4 nights at Kingfisher Kampers, Nana Glen

Beautiful peaceful spot with access to your own bathroom and undercover area. Walked the dog through the property to explore the creek and river area. The local townships have cafes and bakery. Had access to power and water if needed. Thanks to Rob & Karel for their hospitality

1 night at Way Way Getaway

Great amenities & setup. The area is very peaceful & was perfect myself, my partner & our two pups. Sam was lovely & very accomodating especially given the short notice.

1 night at The Beach Arrawarra

toilets and camp kitchen were a bit dingy, apart from that it’s a beautiful location with great surf out the front. would recommend 👍

Weekend Trip to Way Way Getaway

Super relaxed atmosphere at Sams, a little oasis so close to Scott’s but feels like your deep in the bush

Weekend Trip to Yarralen Retreat

Stunning and serene scenes from a fairytale. Super nice and accommodating folk. Charming and complete facilities. Will definately come for a longer stay!

1 night at Yellow Butterfly

Lovely spot amongst the trees . Handy to get some too.

Weekend Trip to Bush by the Sea

Lovely place, plenty of fire wood to scavenge and awesome fire pit. The horses were a nice touch to be around. Plenty of room and felt very safe. Could hear the ocean as we started to go to sleep.

2 nights at Waterfalls & More

What a great place!! Beautiful spaces to explore and enjoy. Camping areas have been cleared and well cared for. The trail to the waterfall is easy to follow and the falls are simply amazing. Well worth a visit. Rod has created a lovely space.

1 night at Yellow Butterfly

Beautiful spot! Lovely little campsite with all the necessities! Thank you for a wonderful stay :)

4 nights at Waterfalls & More

Your own private waterfall!!! Need I say more. We stayed in the fenced area which was so nice to let the doggo run around. The hike to the waterfall is a bit steep but my goodness it is worth it If your looking for, off grid, peace and serenity give this place a go. However if you have someone over 15f I would probably give it a miss. The roads are very treacherous. We have a 18 f caravan and it was truly a mission

Weekend Trip to Yellow Butterfly

Convenient stopover as it’s not too far off the highway (it feels remote, though!). Beautiful nature sounds, showers were lovely and hot, long drop toilet was clean and maintained. Hope to visit again when it’s less rainy, so we can enjoy one of the outdoor tubs :) thanks for a great stay!

24 nights at Yarralen Retreat

Fantastic people Julie and cliff… fully helped me out in the biggest way possible and went out of there way when they didint have 2… awesome place and will miss it very very much… thank u guys..

5 nights at Way Way Getaway

Great spot to base yourself in Scotts Head and very well equipped for various set ups. The hot shower was amazing and we really enjoyed having a fire and making jaffles up by the big fire pit. Rufus is a super friendly pooch and adorably demanding about having his ball thrown!

2 nights at Chaffin Creek Farm

Gina and Rob are so welcoming and the farm has a magic that you feel as soon as you enter the land. The campsite is shady and right by the creek surrounded by beautiful paperbarks and is peaceful and quiet. The hosts have so much knowledge about caring for the land and regenerative agriculture with the cattle that are moved to new paddocks regularly. They are also open to those who can give a help hand with lots of tree planting of rainforest species and weeding of lantana. Chaffin Ck is worth a visit.

4 nights at Kingfisher Kampers, Nana Glen

Perfect spot to stay when there was so much rain. The large shed with table tennis and hot showers. Concrete slab so camper trailer didn’t sink into grass. When the sun did come out a beautiful spot and we enjoyed having a camp fire.

1 night at Yarralen Retreat

Wonderfull and peaceful place! Always enjoy staying here!

3 nights at Way Way Getaway

Loved our stay here! Very chill, great location and had everything we needed as rookie campers. Our dog also had a great time playing with Rufus 🐶

3 nights at Yarralen Retreat

Yarralen retreat was so beautiful and had great facilities. I found the camp area really spacious so it was a really peaceful stay. We were even treated to a property tour on the buggy which the kids loved. I was surprised that use of the salt pool was for a charge for campers and this put us off having a dip but luckily the nearby beaches were beautiful and quick to get to.
