Originally settled in 1889 "Bobs Grant" this lovely property and the surrounding land was originally used for farming but is now mostly turf farms. Enjoy our little getaway down by the Hawkesbury River only 10 minutes from historic Windsor. A beautiful river shack for your use exclusively, including fire pit with direct access to the Hawkesbury river. Bring your caravans, tent or swag - all are welcome! Unfortunately, boats are not. Relax and enjoy the serenity whilst being only 1 hour from Sydney. We offer the site to one group only, a maximum of 20 guests. However note, we are not a place for rowdy groups and parties. Groups are welcome here to enjoy the time with their family and friends, play a little music and relax by the river. The river can get busy (which is great after the floods as it has been dead for so long) and so can the road across the river but if you are enjoying your family and friends you won't even notice! We have one basic toilet, and one river water shower available too! Please bring your own drinking water. You can bring your dogs, but they must be on a leash at all times. We have three little puppies that love to roam their property. We lock them up sometimes but most of the time they are just running around having fun. Minimum of 2 dogs per booking and they must be noted on the booking. ​Fires are only permitted when allowed, in the designated areas only.Originally settled in 1889 "Bobs Grant" this lovely property and the surrounding land was originally used for farming but is now mostly turf farms.

    Great venue next to river, very private spot and fantastic facilities. Highly recommend.

    We had a great time camping with four families! It’s a nice spot by the Hawkesbury River, and we loved having the whole place to ourselves. Everything is really well set up, with a covered dining area, pizza oven, BBQ, plenty of space to prepare food, a lovely fire pit and a clean bathroom that even has a hot shower! What made it especially easy for us was the location. It’s close to Sydney, with supermarkets and other conveniences only about 15 minutes away. It’s not remote camping, but that’s the trade-off, especially for families with kids. You get your own private spot by the river and all the fun of camping, with plenty of thoughtful conveniences.
