Easily accessible by 2WD as long as its not too wet. Suitable for tents, caravans, RVs etc Dogs allowed but must be supervised at all times and chained/locked up at night or if being a nuisance.

Gumtree Camp

The grass was so well maintained I went barefoot most of the time. The creek is sketchy to access but you can do it if you take your time and be sure footed and able. Probably only do it in dry conditions too as both banks are quite steep/muddy/slippery. Sit in a camp chair in the creek with a beer and the water flowing around your legs, you won’t regret it. As a solo female camper I felt very safe. There is a quiet road behind the paddocks ages away and this contributes to some very small light pollution with some headlights off in the distance at night, but nothing compared to my ONLY neighbouring campers at the next site 150m away, shining their fully sick, military-spec torch directly into my rooftop tent at around 8pm a good couple of times. Spotlighting is fun, but you got there during the day, you saw me all set up, you knew I was there. Maybe next time, don’t shine your torch in people’s camps. You upset my dog you ferals. This in no way detracts from the beauty and tranquility of the place and the warm hospitality of the hosts. Will be back. Thanks guys :)

Creek Bend

Highly recommended for family

The creek is my son's favorite place! He enjoys spending hours exploring and playing there. John and Halley are incredibly welcoming and kind, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. Wonderful place for kids!

Creek Bend

Absolutely beautiful spot at Creek Bend. Manicured camping area with a stunning flowing creek. Unfortunately our stay was cut very short due to the torrential downpour that hit the area. We will definitely return to this magical spot and enjoy the surroundings on offer hopefully in sunshine next time.

Old Stump

Old Stump site

We were met by John upon arrival who greeted us and gave us the rundown. Site was a beautiful big grassy area with heaps of room. There was a couple of ways down to the creek, both were quite steep however easy enough to negotiate. Lots of areas to explore in the creek and our 2 dogs had an absolute ball running and swimming. Great views over the mountains. Highly recommended a stay here. We’ll be back.
