Need to Know

  • Due to current Recreation.gov system limitations, this site is listed as a group site, however the maximum group size is 6 and it does not resemble a group site but rather a very small site.

  • This site has large hemlock surrounding it, not much understory, and is good for sunrises. There is not room for more than two tents at this site. The landing is sandy and nice for swimming. Cedar 1 and Cedar 2 have separate landings.
