Hi All,

My two daughters in college are joining me for a week in the BWCA in late July. We have a permit for Farm Lake. Some maps show a campsite on Eswagama Lake while others do not. It appears the campsite should be located slightly south of the lake's midpoint on the eastern shore.

Can anyone confirm if it is indeed there? Will it fit two tents? The lake looks shallow and the MN DNR fish report says there are some panfish and a few hammer handles swimming around. Any additional information about the lake is appreciated!

I did find a thread from three years ago with a little bit of information. Anyone have anything more recent?

There was one there a handful of years ago when we stopped. Trip report

As I recall it was a pretty decent site. 3-4 star


Haven't heard any reports that it has been removed, but haven't been back since so...

Thanks, TB, one of my favorite trip reports of yours! The black and white photo of your daughter is just perfect! There are several other photos that make me want to go back in the fall. Always appreciate the details you include.

We'll plan to travel through and if there is a campsite, and it's open, and we are ready to stop... we'll do it!
