A surprisingly good campsite with loads of tent sites. The landings are tolerable, sites don't get a 5 star from me without easy landings. West facing which is nice for wind keeping the bugs away and seeing those beautiful sunsets. The best tent site is very exposed to the elements, not ideal but don't expect a nap on a hot day. This is a sprawling campsite that overlooks the 13 feet of clarity. There were bass on beds which we claimed as pets and fed worms and leaches, it was fun to watch them attack. Hopefully all the extra food will help create the next generation. A fun fact, there is a crooked white pine up the hill on the western shore, it's the top of an 11'3" giant white pine that's accessible by a 15-20 minute hike on the sioux hustler trail. It's a site worth seeing, my wife and I spotted it on our hiking adventure the previous summer, I had to go back to get an official measurement. Check it out if you're in the area!

Didn't stay here, just stopped for a shore lunch. Site has a neat look to it, but it's not very usable for more than a very small group. The fire/kitchen area was annoyingly surrounded by logs so you couldn't even get in the area without having to step over large logs.
