Real seclusion
If you're looking for a genuine backwoods camping experience, this is the place for you. Flush toilets and showers are a luxury you won't find here, but the trade-off is the unmatched seclusion.
It's a rare treat to be in a location where sight and sound of others are absent. While a few sites might have a neighbor in view, most offer exceptional privacy. Whether you're on an island or the mainland, you'll need to transport your gear to your site. Fortunately, the distance is short– only a few hundred feet for mainland sites.
The highlight, without a doubt, is the breathtaking view from all the sites. I can't emphasize enough how stunning it is– the beauty is truly unmatched. Set up your tent, let go of the outside and immerse yourself in the natural splendor. Discovering this place felt like stumbling upon a hidden gem.
The best
A wonderful wilderness campsite. The beauty of it is breathtaking and so close to nature's purity. The campsites are so well maintained and clean. A highly recommended stop for your summer adventures.

We have stayed at this reserve several years in a row, and have always enjoyed our trips. We’ve always brought our dogs and rented canoes for long weekends.
You can either stay on the mainland and walk your belongings to the site, or use the canoes to transport your gear to the island. We’ve loved both, but prefer the island simply because we know our dogs can’t go far!
The lake is great for exploring both day and night. I’ve personally never seen so many stars as I did our on the lake in the evenings. The sights are breathtaking and the area is great for relaxation.
The surrounding campsites are close enough to feel comforted, but far enough to avoid intrusiveness. There is also a shop within a quick driving distance to pick up any forgotten essentials.
