Beaut spot
We had a fantastic one night stay at Camp Coodlie. We loved the location - a quick drive to Talia caves, the rock pools and the beach where our boys had their first swim of our trip. We had a campfire, admired the skies at night and loved the camp kitchen. Would definitely recommend if you want to get away from the crowds.

The camp was excellent with good facilities. Heaps of room to be isolated if you wish. Close to the Talia Caves and other beautiful locations

Good basic farm camp
A rustic farm stay but with good facilities and amenities including toilet, bucket shower and kitchen. Quiet location was very relaxing

Absolutely loved it. We were lucky enough to have it to ourselves for the first couple of days and it was delightful. The hosts went out of their way to make our stay amazing. The proximity to Talia Rocks was fantastic (look out for Bobtails on the way) and the short trip to Venus Bay was both handy and beautiful. Could not recommend it more if you're looking for that bush camp vibe.

A bit of a shame I was only here for one night, lots to explore in the area. I think this campsite would be fantastic with a bunch of friends. The bucket shower was a bit of a novelty but were surprisingly effective.

Bush camping with little ones!
We’re a family of four (2 adults, a 1yo & a 3yo) & we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The camp kitchen, toilets & bucket showers were all above adequate given the style of campground. There was plenty of room for our little ones to explore. We were fortunate to have mostly good weather conditions, though windy towards the end of our stay & lots of flies! One area that could benefit from would be clearer descriptions of the beach track, particularly how far it is from the main campground. We stopped by the office three times & no one was there to ask, so we took the track on in our Commuter van. It was certainly worth it in the end, Talia Beach was beautiful!
