It was such a comfortable, well kept and lovely campsite. We got held up in the day so could only check in late but Doug was so great and helped us check in with ease. The toilets were the best we’ve experienced on this island. So clean and the showers were really warm it made camping so hassle free and enjoyable. A PLACE YOU MUST STAY WHEN TRAVELLING THE EAST COAST OF TASSIE

Scamander Sanctuary Caravan park is well set out, toilet and free shower facilities are clean and modern. Great safe playground for kids. Able to ride bicycles around the park. Maybe a 10 minute walk to the beach, but beach was raging with big and fast waves, being not safe for swimming. Short walk to local cafes. Friendly staff. I definitely do not recommend the use of Hipcamp to book any camping or caravan bookings. Hipcamp is a total rip off!! Much better to book your own accommodation.

The park is very clean and well organised. The facilities are of a high standard. We went on a long weekend but still found the park very quiet. If you head to this region visit the Winifred Curtis REserve - the bird life is amazing! We really enjoyed our stay.
