Not the greatest landing but it is serviceable. Site is elevated with an excellent view of this beautiful lake. While the fire grate itself is par-excellance, the ground just behind it is severely sloped and there is no log seating. There are a couple of decent tent pads but black spruce seems to be the dominant tree around camp so tarp & hammock options will need an extra measure of creativity. While I believe a larger group would struggle here, I think a small group would find this site quite acceptable.

This is an outstanding campsite for a solo paddler or anyone with just a single tent. If you're hammock camping, however, there are a lot of options. Great view of the East. Good shade from afternoon sun with good exposure to breeze from pretty much all directions. Great site!

The sun was pretty much set by the time we rolled in. It was a good travel day coming from the Stuart EP! The campsite is nice enough with a small area to sit and some room for four to sleep anyways. We had some time to fish and at least one nice Walleye was caught.

Beautiful little lake with good fishing. Camp site was not spectacular but definitely adequate. I will stop here again.
