This is a great remote campsite. There is plenty of room for a couple of families to set up camp and enjoy the lake.

We camped in site 1 at leg lake. The site is huge, has a primitive toilet which was very clean. Lots of trails going off the site to walk. 4 trails going down to the water to fish. Road going in and out was really good. Only downside is not really good beach spot if your looking to swim. Other then taht it was excellent! Nice and quiet. Hardly any traffic. We were there for 4days and we seen maybe 6 cars and 1 side by side. I am definitely going to go back for sure.

Very large and quiet campsite (#1). We only saw 1 truck go by each. The turtles were nesting at the campsite so we had to be very watchful of them but it was really neat to see.

site 2 with boat launch. Site was pretty busy with people fishing and site is very close to the boat launch. Otherwise nice small lake to kayak and nice camp site itself.

such an awesome place. it was so secluded, we saw two people our whole trip (only a day). We want to stay here again, it was so peaceful. I agree with the other reviewer that it was hard to find at first. But it was worth it haha. Right on the lake and beautiful morning and night. we stayed at #2, I'm not even sure where the others were but this one was amazing.

Very peaceful and secluded, took a minute to find because the road wasn't shown on my gps. Good amount of places that sold firewood on the way in.
