Imagine having access to a 4-acre campsite all to yourself, with views of the mountain ranges and kangaroos and birdlife to greet you in the mornings—all just minutes from the beach! And yes, it’s dog-friendly!
Escape at Agnes is a 4-acre property featuring beautiful gum trees, a dam, and plenty of space for a boat, large caravan, or camper.
The site has no amenities, so you’ll need to be fully self-contained/off-grid, and remember to take all waste with you—leaving without a trace.
There are several areas to set up camp, though we think the best spots are on the topside of the block overlooking the dam.

23E was a quiet site while we were there but there were a few factors to consider.
We found the site very Rocky which made setting up a tent difficult.
It is a short distance from the bathrooms and camp kitchen. Maybe about 200m downhill.
Other than that, the site was good as we could bring our dog.
I would recommend this site for a stay of a few nights.
