I've been to the wilderness camp a few times. There are 5 cabins with wood stoves although I've never used the stoves and 4 plywood bunks. There are picnic tables and fire pits. There isn't power or water. Everything must be boated into and out of the camp across the lake to the sand river which is a few miles away.

It is rustic. Treat it like you were going on a trip in an outfitters tent where you had to pack everything in by boat. Air mattress, bedding, tarps, axe, generator, lights, and so on.

The road to the main lodge can be dicey when it rains. A half ton 4x4 is required a lot of the time to make it there. You park your truck at the main lodge, load your boats and go. You can boat back to the main lodge and buy fuel, ice, and get wood.

Fishing can be very good. Just ask the guys at the lodge dock who work there where to go. The main issue is wind. It's a large lake without a lot of cover. Sometimes even making it to the tent camp or leaving the camp is dangerous in a small boat.

Good luck if you decide to go and hopefully you get good weather.
