Nice campground in the woods

Primitive campground in the woods around a lake. Trails access right from the campground. Sites are spacious and not on top of each other. Picnic table and fire ring provided. My only complaint was that that you could hear car traffic from the nearby road.

Bass river , labor day weekend

It a nice campsite, not as private as I would like but very well kept. They had canoe and kayak rentals at the lake. Some very easy trails for kids

Nice campground with good selection of large open and semi-private sites

We only saw the South Shore sites because the North Shore Campground was closed to the public at the time (though I believe it has since reopened.) However, from reviews here it seems the North Shore sites are a lot more densely packed so if that’s a negative for you look at the South Shore first.…
