Site: 36E
Well, It was nice to be out. Site 36E is probably the worst site that the Sylvan Lake Campground has to offer. Now - it wasn't awful - but it wasn't fantastic either. Fire pit was on the opposite side of the camper, we had a hill on the door side and we were about 5 yards from the bathroom/shower area - so had a bright light shining in during sleep hours. BUT - we made do. ;)
We purchased a little visor for the Pod. What a GREAT addition as the tent room can be a real pain to set up. The little visor is super easy to set up and is totally self sufficient, no drilling into the POD, no added things necessary. Totally worth looking into if you are a POD owner and want some easy fast shade.
Had a nice fire Saturday night, friend came up to meet us for dinner. We had a delicious steak dinner cooked over the campfire that took us a few tries, a purchase of dry wood and about 55 paper plate burnings - but finally got a good blaze going.
Sylvan Lake had a LOT of traffic, we didn't go down there at all - just hung out, read and watched the fire. BUT - we will be prepared for the next trip as we purchased a canoe this weekend. Gonna have bars installed on the 4 Runner and go pick it up Tuesday afternoon. Super stoked to be able to enjoy MORE of these beautiful hills.
