Beautiful spot - tucked away, with a pretty creek that you can explore and fall asleep to. And a little walk up the hill gives you views of the ocean. Alexandra was great at communicating with us ahead of the trip to make sure we knew where we were going and familiar with the spot before we arrived.

We have camped here a few times. We love that there is no phone reception and no facilities so it's all back to basics. Light a fire, play some board games or go for a drive to Victor Harbor. There is a little creek near the campsite for some soothing white noise all day long.

Phone reception and internet not great if this is an issue for you, wasn’t for us. Rob the host is a real gentleman.
