Nice lake, very quiet. the site is at water level and has a rake to it - until you discover the upper flat which is excellent for tents and hammocks. Swimming 1 star, fishing 1 star, privacy 3 star. This is a good site, I would stay here before taking on the Trout river if that's where you are heading. You'll really be in for a tough slog getting to the Trout R and there aren't many sites on the river, so stay here and rest up before tacking that shallow mess.

Super busy lake with a good amount of development on it, including a resort and bar on the south shore (but maybe that's a plus?). Site itself is okay.
