Steffan's Island
        Steffan's had a beautiful camp made from large white pine logs. It appears that little maintenance was done after the death of Mr. Steffans circa 1975. Mrs. Steffans continued to visit the camp until about 1980. Some Steffans descendants were reported to have visited the camp in the 1990's and found the roof to be sagging badly. They were said to have propped up the roof with a long pole, but opted to sleep outdoors because the camp was so infested with mice and insects.

    As of August 2009, the camp is in a truly appalling condition as the following photos testify.
