We had lovely 4 nights at Surfside, the powered was level with concrete pad. Power, water and waste close. The amenities were modern and clean. Overall I was so impressed, our stay surpassing any caravan park we’ve stayed at since being on the road for 13 weeks. The beach is stunning.

Love this place. Our second time here and plan to make it an annual thing. Wide open spaces, Lush green grass. Wombats, kangaroos, cows and the odd fish or two. Michele and Bill are super friendly. And Bill is very generous with the firewood.

Babbling Brook was such a beautiful hidden gem with secluded sites which made it feel very spacious. Having our own spot by the river was amazing and I could hear the fishing jumping in the early morning. Caught lots of fish from the little jetty that comes with site 2. Very lovely hosts that provided great firewood and delivered straight to the camp site!
