About Ewing Point Campsite
There is a beautiful walk-in campsite located on Ewing Point on the north side of the 132 acre McKeever Lake. The grassy site is 50 feet by 75 feet, surrounded by cedar and hemlock. A fire ring , fire grill, lantern post, and picnic tables are provided at the site. Drinking water must be carried in. Water is available at Pete's Lake Campground. A wilderness toilet is available. The lake bottom is sandy and provides good wading. Be cautious when swimming because this area has not been checked for possible hazards and you swim at your own risk. McKeever Lake is a good fishing lake for musky, pike, bass, and pan fish. [Link to Map](http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_MEDIA/stelprdb5137020.jpg)
