Camp Notes: Great campsite, lots of space amongst the trees for tents and nice open kitchen area. Nice big rock beach to lay out on and dry clothes. Lots of trails and fishing around the island. Only down fall is that it gets tricky to land the canoe when the wind starts whipping.

Camp Notes: Great Camp Site, spent a few days on this island. Able to fish all around the area and saw almost no one. We did notice when it rained several of the "tent pads" filled up with water. also the wind rips up Friday bay from the south, which may be nice during the summer but less pleasant in the late fall.

Camp Notes: Landing proved to be a little treacherous in rough water. Fire grate is very exposed with no readily apparent tarp options nearby. Several large, top notch tent pads located in an enchanting grove of cedar trees which is also a great spot to hang a hammock. Trails run around the island, and there is a nice sandy beach (that can be hiked to)in the NW corner of the island.

Camp Notes: Would be 5 stars except the seating at the fire needs improvement. Positives for the site are - great and numerous tent pads. Prevailing winds keep the bugs at bay. Sand beach on north side of Island and fishing is great around Friday bay.

Camp Notes: Good sight with a hidden treasure. Go to the rocky coast on the left hand side of the landing, jump or canoe along these rocks all the way around. Eventually you will find a gently sloping sandy beach hidden away in the bay on the north side on the island. It's a very nice place to relax and out of the wind.

Camp Notes: Huge site with a nice granite "beach" landing area out front. Great for swimming and star gazing at night. Breeze from the south is perfect for cooling off the camp at night and keeping bugs at bay. Location is perfect for hot fishing spots in both Friday and Thursday bays. Fishing on the East side of the island was great. Nabbed and returned a 24" walleye 100 yards SE of the camp site the first evening. Watch out for strong south winds here. The long fetch down Friday Bay could make for rough waves along the granite beach. Very nice fire pit and cooking area. Had to use cedar trees for hanging food pack but it was OK. Raspberry bush ( pretty well picked over ) right in camp.
