Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
The bird-life is booming, the stars are doing their brilliant best, so now is a great time to visit. The camp-ground is 2WD, caravan, RV and large vehicle friendly, nestled in behind sand-hills, comfortably secure and conveniently located a few hundred metres from the Mannum-Sedan road. Sites are well sheltered and easily accessible, with most sites suitable for larger vehicles. Where possible early check-in and late check-out are available to allow you the most time to enjoy your holiday. We have introduced a special overnight 'traveller's rate', in after 3pm and vacate by 10am, details in site listings. Sites are restricted to one van, RV or tent per site. If you have a group booking, please contact us to discuss suitable sites. With some 20 acres of undulating sandy mallee, and 60 acres of paddocks cultivated to grain crop, Currawong Corner provides a restful stopover. Named after our resident Currawongs, a native bird often mistaken for the more common Magpie, we also regularly have kangaroo and many different bird species. Located between the Barossa and the mighty Murray, Currawong Corner is situated within the River Murray Dark Sky Reserve, so bring your telescope to enjoy our night sky. At this stage we have bush drop toilets however we suggest campers being their own porta loo. Dump points are only about 15 minutes away, as are shops, pubs and fuel. There are no shower facilities, We can provide non-potable bore water by arrangement at the house. Camp-fires are at the discretion of the host and permission must be requested prior to lighting a fire. Pets are welcome but must not harass animals or other campers. Please feel free to take a walk around the property.

Traveller's Rest (3pm till 10am)
A great spot for an overnight stop. We went there to see a meteor shower happening in the area and were treated to an amazing light show from the Aurora. Facilities are basic but adequate enough for a one night stay. The hosts are super friendly and very welcoming. I would definitely stay there again, especially if the stars are aligning for a night of star gazing. It's conveniently located an hour from the city but within the Dark Sky Reserve.

Great bushcamping with doggos
We loved camping under the stars at Neil and Margaret's bushcamping. The camps were very well set up and we loved the fact we could do a fire also and Neil had organised firewood for us for arrival which was greatly appreciated. The highway is quite far away but you could hear the trucks in the far distance. That didn't bother us though, in fact the lights of the carriages were pretty cool to watch at night time. Big bonus for being dog friendly and we'l be sure to return one day.
