TravelerI selected a semi shaded site about 25 feet off the road about 2 miles in. There are many sites but you may have to look as a lot are overgrown. I am glad I selected the site I did as it stayed “dry” through 48 hrs of torrential downpours. I had very few problems with the bugs: have a nice smoky fire…best repellant out there!
GuideClean, spacious sites. O shower in this loop.
TravelerWe had a wonderful weekend at the camp! The kids loved swimming and it was very beautiful at night ! There were places close to get things we forgot overall very nice . One thing was the quiet hours are from 10pm to 7am and around midnight it was pretty loud and my kids had a hard time sleeping but overall it was great !
ScoutMy family has camped here for three years and we love it. We rent a canoe and paddle all the way down to the furthest campsites. The ability to hike to your spot or canoe makes it a blast, and it is a nice stepping stone to full backpacking if you ever want to get there.
For the past two seasons there was a Loon on the which is always a plus.
The toilets are great and fresh water is available from a well were you park. One of the greatest spots we have found.
ScoutMy family and I go here every year durning the summer. Big campsites (must of them are shaded), great for tent or RV camping, easy parking in sight. Great lake for swimming. Lots of things to do, very friendly staff, clean bathrooms located all around the campground and even a bigger bathroom with showers.
ScoutMy family and I enjoy going here durning the summer. Always clean campsites and bathrooms.
TravelerSo peaceful and serene
TravelerI had many sites to choose from. Definitely remote and private.
RangerThe campground is secluded and quiet, lots of trees and the pond is pretty. There is a good hike around the pond (2.5 miles or so) with cool pull offs for wildlife spotting (we saw two loons fishing for their baby).
Site 73 itself had the camp beach access which brought some people in close proximity but they were all respectful. The beach is more of a muddy, rocky, bay but shallow enough for wading.
Fire wood seemed expensive for what we got ($9 per bundle).

Road considerations: Some campgrounds have challenging access roads.
