Not much for views from camp area, firewood, or proper trees for hanging food bag. Was clean and had good kitchen and latrine areas. We started out late from Sawbill at noon, so by the time we got here on our way towards South Temperance it was the first open site we saw. Good enough spot for a stopover on your way somewhere else.

Lots of harsh reviews for this one, but when I stopped in it was no better and no worse than the others. It's seen a lot of use as one would expect close to an EP, but it has a nice "parking" area, decent tent pads, and a biff with a view.

Not the best site. At water level but does have some nice space for tents. Fairly open

Didn't stay here and wouldn't want to. The site was pretty trashed when I stopped in. I packed out the worst of it, but the site itself offers a tiny view and very little tent space.

Only in desperation would I stay at this site again. Low in high water, I had to paddle through trees and set up about 2 inches above lake level. No view of the lake and wood was work to find. I din't like it one bit but was stymied by ice on my route and a lack of other available sites.
