It's overall a decent site. The camp kitchen is pretty poor and the site backs up to a marsh which contributes to a mosquito presence in the campsite. It has a phenomenal BIFF though!

An interesting site, situated near some marshy waters. We were looking for a spot for our larger tent, and I think this site would have worked. However, I didn't see any obvious bear bag trees. Maybe the site changed a bit since the last comment? Or I overlooked something. We moved on in search of a better view and site.

Nice site. Canoe landing is a bit swampy but the actual site is about 100 feet up and away from the landing. Campsite is a bit above the lake so the view is nice, though the trees obstruct most of it. Hanging the food pack was easy and there were a few decent tent pads.

Reasonable canoe landing, then a relatively long walk up to the campsite. Nice view over the lake. Level tent sites a bit close to kitchen, but not too bad. Good site overall.
