Not Cross Corner but definitely the closest guess so far.
This WiA lake and Cross Corner Lake have two things in common.

Not Kennedy. While it's 'out of the way' it is part of an official canoe route within the boundary of Algonquin.
Lol Keg.. fair enough. How about south of all guesses so far?

South of Big George

Not Canoe.
RCSpartan is on the right track with his Big Bissett guess.. not because it's in that area, but because it's 'out of the way'.

Not HFL or BB..

They are alive and well in Huntsville, I can tell ya that.
Was stacking wood this afternoon and the black flies were buzzing around me like sawdust blown from a power saw.

No worries - none taken. We can continue this discussion on reddit through messaging.
But I will quickly point out..
a platform that represents individual opinions instead of representing the overall community.
This is already inaccurate based on the replies and opinions above. Some for it, some against it, some for it with a caveat, some dead against it. That doesn't seem like an individual opinion. Besides, nobody has removed your content - just the marketing.

Why don't I like these things? I can't explain it. Rubs me the wrong way for some reason. On the other hand, I'm always ready for a recommendation. The other day I asked Peek for campsite recommendation on Louisa. He recommended a site. I was happy and grateful. A short while later he sent me a link to a detailed campsite review of the same site. I didn't read it. Not going to. I'm weird.
Same here man. To each their own but I find this type of initiative detrimental to Algonquin for a variety of reasons. It's why I removed a similar post on reddit. I don't think this is a good thing - at all. (lol yes, despite me sending you that link).

Nah, I say forest roaches.
But do go on and tell me all about what I, and several others have seen, but you admittedly haven't.

I welcome a rational discussion on this point if you have personal experience with this, Peek
I do have experience with this. I am the reason the note was originally included. On a trip to Catfish Lake in 2013, I observed cockroaches all over the main area of the campsite. It really threw me off and I was confused as to how this could even be possible.. I never considered the following: these aren't your typical 'house' roaches. They are 'forest cockroaches'. So personally, I don't think it's anything to be concerned about. I stayed there again in 2017 - didn't see any roaches. But a report from a tripper who stayed there last year confirmed they saw roaches.
So it's not about 'keeping people away' at all, in fact Jeff goes out of his way to show all the cool areas - he's not the type to make something up to mess with people.

Nice little campsite there. During my stay, wolves could be heard almost all night.

Poor Jeff got sucked into including that "factoid" largely to reduce the number of trippers and impact on this beautiful site
This isn't accurate. That note was not included to reduce impact or discourage trippers. But I'll let Jeff clear that up if he wants.

I haven't done that little stretch from Farm to Shirley yet - but I've heard good things about Bridle.
There's a new WiA up, lets keep going with that one
