No real tent pads…the two angled possibilities get a ton of runoff during storms…ask me how I know. Hammock options fine. Caught a single pike on top water from shore. Zero bites on leech/bobber. Good food hanging tree. Kitchen for one or two. With the above being said, I loved it as a solo. Very private. Saw no one in two days. If I’m alone or a pair, I would choose this over some of the better camps over on the main route.
