Algonquin & Beyond

Big Porcupine Lake – Campsite #3

This campsite, like its next door neighbour Campsite #4, has plenty of seating around the fire pit suited for a large group, and no shortage of tent spot options. It’s also quite large and exposed, but also has lots of good tarping options. As similar as it is to Campsite #4, it’s basically the less desirable version. It has a worse canoe landing with a steeper climb up to the site, and the rocky shoreline isn’t as impressive. I definitely wouldn’t call this a bad site though, as long as you don’t mind the poor landing and climb up.
