Nice campground on the lake

This place is magical! There is lake access along with dispersed and established sites. Some sites are right on the lake. Wind picks up mid day so I went out on the lake with my kayak early. The road in rocky, steep and narrow. Ideally a high clearance vehicle but an suv will probably make it
