This is a large sprawling campsite. Big enough to easily host a BWCA maximum group size of nine. The best tent pad is way back in the woods and you'll have to search a bit to find it. The kitchen area does not have a good view of the lake. There is no place to lay out at night and look at the stars; no open views of the lake except near the canoe landing spot. There are at three tent pads. You can probably find a couple more too if you get creative.
The landing here is moderately rocky. You have to lug your canoe up a small ledge from the water to beach it securely. This campsite is a little hard to see from the lake.
Nearly the same image as above, but now Alton Lake is throwing a bit of a hissy fit.
Shallow sandy bottom. Shoreline is large boulders that you'll have to do a very minor lift up to get canoe out of the water.
Fire pit is well into the woods, no lake views worth mentioning.
This tent pad is right next to the canoe landing.
Some nice tree roots and rocks to stab you in the back at night, so be wary where you pitch the tent on this tent pad.
The kitchen area. There are at least two places to put up a tent in this area too.
Another view of the fire grate area. The views of the lake aren't good from the kitchen.
Maybe the second best spot to pitch a tent. The best tent pad is down the trail out in the woods.
A few noteworthy pines standing over this campsite.
This tent pad is way out in the woods. Just follow the trail. Probably the best place to pitch a tent at this campsite.
