Remote yet crowded

We stopped at this boat-only campground for lunch on a triangle paddle of Lake Ozette. It’s a nice wide beach that makes for easy landings. On Labor Day weekend we could not get the required wilderness camping permit, and actually glad we didn’t. Even though it’s boat-in only, it seemed a little crowded. People had brought boatloads of people and gear over from the Swan Bay boat ramp, plus a dog, which I don’t think is allowed. The campsites are in the woods behind the beach. If we camp on the lake again we will go for one of the islands.
