Anchored in a muddy bottom with a firm hold. Near by, there is a quiet private marina about 100 feet away, and a quiet nearby dirt road leading to a residence on the north side. Neither were used during my overnight stay, however did distract me from remote beauty of the anchorage.

Lots of nature in the surrounding trees, including blue herons, and wading birds in the lily pads.
