This property is in Northangera with the Mongarlowe River running along the boundary. It's covered in trees and provides a pristine environment amongst the "Scribbly Gums". It has flat areas with plenty of free timber for the designated fire pits. I have tried to create a haven for wildlife including Kangaroos, wombats, echidnas and platypus. I cherish the cleanliness of the river and surrounds and wish to be able to share this special environment with others who care to preserve all it offers. You can explore the property along the tracks, paddle, swim or fish in the river, enjoy the fauna, wildlife and birdlife. Located not far from Braidwood, a town steeped in history, with good shopping, coffee shops and great food. Sloping to flat land amongst the Scribbly Gum trees offering a number of sites and walks through the property. It provides both sun and shade. Access is good for vans of any size along a track through the bushland. Lovely swimming spots in the Mongalowe River, beautiful clear water, and several lovely bushwalks around the property. We offer four sites and the maximum stay is 7 nights.

Nice bush camping spot with a friendly host. The river was a bit further than I expected it to be but it was still a very relaxing camp.

We enjoyed our stay at the rustic Scribbly Gum Cabin - the indoor wood heater was great, with plenty of wood supplied to keep us warm all night. What a beautiful peaceful and private spot, right on the river. The bird life was amazing. Probably the highlight was watching the Platypii in the river each morning and evening. The host, Phil was very friendly and gave us lots of information on the local area. It was great, very relaxing getaway.

Beautiful, quiet and peaceful camp. Phil was very friendly and helpful. Our little dog enjoyed the experience. We walked down to The Shack on the river, it looked idyllic! We will be back.

Great isolated camping spot. There is only a small bank by the river that is accessible so you can’t really hang out there, just access for swim. Directions were a bit tricky finding the street, maybe a sign off the road would be good. The provided fire pit was great, a really nice spot, would go again
