This campsite does not appear to be used much, though it has most of what you would need. The landing is decent, with a rock outcropping where I parked the canoe and a brushy trail leading up to the site. From the kitchen, there is a narrow but decent view of the lake. I found two good tent pads. One is small and tucked back in brush, and the other is larger and accessed by a trail from the kitchen. A third area exists but has a large rounded rock in the middle and is not a good pad. The site is sheltered, which may lead to bugs during calm conditions. I am rating it two stars since it has everything you would need, but I believe most people would rate it one star.
