I'm not sure why the below average reviews for this site. There are two areas to land canoes, but expect to get your feet weight or scratch up the canoe. The landings aren't steep or slippery. There is a nice area to stage canoes that is out of the way from the landings. It is pretty shallow leading into the campsite, but the fishing was stellar for SMB. There are two good tent pads, might be able to fit a third. Plenty of space for hammocks off from the main site in a grove of pines. The fire pit isn't facing the water and can get a bit hot from a lack of wind coming through. Had two calves and a cow walk from the portage right in front of our site one morning. I really enjoyed this camp.

Not an awesome site by any means, but serviceable. I had the lake to myself at the start of June and my choice of camspsites as a result. I didn't love the one across the way and was already set up before I visited the one on the north end. I could see the portage causing traffic during the busy season, but I pulled in during late afternoon and had no problem.
