The campground is next to little Redfish. No motorized boats or jets ski here. Mostly calm and quiet. The lake isn't too deep. Somewhere in the 25-30 feet. The hosts were great and welcoming. This is a reserved camp, so be sure to look ahead. You might be able to get an open spot at times, but it is often full.

Great campground, it's not on the lake, it sits on a bench above sockeye campground. Its maybe a 5 minute walk to the lake. Very quiet and peaceful. There are a few really good secluded spots at this campground compared to the other campgrounds on Redfish lake.
