Awesome place! This place was the only place that we could hear loons on our trip. We stayed here towards the end of the week trip. It was very clear the first night we were there. We were able to see the Milky Way in the night sky. Along with so many more stars that aren’t able to be seen in the city.

Nice campground in the Two Hearted area. Fresh water pump and clean twin vault toilets. Beautiful Pike lake. The only con would be all the local residences surrounding the campground... Makes it a busy (noisy) area! Overall a nice place to camp.

Campground is rustic, with less than 10 campsites. All but 2 campsites are lakefront, with the 2 non lakefront campsites being close to the outhouses. Boat launch ramp is nearby. Water pump not working, but signs are up stating that it will be fixed and to use a different water pump at a nearby campground. Lake allows for motorized boats like pontoon boats, with access for other residents on the lake. Depending on the time of year you come, bring bug spray as it may be needed. Visit was quiet, but could see how it could be noisy. The campground is good, just a little maintenance (weed whacking, leveling a campsite or two) to make it great.
