Absolutely beautiful. There's a very substantial dock that looks newly built that really ups the enjoyment factor of this backcountry site. The water is pristine and being able to jump in off the dock is a real plus. Tent pads are nice and well maintained. Another star of the show is the outhouse it's not just a portapotty it has an interesting design which makes it basically odorless. Very clean and nice seat as well. The 1 knock is that the bear bins and the food prep area are both just a little to close to tent pads for my liking. You can see the bear bins from tent pad 3 and the food prep area from tent pad 2. Made me extra alert for bears.
Very well maintained trail and beautiful view. Also a very easy hike
Fantastic lake. Rather interesting climb with all the switch backs, but worth the hike. Local deer are very tame, though just take your time and let them do their own thing as this is their home. The scenery amazing with the mixture of unburned forest and regrowth.
Great campsite. It's located an easy 2km hike in from the townsite which affords a level or privacy and nature which is not possible in the town, while still being quite accessible for most. Only four tentpads.
Very relaxing. Nice hike. But a little hard because of the snow!! Beautiful!!
