Give Crescent lake a try. It's just south of Baker lake and not too far south of Brule. Reserve-able sites and think there may even be a couple of paddle in only sites. I'd have to look through my notes I keep on each campground we visit. But I think we were at site 23? Looked the best of the campground.

Consider Two Island Lake as well. Some real nice sites right on the water. Arguably not quite as pretty as Crescent but better fishing.
We stayed at Birch Lake outside of Ely in early June and that was pretty nice too. Some real nice sites and a good fishing reputation.

Recreation.gov lists all the campgrounds. You can see maps and photos of sites, including which sites are available, and you can make reservations where possible. It will also show which sites are first come, first served.

Don't overlook the Rustic Campgrounds
Rustic campgrounds have fewer than ten sites and there is no charge for camping. Facilities include outhouses, tables, and fire rings but there is no drinking water or garbage cans. Sites are generally for tents, but some will accommodate a small RV or tent trailer. These campgrounds were often developed with fishing in mind, so be sure to pack your poles. Most rustic sites are located on the Tofte Ranger District and in the Isabella area.
Maximum group size of nine.
Only use the facilities that are provided for fires, tents, and waste.
Do not make additional fire rings, tent pads, trenches, or cat holes.
You will need to pack out your garbage.
Quiet hours are enforced at developed campsites. Be aware that sounds from your campsite including radios, generators, or musical instruments should not disturb other campers even outside of quiet hours.
