Site Recon?

Planning has begun for annual fall trip. 6 to 8 guys. Any suggestions or sites to avoid  around Red Rock lake, Happy Isle or Merchants? I think the Opeongo Taxi may come in to play. Likely base camping with day trips.

Re: Site Recon?

highly recommend the taxi if you are on the fence about it .. .it can take a pile of gear and people a big distance .. and put you in good fishing  and wildlife viewing territory a lot quicker ...

Stayed at the island site on Happy Isle Lake in 2013 - with the 'Delamater Plaque'.

Typical island campsite problems with a lack of firewood and a steep climb into the site but there was adequate tenting opportunities. This site had a massive spider population which conflicted some members of our group. I kept telling everyone that the spiders will keep the mosquitoes away but other members were quite terrified of the spiders.
