The campsite is situated on the beach, sheltered by the sheoaks in the back dunes. At the rear of the campsite lies a freshwater lagoon, locally known as the keyholes. Currently, two sites are available to be booked. A unique feature includes the opportunity for surfing, fishing, and swimming in your private lagoon. A short drive will take you to Point Lookout. Access is via the beach only and tides are a consideration. Please check "Point Lookout tides" on Willy Weather. I don't normally travel on the beach if the tide is over 1.5 metres.

Wonderful weekend get away
A hidden gem amongst the and dunes. Tappy has a fantastic bush camp set up. Camp kitchen with bush toilets and a donkey boil style hot shower. I would recommend booking both sites so that you have the whole site to yourself

Brilliant spot, well stocked
Great location. What a treat to have a private camping spot with ability to have a campfire + great facilities. Cooking / washing setup and toilets were clean and well stocked. Private location, didn’t hear anyone else the whole time we were there. John was very helpful and gave us great directions before and after. Had a great couple days camping. Would recommend

Mixed feelings
Mixed opinions about the site. It's advertised as having potable water, however the water is not safe for drinking, in other words, not potable. We were lucky the owner was there to let us know. We were also lucky we brought sufficient drinking water with us. It's good that there are facilities on site, the shower and kitchen area were welcome. The toilets were good, but keep in mind you have to work the toilets yourself, ie. It's a bucket system and you have to change the buckets yourself. The full buckets are kept in the open air for composting which can get smelly at times. The two sites are close to each other and there was not much privacy from the other family there. The site we got was not in great condition, we had to share it with an abandoned caravan, trailer and some rubbish in the form of an old mattress and other things. Not the best view. Other than that, the area surrounding the camp site is beautiful, the beach is pristine. We didn't get to check out the lake.

Great isolated spot. The amenities made the stay much more enjoyable, the bush shower was a bloody ripper! Fishing right out the front, fresh water swimming hole out the back. Peace and serenity as you listen to the wind blow through the She-Oak.

We had a great family stay at John's site. Close to the beach, plenty of space and the camp facilities made for easy camping. John was extremely accommodating and a great communicator. We'll definitely be back.

Great for a large group!
Nice secluded spot with a very usable undercover communal area. Easy walk to the beach. We caught fish out the front and enjoyed a fire of an evening. Would recommend.
