - we got pooped paddling seagull and alpine against wind all day so stopped here - caught nice northern against island that this site faces directly in front of site - exposed to wind so makes camp fire dangerous and wouldn't want to be up there in lightening storm! Decent place to put in canoe and take a break tho.
