If you look at the map, from the Jackson lake camp sites, its an easy paddle to the McGuffin portage. My sister does it every year in her kayak. The portage to McGuffin is a bit tricky to see among the reeds, look for the gap in the trees instead and aim for that.
If you want to save some time, you can trailer in your gear with an atv from the staging area to the Jackson lake camp/boat launch.
The trail in was just widened and resurfaced. I curious to what other improvements they made. When I called about the conditions of the outhouses, they were tight lipped about other things being done.
Good luck and enjoy the area!
