I hiked into this site form the West trail to check it out. The boat landing is pretty nice and would make a good place to launch or swim. The camping area is subpar however. There is a lot of open space however most of it is not flat. There is a small flat place on the north side of the launch and it gets flatter to the south towards the other sites. It is a good place if you want some privacy fr... I hiked into this site form the West trail to check it out. The boat landing is pretty nice and would make a good place to launch or swim. The camping area is subpar however. There is a lot of open space however most of it is not flat. There is a small flat place on the north side of the launch and it gets flatter to the south towards the other sites. It is a good place if you want some privacy from others and is totally usable. There is a fire ring and pit toilet at the site. There is a small unmarked and probably community made trail to connects to the sites further south. Overall this is a good place to stay especially for the price and lake access. If you have a larger camper you may struggle to find a flat spot but with a tent or smaller trailer you should be fine.
