Hi was a pretty good spot to camp but unfortunately due to all the rain before we went up there was to much fresh water in the river which meant no fish and not to many crabs. But all up was good for a few nights.

Once you get into camp it's okay but the road in is disgusting with large potholes and very uneven in the lower camping area The road has not changed since the first time we visited The surrounding areas need to be slashed as they have grown up Top camping area is nice and green and flat Will go next door next time They have a decent road in and toilets

Very quiet and relaxing. Plenty of space. The driveway is a bit rough, drive to conditions. We'd definitely stay again.

I really liked it here, close to the river if you are into fishing and a nice, level camping area. It rained a lot a couple of days before I got there and the access road in has potholes with a fair bit of sitting water. I only have a 2wd car towing a camper trailer but had no problems getting in or moving around. Using this camp as a base there is a lot to see in the area, Burrum Heads, Toogoom, Hervey Bay etc. A really good, relaxing five days.
