Stayed there five or six years ago and loved it. Canoed out to
deserted island and spent day hiking and fishing. Drove into Ely
and visited Timber Wolf Center. Many resturants in town and lots
to see.<img src="http://www.airstreamforums.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" smilieid="4" border="0"><br>
<br>
Since then the campground has been redone and is listed as one of 100 best campgrounds in US.<br>
