Remote Shelters with a great beach

Site consists of 6 shelters and 1 camp site.  Two of the shelters and the campsite are on the water.  Very popular place for anglers who use their boat to catch trout and salmon in open water.  Every site had a BBQ grill for small fires.  Large communal firepit near the bear box.

Weather shifted in extreme ways when the wind blew from the north with fog coming in every few hours.  Seems to never get fully dry!
