My sense is that the detergents and convenience (5-gallon cans are a pain and would need 3, towing out of camp = time/meh) may be worth just filling up on the go?
I think besides the convenience factor, the only other benefit is most gas on the lake has an added stabilizer in it. Also almost all gas on the lake is 89 octane also except at Y Landing which offers 93.

If you price 89 octane off the lake I think you will see maybe 40-50 cents per gallon difference without stabilizer. Hardly enough to make it worth lugging around gas containers!!
