I stayed here for my first solo trip. It was the only site open. There are two decent tent pads, so you could squeeze a couple more solo tents in if you had to. The site looks over the lake. The landing is decent, and then it's a climb to the top—there are steps to the top. A raided turtle nest was right next to the fire grate, and many ants crawled about. The latrine is tucked away across a ravine. The rock on which the camp sits is an interesting formation, with an egg-shaped geometric pattern. I was told it was part of an ash deposit from a volcanic eruption.

Decent landing. Steep climb up to the site. Fairly nice view from the kitchen, but it is somewhat blocked by trees. One very large tent pad near the kitchen. There was another tent pad not as nice on a "second level" below the kitchen.

This is a wonderful site with access on two sides, a nice elevated fire/cooking area, and a couple of nice and large tent pads.
