Lovely quiet spot. You feel like you're well away from civilization, but are only 10 minutes from Ulverstone. Friendly host. Would definitely stay again.

4 nights at Rocky Cape Tavern and Caravan Park

Great location! Very close to Rocky Cape National Park which is amazing but has no camping facilities, so Rocky Cape Tavern and Caravan Park was a nice find. Stanley is only a 22 minute drive and has plenty to explore. Excellent value sites, powered or unpowered, good facilities for their age. Spacious and hassle free. The on-site tavern has a good and friendly vibe and nice meals.

Weekend Trip to Smithers farm

We really enjoyed camping at Candys place. The river flats were beautiful and it was very peaceful. Plenty of space for campers to spread out but still have river frontage for each camp.

Easy access and very close to Ulverstone, although you wouldn't know it from your riverside camp. Our camp-site was only metres from the river and completely hidden from the outside world.

We enjoyed the peace and quiet there, and were on our own. All we could hear is the creek, the crickets and the wind in the tall gum tree. It is a great spot to get away, and is only ten minutes out of Ulverstone. Candy was very helpful and welcoming.
