The campsite at Little Todd Harbor turned out to be my favorite of the entire trip. Dry ground, no synthetic noises, and a fire pit ringed with logs perfect for sitting - a campsite can't get much better than that. And the cherry on top: hardly any wind blew in from off the Lake, allowing the campsite to be several degrees warmer than the previous night.
