We were able to reserve site 1 and it was very nice. It was close to the pit toilets, and had a nice beach.

Beautiful area. Lake is extremely busy on a holiday weekend but the island still feels a little like an oasis.

Incredible views, remarkably clean outhouse, and lots of chopped firewood for us to use! It was a dream getaway for us, I only wish we could go back again this season!!

Overall stay was nice. Smoker lady working the shack handing out permits was a little abrasive and kinda on a power trip at times with others.
