After a long, hard fight into the headwind, we ended up here. This is a beautiful site with elevated views and a gorgeous pine canopy.

Solid 5 stars for our family. Loved the elevation, the views, and the open nature of the space.

Huge, Roomy site. Many tent pads going back into the woods. Many, many trees for Hammocking. Decent kitchen area. Canoe landing is expert level, which is why I only give it 5 stars

Landings are rocky which is really the only negative of this site besides the potential for eastern winds to blow straight into camp. Loved the view up off the water and thoroughly enjoyed casting in a nice big open area. Unfortunately we caught only 1 fish from shore (and on the whole trip!) but it was enjoyable to fish from. The site is big and sprawling and has a couple good tent pads. You could also probably fit 2 or 3 hammocks throughout the site. A tarp can be put over the fireplace if you have some long tie-outs. Overall a great site; I really enjoyed it.

Great site perched high up on a rocky point. A few nice tent pads, nice rock in the middle of camp for cooking and great views. Canoe landings are limited since the shoreline is very rocky, but the site is great overall.
