Well maintained, super chill

When we arrived we were surprised to have a double site which gave us more than enough space to set up 3 tents and an extra for the dogs. The lake was clear, beautiful and warm! We spend hours floating around enjoying the views. The folks at The Beaver Lodge just outside of the site were friendly and helpful if you need any basics you forgot. The vault toilets were maintained twice a day all days we were there. Overall, fantastic experience!

Good layout close to lake

Only three first come first served sites here. Busy place midweek in July. The campsites have okay privacy. Mostly shaded with water/bathrooms and trash cans not too far away. The lake is only about a two minute walk from any site. Great swimming spot and nice shaded beach with grass. The Beaver Lodge store is about a 15 minute walk in case you forget something or want to buy some short order style food.
