This lake is beautiful! There are spots to pitch a tent as well as toilets to minimize impact. No 4WD or anything fancy is necessary for the main access road.

The fishing is usually slower than some of the other lakes but when you do get on or it's likely to be a big one. The boat ramp is easy to use.
