In a quiet and private bush block at the end of a cul-de-sac lies a levelled flat space situated across the road from the river at 1770. You'll be sitting amongst the Australian bush with a white sandy river only a hop, jump and skip away. Walking tracks that meander through a scenic reserve to a headland with beautiful bay and ocean views are at your doorstep. There's space for a camper / tent / small caravan and car and if the tinny or boat doesn't fit there's often designated car parking spaces available on the road. Our neighbours enjoy a peaceful and quiet space and we ask all our guests to help respectfully maintain this.

Weekend Trip to Travellers Rest 1770 Eco Camping

Myself and my partner stayed 2 nights for a weekend getaway and were beyond happy with the stay. Mike and his family were extremely welcoming and there were more secluded spots available for privacy. It was a quick drive into town and the area was quiet and peaceful with plenty of lovely wide-life. The toilets and showers were a massive bonus and clean and tidy at all times. Although we didn’t use them the hot plates, microwave and kettle could be very helpful. We will definitely be back Thankyou Mike, Michi and family 😁

We chose this site due to the positive 5 star ratings on various camping sites. We definitely weren't disappointed!! It was an awesome campground. Michaela and Mike and their three children were most welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed Marks evening talk about the local area and the creation of their little piece of paradise. We are so glad we stayed here because it was only 5 minutes from town and the caravan parks in town had people packed in like sardines! We will definitely be recommending 1770 Travellers Rest Eco Campground to our family and friends. Thank you Mike and Michaela 😊

This place is in the best spot! It’s private and quiet all night. It’s a short walk to the beach and walking track to the head land. I’ve stayed at 1770 and Agnes before and this site is bigger than most of those it just has a driveway to get down and bush surrounding instead of other caravans. if you’re completely self sufficient and don’t want to be crammed in this place is epic! I would definitely recommend and stay there again! The kids loved it and it was such an enjoyable stay.

A beautiful spot that is a short drive from Agnes Water and 1770. The facilities are excellent- hot showers, camp kitchen. There are lovely walks around the property and plenty of flat spaces for a tent. Road noise is the only thing that is a bit of an issue. Earplugs! 😁

We had a very relaxing and peaceful stay. Michaela was very welcoming and the facilities were well laid out and well cared for. The grounds were beautiful - a truly stunning setting. My only minor downside was the traffic on the road was fairly busy and the noise, while not overwhelming, was constant.

I had a lovely stay at Finbay! Tanya gave me a buzz before, and I was saddened to hear people had been leaving the place in poor state with rubbish etc. Be better people! The place was very clean however and the site is lovely. Just up from the beach and beautifully secluded. Spot for a fire and an flat even site. Couldn't ask for much more!

We stayed with our 4 year old daughter for 3 nights on a nice Grassy spot near the dam. We found the park owners very nice and they explained everything on arrival , toilets and showers wear very clean and tidy as where the camp kitchen and the other facility’s . The board walk was excellent we walked it day and night with our daughter she just loved it. The night time stories were fun to recommend that you attend. The road gets a little noisy in the mornings but we will be back.
