Entire site slopes toward the water, but we were able to set up 6 tents on relatively flat terrain. The high terrain to the north and west protected us from strong winds due to a passing storm. The panoramic view to the east, south, and southwest allowed for beautiful sunset and sunrise views. The mist in the morning was spiritual. The sounds of the motorboats was somewhat muted by the boundary island forming the half moon bay. It was an easy extraction through Moose Lake in the morning.

Nice open shallow water landing that looks like it would be good for swimming as well. Most of the site is sloped towards the lake but, there are a couple of pretty good (flat) tent pads off to one side. Plenty of mature trees surround camp and should be good for hammocks. Good view of the lake, unfortunately it's right where all the motor traffic funnels between Moose and Newfound. But, I don't think you can realistically expect to escape that if camped on this chain of lakes.
