Decent landing with very scenic overview after a short hike. Good tent pads and near to some good fishing holes with plenty of wildflowers around.

The landing is somewhat challenging but do-able, kitchen is small but has nice view across small bay. In burned area but trees are now tall enough to provide just enough shade to make a layover day, which we had to take due to wind (forecast the day before and at noon the layover was 15-20, gusts to 30, reality at noon despite the forecast was winds were a sustained 23 with gusts to 39 - we heard the next day of a party that swamped on Seagull, fortunately right next to a campsite and the wind blew them fortuitously straight to shore {good reason to follow the windward, not the lee shore, when it's really windy}).
Swimming area is okay if you have water shoes as it's very rocky underwater, easier to get in and out if you go over toward the landing.
Sits at base of a 40' granite hill, fun to climb up and pick blueberries, which were in copious quantities.
Here's the thing though - think twice about staying here if you expect thunderstorms. Lightning DOES strike the same place twice and we went through the most intense barrage of cloud to ground lightning strikes of our lives. 5-6 CG bolts struck within a few hundred feet of us in under five minutes. Barely, if any, interval between the flash and (massive) boom. We theorize the granite hills present a good conduit for lightning bolts here. One bolt landed within 100' of us.
I love a good storm but this was way, way beyond anything I have ever experienced in 60 years. And I'm a storm chaser...
