Camp Notes:
Great views. Have the island to yourself. The only downside is that the tent pad options are limited and not on high ground. We had lots of rain and got wet in the tents. Otherwise it was spectacular. Amazing smallmouth fishing right off shore and all around the island. Caught dinner every night right from shore.

Nice level area from landing to fire grate. 3-4 level tent pads just back from the grate area. Follow the west shore to the south for a very nice view of the sunset.

Camp Notes:
Nice canoe landing. One of the better kitchen areas I've come across. Only drawback is there isn't a great view from the firegrate. Plenty of nice trees around. Entire island can be explored without too much trouble.

Very easy landing rock. Fishing from the island isn't great, but you don't need to go far away before there are lots of big small-mouths.
