I know where the cove is, not familiar with the old guard shack mentioned though.

Coon Creek Campground is prone to flooding during high water events. The gate and gate keepers camping areas have been moved South a couple hundred yards to an area that has never flooded.
The old guard shack was typically seen with just the peak of the roof above water. Mold was a big issue for those working inside. Lowest spot in the entire campground.
The boat ramp that has silted in and unusable has been replaced with a new ramp in the open lake and not in the cove where it was originally placed.
The area is heavily wooded along the feeder creeks and lake frontage. I hope they find the person wandering around still in good health.
