Good campsite on a rock point. It is very exposed and could be windy, but that is what we were looking for to escape the bugs. The kitchen is in a small jack pine grove on the point. There is a possible tent pad here, too, but I don't think you could put stakes in. The best tent pads are up in the hill in the woods. Sunsets were great.

Great site, lots of tent pad options. Good mix of elevation and low points.

Very nice site. Great rock point coming off the site. Also, tent space near the kitchen area. A hill ascends in the back end of the site and host a couple other nice areas for tents as well as good overhead views of the campsite and the lake. Not quite an island, but has the feel of an island site as it is water nearly all around it. Good fishing off site and nearby.

A nice site in a lot of ways. Unfortunately, I camped at this site during a heavy downpour that created a lot of standing water around the fire grate and kitchen area. Close to good fishing.

This was a very nice campsite with a large kitchen area. Very nice tent pads up the hill if you want to hike a little. Those are also closer to the latrine as well.
