Beautiful beach! Great for swimming and lounging around. Obviously easy put in for the canoe. Nice fire pit with a marginal sitting area around it. Great site overall!

Nice sandy beach, great for swimming. Can pitch many tents on the beach itself. Good site.

Stayed here in 2013. Nice sandy beach, but the area around the fire ring was in poor shape - previous campers had created a second and unnecessary fire ring and had left things quite messy with wood chips, charred logs, bits of trash. Additionally, previous campers had cut cedar boughs to place under their tents which is disappointing to see in this day and age. Site is very exposed, so is quite windy - a bonus for keeping the bugs away, but can also be very chilly in cooler weather or during storms. Great site for sunset viewing.

One of the best campsites I've seen in the Q. Great beach with sunset view. Wade-in 30 yds to chest level. Lots of tent sites on beach. Wind off lake keeps bugs in trees. Real "friendly" squirrels...watch your packs.

Great beach, tucked into cove. Very clean sand with gradual drop-off for swimming. Roomy level tent and fire pit areas. Nice sunset viewing. Will be windy in due west wind conditions.
