Nerrigundah
1 site · Tent200 acres · Nerrigundah, NSW
Based near Mount Utopia, Nerrigundah, we fell in love with our little sanctuary in 2020. There are two families Dwayne, Michelle, Robbie and Sharon and their four boys Blake, Taeg, Cooper and Flynn.
Campers at heart, we started spending nearly every second weekend in our campers and this lead to many a night discussing what else we could do to make this property a place for others to use. It is a work in progress and there is plenty more to come, currently there is a ablution block that is up near the old house site, we decided it was best to have the camp area closer to the river. We have since added a camp kitchen, large undercover area and two cabins (for our own use at this stage).
Enjoy direct access to the river plus more swimming areas on the property.
Campfires are permitted. There is some firewood on the property but probably best to bring some of your own.
There is Telstra service enabling mobile coverage if needed especially for emergencies.
4WDs are recommended to access this campsite. During the rain we recommend 4WD only. In dry you can access with an all wheel drive.
Please message us if you're unsure about weather conditions and
your vehicle.
Our little piece of Utopia is still a work in progress but is picturesque as well as peaceful.
Your furry family member is welcome to join you.
We hope you enjoy our little Utopia.
