Pulled into the lake lake late at night. Had a roof top tent so was easy to set up camp. Had a fire and went to bed. The lake had only a couple of campers on it, so it was nice and private. We stayed at the north beach campground. The wind though was terrible that night, obviously not the campground fault just Mother Nature. So ended up leaving early morning. But would definitely recommend going there and camping on the lake.

We stayed at site 60 at Spinreel sand camp. Lots of glass from bottles all over sand. Site has really degraded since we were there two years ago. Will definitely consider somewhere else next time booking on the coast.

There seemed to be an extremest political rally at this campground which seemed strange since it’s on public land and these people are generally against social programs.
