Perfect Stay for our 7m campervan

We had an amazing stay at the Forts campsite in our campervan! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel at home, even sharing fresh eggs from their free-roaming chickens. The location was serene and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The bush shower was surprisingly comfortable and added a touch of adventure to the experience. :) We honestly wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a fantastic night stay at Tee's accommodation on Magnetic Island. Tania and Steve were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay so wonderful. The accommodation was absolutely beautiful. Tania & Steve couldn't have been more helpful. We were really tight on time and wouldn't have managed to see much of Magnetic Island, but Tania & Steve very kindly drove us around and showed us places we wouldn't have got to see. They even took us koala spotting!! Tania & Steve were the best hosts ever and we really appreciate everything they did for us. Thanks so much. Katie, Charlie, Jess & Thomas

Family from the Surf Coast VIC

We had a wonderful stay on Magnetic Island. Tee and Steve were very friendly and welcoming. Making our stay very enjoyable. No access to power suited us fine. The bush shower on the property was lovely and refreshing. The site was large and the communal sitting area was a great space for our kids to play. We did the Island Time boat tour - kids had an absolute ball - spotted turtles, stingrays, amazing fish and beautiful coral. Also did a spot of fishing. We swam everyday in the nets and at Alma bay. Did not spot a stinger (nov) Forts walk was great and we ate out at some beautiful restaurants - Batefoot, Saltwater - and coffee in the morning at Tiny Palms (they have a pool) was perfect.

Great camping!

We loved absolutely everything about that camping! Tee and Steve were there to show us around and answer any questions we would have. Also the place is just perfect! You can even stand there while not self contained (with a little bit more of effort). Tee and Steve also gave us some great tips for the island and we wish we could have stayed longer than two nights.
