Customer Reviews
It’s extremely beautiful! The camp site that they have listed was flooded with water. So we stayed right next to it. Definitely recommend it was just us which made it nice.
Stunningly beautiful location in fall!!! There weren't many sites and was very quiet!
Sites aren't well defined. Nither are parking spaces, but on a weekend towards the end of July there was only one other group out there. Water was glassy and beautiful, the woods were deep and quiet. Vault toilets were clean and smelled nice.
It is a beautiful place, but so so many mosquitos. It was like a horror scene. Did not enjoy at all.
We love to camp at red squirrel because there is a spot big enough for a large family near the bathrooms. There is also a lake but with no fish so we couldnt fish, too much moss. There is another spot across the laake that is smaller and also has bathrooms.
