Wonderful spot, would recommend!

5 m travel trailer · Group trip

We just spent the long weekend at this camp with a group of 10 (5 vehicles and 5 caravans). We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the camp and surrounds especially a great couple of morning walks in each direction. The camp is very private and surrounded by the creek on 3 sides with various access points which are reasonably easy to navigate. There is a great big fire pit and we were able to collect plenty of firewood ourselves. The communication with Sam was excellent and he was even flexible with a later check out which was appreciated.

The perfect spot! Surrounded my Merrimans Creek. Hardly a noise while we enjoyed our stay, only the birds and the creek. This place is fantastic and we will definitely be back!

Great little secluded gem

7 m pop-up camper · With kids

This has to be my favourite hip camp we have visited. The creek runs right around and sets a beautiful calming mood, plenty of space for kids and dogs to play. We found some light 4x4 tracks to explore around the area as well. Can’t wait to return

Epic Secluded Camping

7 m pop-up camper · With kids

We had an awesome weekend at Merrimans Camp Ground! Beautiful, hidden piece of land with Merrimans creek running around the camp site, we had 2 vans setup and there was room for many more. Bit too cold for the kids to have a paddle this weekend but it would be perfect when it’s hot! Had a crack at fishing but no luck this time, it rained most of the weekend but we still enjoyed the property! The host was very helpful and polite! This property really is a gem, 1 booking only site so completely private and it’s all yours! We already plan to make many more trips here!
