It's a magnificent location, right on the riverbank. The camping area was extremely well presented. Lionel was very easy to deal with, he met us at the gate and showed us to our camping area. Fire pits were provided. Easy access to the river with our kayaks for a relaxing paddle. During our stay we observed kangaroos and goats drinking on the other side of the river. The bird life is amazing, from sulphur crested cockatoos, kingfishers, parrots and a hawk's nest right near our site where we watched the mother feeding her babies. We had an amazing holiday, Lionel is the perfect host of his little piece of paradise.

Really enjoyed our 3 day stay. Vast space, pretty scenary and solitude. Whist being isolated, the camp sites are well maintained with lots of options. Just be aware its a 17km drive in on a dirt road which is in reasonable condition. Also zero connectivity (which was a great thing!!) if this presents an issue for others.

Great space. Lovely views and you get mobs of roos pass by, a quick visit from the horses in the morning,and plenty of stars and wildlife in the evening/night. Our 2 dogs loved the swim in the dam. Not far from the small town with all you need. Very private. We were only campers on site for 2 nights 😁. Firepits supplied and an interesting drop toilet. Land was flat enough for our caravan. Choose carefully when you come as there a lot of bindies, unfortunate for our dogs but we know now. Definitely would book here again, loved it.

We had a wonderful stay at Mark & Siv’s down near the dam. The kids had the best time splashing in the dam and taking the boat out for a paddle. We enjoyed chatting to Mark while he showed us how to roast coffee beans – so informative – while the kids enjoyed a few games of ping pong. The area is also perfect for fossicking, and being dog friendly made it even better for the whole family. The sunsets in the afternoon were absolutely incredible. Such a great family-friendly and quiet spot. Thanks Mark & Siv!

Didn't have any luck with the fishing ... but we are the worst fishing people of all time ;) We only stayed one night this time, but we will be back again soon and will stay longer next time!
