Hi Liz, We've camped there many times. Remote sites R9 and R5 are the best on Big Island. I like the north part of the lake. Best site is Black Island R30, whole Island and a good setup, but it is very remote. Sites R28 and R29 in the north are great, but a mile or 2 in form the Errol Put in. For non-campers - Several options in Errol and along Macgolloway (Good B&B there with log cabins, but long paddle to lake and back). For camping & non camping south part of lake is best. North part is best for viewing, but a 12 mile round trip. It will be very cold, be prepared for near freezing temps at night. Lake can be like glass or really choppy in any wind. South part is best in wind since it's deeper and more Islands to hide behind. A must see is Matallik Island. It's private, but if owner is not there you can land. It has foundation of a grand old lodge and boat slip built into the island. Dan & Linda have been there more than I, I'm sure they will chime in as well. have fun, David Lothrop
