Kitchen area was nice and open. It was a small climb from the lake. Rocky landing that you could load and unload parallel to shore. You will need a lot of rope to hang a tarp over the kitchen area. We were able to catch walleyes from camp early in the morning and just before dark.

Open site with large tent pads. Offers a nice view of the lake. The kitchen is up a slight hill. The landing is average for Alton (meaning difficult) - it is rocky, but you can parallel park along the rocks to get out.
