Weekend Trip to The Y at Badger Head

A great experience - booked late on Friday night and host accepted the booking within the hour with no fuss, site is in an amazing location on the doorstep of the National Park and we were fortunate to have it to ourselves (plus a few curious wallabies for company).

Weekend Trip to The Y at Badger Head

This was a lovely spaced out area, although it was full there was enough space between sites and lots to choose from. It was within walking distance from a beautiful beach.

Perfect spot for camping. Nice and flat with plenty of protection from the wind. The beach is close and walking tracks with amazing views. Dog friendly is a bonus.

The park has a rustic charm. This place is definitely one for the kids. They'll love the tidal creek which is safe and loads of fun. Site #4 was a little tight to get into with our camper trailer but I was kindly offered others, we just couldn't pass up camping on the waters edge.

We couldn't resist setting up our camper trailer at the top of the block to take in the stunning view. The ground is uneven up top and wouldn't be suitable for larger caravans, but if you have a smaller set up and are wiling to play roulette with the wind then it has to be done. There is acres of level and protected sites down below. We were there for 3 x nights and only saw three other caravans come and go. The beach is great for kids, especially at low tide and the walk through the National Park is worth the effort for the coastal views. This place is quite and relaxing with limited internet coverage.

We had a good week camping here. Lovely and quiet spot with plenty of shelter. Just a 5 min walk to the beach. I know it's rustic but we were a bit disappointed that the grass wasn't mowed.

What a lovely peaceful spot! We stayed for 6 nights and it was a great base to explore the area. Loved our stay. One night it was fully booked but was mostly group bookings so everyone was in their own spots, so it didn't feel crowded. Would definitely stay again if we were ever in the area

What a gorgeous place to stay, plenty of room, great view from up the top or sheltered areas down the bottom of the property. Short walk to the beach, only down fall is no dogs on beach as it’s National Park but still plenty of areas to walk them on property. Definitely recommend and would stay again ☺️

Great Location,nestled in a lovely sheltered paddock with many areas to set up camp. 500 metres or thereabouts walking distance to a beautiful beach which was Great for a dip. Also a fantastic walk that takes you along the coastline of the Narawatapu National Park that goes all the way to Bakers Beach. Fantastic place for a few days.😁

Crayfish Creek is absolutely beautiful. The surroundings are peaceful and very scenic, and the river is crystal clear and so refreshing — perfect for relaxing and spending time in nature. Everything is well maintained, and the facilities are excellent and very convenient. It’s a perfect spot for families, couples, and anyone who wants a quiet getaway close to nature. We loved every moment here and would definitely come back again. 🌿💧
