Camp Notes:
Fantastic campsite, definitely 5+ stars. Perfect for large groups, loads of tent pads and infinite hammock locations. Large private sandy beach front, which makes for excellent boat landing and swimming. Bald eagles live nearby, so you'll probably see them. Amazing fire pit, protected under heavy tree shelter. There is also awesome fishing all around this campsite, within 5-10 minute paddle. My group of 5 caught 25+ fish in 2 days all within very close paddle distance of camp. Also great views of sunsets from camp. There is an island near by (5 min walk) with a rocky path out to it, which has great fishing. I could go on and on, but you get the picture, this place is awesome. We spent 3 nights here, and would definitely go back.

Gorgeous beach site! Long sugar sand beach. Fire grate is close to the water but, is well sheltered by some nice mature cedars. There are trails running in every direction leading to the point and the campsite around the peninsula. Several nice tent pads are tucked away in the lush grove of mature cedars. Almost no need for a tarp.

Great site with crescent sand beach, cedar grove, and room on the shorelines to explore. Good access to fishing areas. Spent a layover day here but could have spent a week. Campsite very sheltered from west and south winds.
