On its own merits, a pretty decent site. Raised off the lake with a great view, solid tent pads, good breeze to keep the bugs away. Unfortunately, every single group entering Cherokee from Sawbill will paddle right by you all day. And if someone stays at the site across the water, you will hear every single one of their conversations, since it's just 200 yards away. I deduct two stars for those issues. But otherwise, a fine site.

Good site. Somewhat sloped but not too bad. Not rocky.
