Bay side back country campsite

Got lost on my way here to camp, but I got to watch horses rolling around in the dirt and swim. My camera died before I could take pictures. Be aware not to take a hammock tent or hammock as there is no place to put them (they damage the trees). Downside is Pope Bay is a bit confusing to get to so I would suggest GPS and a map. Not too buggy in camp but still adequate protection for the elements is a must. There is a fire ring and very well taken care of Chem toilet that doubles as a protective bunker against horses. Great place for crabbing, fly fishing, or duck hunting. If you are kayaking or canoeing to get here I would suggest planning for 6 hours due to finding the place and breaks; it is haul to get here around 10 to 11 miles straight as the crow flies, longer if your are paddling the coast.
