We just stopped here for lunch so didn't stay but overall it's a very nice site. Nice and open, so you're going to get lots of wind and sun. It's also at a bottleneck so there will be lots of traffic going past. Other than that, great site.

Big, open site right near the channel from Lake Two. During the summer lots of groups pass right by the front of this site. It does have an awesome landing, decent tent pads, and a great camp kitchen though. Also no issues with the bugs during the season I imagine with the amount of wind through the site (it was 25 degrees this last time I visited, so bugs weren't going to be an issue anyhow.)

Decent landing. Fire grate is mostly exposed. Several nice tent pads. It's a very nice spot but, there are lots of other campsites nearby and being at the bottleneck area - there will almost certainly be very little privacy in this camp. Trails for exploration.

Huge site, open, gets LOTS of wind and sun, minimal shade. Some good tent spots up away from the water, in high traffic spot.

Great views, the forest service did a great job saving the site from the fire... burned around it, but from camp you will never know... we had 3 hammocks & one 4 man tent on the site

Very nice site, on a point so there was always a breeze to help with mosquitos. Used the tent site to the east of the fire grate to break soon of the wind off the tent. Roomy with a great view onto the lake from a elavated fire site. There are multiple landings for this site and they are all are rocky with some steep drop offs and varying degress of difficulty. The best landing IMO is off the south shore as soon as you round the point, pull up parallel to it faceing in an east to west direction and step out to the shore side. You will get your feet just slightly wet useing this approach.
