General description: It is a great site for larger groups of 4-6 people. Perfect for families, small portage and paddle, and great swimming and wildlife. The site is very level with lots of room for tents, chairs, and activities. The thunderbox is a little in the open, basically directly on one of the main paths about 50 yards from the main area.

Overall accessibility: Short portage and paddle to get to.


Bay to the southeast .. good 'moose-viewing'.

Perfect sunsets every night!.
