What a special place!
A naturally beautiful and well maintained property, amenities are clean and tidy, lots of site options for setting up in relative privacy. The kids has a wonderful time in the water, would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.

Really beautiful camp site within the trees. Loads of space, beautiful trees, shade, nice camp sites with fire pit, and really clean showers. We had a great time as a family of 4. Highly recommend.

May be the best hip camp I've stayed at. Really gorgeous camping amongst the fruiting mulberry trees. Shayne and Melissa are lovely and very hospitable. The bucket showers are hot and work great, would advise bringing your own drinking water though.
