First time dispersed camping

After scouting different campsites around this area I was really hoping to get to stay here and when we went to set up the spot was available and I was beyond ecstatic. This was a gorgeous campsite with an easy walk from the car to the site. Large area for tent and living space. Fire pit with 2 grill tops to put over the fire. Picnic table as well which was perfectly placed to face the lake. Spot also has a thunderbox for doing your business so that was helpful. The lake access as well directly from the site was awesome and allowed us to keep our canoe there and go out fishing on a private lake. I did not want to leave this place and I will absolutely be back to either this spot or similar spots near

Crystal clear Lake

Beautiful lake. Large parking area for oversized rigs. Camping is not allowed in the parking area but a small walk to the lake provides a decent tent site.
