We absolutely loved our 4 night stay by the creek. The sites were very clean and tidy, well spread out with picnic tables and benches scattered for those wanting them. Bagged firewood was also readily available. Our hosts Shayne & Kim gave us easy directions to the sites and were so friendly. We will definitely be going back.

What a great spot! Had a nice night time fire, and a morning creek shower to wake up. Shayne met me at the gate and I had a nice chat to him. Will be back!

The site was very well maintained and peaceful. It was located next to a little running creek which our little one very much enjoyed. Shayne was a great host and we will definitely be back.

Owners Make It Special
Such a lovely place with lovelier owners. Shayne and Kim were so welcoming and went out of their way to make our daughter’s weekend extra special. The camping area was beautiful with grassed areas freshly mowed, a crystal clear flowing creek, fire pits, shade, plenty of space and not overcrowded with bookings (approx. 10 sites in total). We had a wonderful weekend and will definitely be back. Thank you Shayne and Kim, you both really make your place extra special. Our only hope with all your great reviews is that we can still get in in the future.

Lovely large grassed camping area down by the river. Shane is a great host and full of interesting knowledge of the local area. Good location to stay if you want to explore the adjacent National Parks.

Wonderful campground, would recommend to anyone. Upon arrival I met with Shayne and he was lovely to meet, very friendly. I stayed along the creek and it was quiet and a beautiful scene- a nice property to explore too. Directions were simple to follow and I had no issues with access using my 20yr old Mazda 3. I had lots of privacy as well! I will be back :)
