Simply amazing
We loved The Billabong. They had a pizza night on Wednesday where we met other travellers and locals. The site was spacious and had everything we needed. We’d highly recommend and come back again.

Great camping on a grassy patch down near the water. Amenities were well used but clean. Very friendly staff!

This is a magical spot and it’s being upgraded too. The owners are dreaming big here! Has a cafe with limited opening hours, really good amenities and is pet friendly. You won’t be disappointed!

Loved this camp site! Carmen is a great host. I didn't know that there were occasional events at the Billabong Cafe. Was a lot of fun. Highly recommend. My only small gripe is the floodlighting, which is a little intense but also not a big problem. Other than that, it's a great camp! Nice people!

Unfortunately not recommended
The location and nature were very beautiful! Unfortunately I can't recommend it as everything is very outdated and run down. The plumbing was absolutely terrible!!!! There was no lighting!

One of my favourite places to stay. The site is run by dedicated staff, friendly and helpful. Checking in requires a bit of figuring out but I found that a generous amount of common sense and taking the time to read the instructions at the check-in cafe helped. 😊 I loved the sound of the birds in the morning and the view over the little lake and river is special. Rustic is how I would describe the facilities and this adds to the charm of the place. Don’t just book 1 night, book 2 as you get to know the place and the people you’ll be glad you did.
