Camping
There are 10 campsites on Tuscarora. The extreme eastern campsite should be used only in emergencies as the landing is quite difficult, requiring campers to unload while perched on a small ledge of granite and hoist their gear up a 10 foot cliff. The site itself is small and not ideal. The campsite on the northern shore, on the point of land near the portage from Missing Link, is nice, with a good rock for sunbathing and plenty of room. The island site is also excellent.

Fishing
Tuscarora is known for its lake trout fishing. Some large northern pike also inhabit the lake.
