Too short

It was lovely. We were lakeside and able to fish daily. Wish we’d had a kayak. Only had 4 days there. Wanted 14! A lot of hiking trails! Sometimes I felt I was on another planet. (That’s why we travel:) The weather just got better and better but we had to cut it short. See you next year!

👌 wow 👌 worth the $75 xtra

North shore might not be easy to get to, but if you got the cojones you can snag a gem. On the beach, a private nook, a high Vista. Options.

Water levels vary, so don't camp too close to the shore.

Cool spots by the beach

You can be by people or in your own nook. The lake is beautiful and the rangers are helpful.
