01/05/2021 08:39AM Our group of three entered through Snowbank on September 9th and planned on staying on Disappointment. We ended up going all the way to Ashigan before finding an open site. We were pretty surprised not to find any sites. Even sites on Parent and Asub were taken. Hopefully this year will not be as crowded as last year! |

01/04/2021 07:09PM One August, we took the very last site in Disappointment's NE corner. An okay spot. All other sites were filled. I take that back; the island site was open but found it to be covered with swarms of bees as we unloaded. And hastily re-loaded. |

01/04/2021 03:59PM Plenty of campsites, watch the wind on Snowbank,the 140r portage to Disappointment is pretty mellow, and they have a dock at the entry on Snowbank which I think sucks for a canoe. |

01/04/2021 03:44PM There are two sites on Parent that would be good backups if you can't find anything on Disappointment. Ahsub to the north has at least one, perhaps two sites if you are shut out. September should be lighter traffic on that lake this year. Last year was an anomaly (hopefully)! |

01/04/2021 01:40PM Voyageurs maps show eleven sites on Disappointment with two additional on both nearby Ahsub and Parent Lakes. Switching to Lake One will not guarantee an open campsite. You’ll be fine. |

01/04/2021 01:23PM My wife and I are planning a trip to Disappointment Lake on September 10th-13th but there aren't many campsites on the lake. Should we switch to Lake One entry point to ensure a campsite or will we be okay? |
