Weekend Trip to Brickella

Phil is a great guy with a beautiful property. He was really friendly and cool to chat to but laid back and easy going. The space is so big that you can easily find a private spot to your liking. The mozzies are hardcore but not a problem if you bring some heavy duty bug repellent. There were a few other people camping as it was peak season during summer holidays but we felt secluded in our own beautiful temporary home in nature… will definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Iggys Haven @ Anna Bay

Definitely recommend, had no place to stay and Nathan welcomed us instantly. Accommodated to our needs and helped us when our car was bogged. Great location, near the public but not too close. Not far from stockton, one mile, and samurai beach. Anna bay pub is about a 2 minute drive. Definitely would come back with friends.

Nathan went above and beyond to help up out and ensure we had a great stay. The areas are beautifully maintained and private. It is incredible being so close to the beach/shops etc then as soon as you’re back at camp you feel like you’re totally isolated (in a good way). Highly recommend!

I stayed in motorhome surrounded by graceful tall eucalypts, other natives and morning bird song. Host Nathan was friendly and very helpful. Place was extremely clean and other campers were well spaced for privacy and quiet. Unfortunately did not see any wildlife. Shops very close, easy drive to beaches.

What a spot! At Iggy’s heaven you want for nothing. The host Nathan is such a legend, provides a warm welcome into his Australian bush oasis. Would recommend staying a few nights as there is so much to do in the area. Cant wait to go back and explore more of what there is to offer. Cheers Nathan!

Weekend Trip to Brickella

Oh my god. Mosquito central! Phil the host is so lovely, and we really enjoyed staying here but man we were not prepared for the influx of the mozzies. None of our heavy duty repellants cut the mustard, and even our super smoky fires only staved them off for a little bit. We tried to go for a fish at the creek but could only last 10-20 minutes before driven out with bugs. One of our dogs broke out in a huge bumpy rash from them, and you could see a black cloud of them following the dogs everywhere even with repellant on them. We are avid campers, but have never experienced this level of them before. Mozzies aside, the camp site was so pretty. Lovely and flat, with beautiful bushlands around. The more private sites are towards the bushland, otherwise you’re very exposed. The camp was very well maintained and it’s clear Phil puts a lot of effort into this place. There was chopped up wood and limbs all over for firewood and he was more than happy for our pups to run off lead. The camp horse is also incredibly friendly and has to be one of the most tolerant horses I have ever met… not even tilting an ear at our boisterous dogs. We definitely would stay here again, just not any time at all near mosquito season!

Nathan is a proper legend and fast to respond to any questions or a chat. He offered to give us free firewood for the fire pits too. We will definitely be back to Iggy’s haven!
