No reservations are taken here - my kind of place! We pulled in shortly after lunch and had no problem finding a nice site. We opted for site D-10. Date of visit: Mar 2008 |
|
|
Sites D11 and D13 back up to Open Pond.
|
|
|
Back a bit from the pond are sites, such as D19 and D20, with a nice mix of sun and shade.
|
|
|
C15 and C16 are very nice waterfront sites. |
|
|
The red pickup is on C15. |
|
|
If you like a nice open site, then C30 is a good choice, as is C18 just beyond it. |
|
|
If privacy is your thing, there are a number of sites in the woods with greenery to shield you from your neighbors. This is C36. |
|
|
I'd rank C23 as one of the prime waterfront sites. |
|
|
Although most of loop A is very primitive, it does include these two waterfront sites (no hookups). |
|
|
Most of the Loop A sites consist of just a gravel parking space carved out of the thivk woods. |
|
|
There are three bathhouses in the CG. This is obviously the oldest one. But it does have hot showers. |
Here is the newest bathhouse, with individual shower rooms. |
|
This gives you an idea of how the campground sits along the southern shore of Open Pond. |
|
Here's an overall view of Open Pond - a nice walk can be had around its grassy shore. |
|
