This is a nice site with room for 3 or more tents, a good fire area, a nice big rock to hold gear and a sloping rock face for sunning, reading, etc. Unfortunately the landing/beach area is not good for swimming or fishing; shallow, weedy and a bit mucky. If this had deeper water and a sand or rock bottom at the landing it would be a 5 star site.


Here's a couple pics of the site and surrounding area...

This is the sloping rock leading to the shoreline...and some of the local wildlife from the area





This was a normal grayish rock during the daytime but the rays from the setting sun transformed it in to this interesting specimen... this is in view from the site to the East





A wider view showing Tiger Rock to the East.

When you come in from Allen, it's the first one on your right on the point. Here are a few views from the site.
