Great site and very close to Widgiwagan if you have kiddos out on their own adventure. 007 is superb.

Beautiful lake, campground and site. The walk to the site was longer than I expected. We definitely got our steps in!

#12 site.
Ok site, secluded from other sites.
A trek from parking space to campsite and an ungroomed steep, rocky path to the lake from that campsite (I'm sure it's not meant to be maintained by the park).
Cabins across the lake were kind of annoyingly loud (not all night).
If you want an awesome site with great view on a granite outcropping pick #7. It's a long trek from the parking spot to the site and a decline but worth the view (just pack lighter).
Fishing-don't plan on catching a lot. The regular campers even said so.
Overall, I won't return to this lake because of the trek up and down to the campsites by the lake front sites.
Plenty of other lakes to try!!
