This site is excellent, as others have said. Many tent pads softly padded with pine needles, nice fire area, nice big rocks on two sides, and easy trails around the island. Even with reasonably heavy traffic, we did not find it obtrusive. The problem with the site is that it is kind of trashed from overuse.

Good site, pretty sunset. Nice fire area. Just enough space to spread out and good wind block.

The landing is soft and easy. The tent pads are numerous and clear. The kitchen has some of the best seating I've ever seen. What prevents this from being 5-star? All the damage done, so many trees cut down with hatchets, so many names carved into trees. Great sunsets though, but you get a lot of traffic coming through south of the island.

Nice island site on the north side of Three. We stopped in for a snack break during a pretty strong wind from the West. This site is located on the South side of the island, and can be hard to land at with a Westerly wind. There is a small landing on the East side of the point that is the best spot. The camp kitchen is awesome and there are good tent pads scattered around. The entire site is even aged Red and White pine with a nice layer of Cedar underneath. Awesome site. I would stay here.
