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.

Me and my partner spent our weekend at Scribbly gum for the first time and it was amazing. Phil was a really good host, keeping up to date and quick with responses. He also came around to make sure that we were all good with setting up and even gave some tips about setting up our pod. The walk down to the river was only short as well. Definitely recommend for other families with dogs as it is dog friendly and families as you can swim down by the river and lots of space to explore.

This is the third time we have stayed at the shack and will certainly not be our last. We love the peace and quiet, sitting by the river spotting platypus and birds. Delightful!
