Most of the others include guide service. So if you are trying to save some bucks, you can go to Cougar Creek & camp there. It's about 4-5 miles up from Critter Cove. I have only been to it by water. I have heard that last section is dirt road & fairly rough. So only those with smaller boats use it. It has a single dock about 70' long. Camping on the primitive side. There are ususally about 15-20 boats/groups there. You could also try staying at the small town of Tahsis, but that would leave you with a pretty long run each day to the fishing grounds.
