Very nice big open property - first in first served style for the good spots. The drive in to the property was unexpected, through a bit of a windy gravel road but once arrived it was amazing. Staff were friendly and helpful Swimming locations were very relaxing Lots of wildlife around

Lovely Camp Tucked out of the way.
Very Nice place to stay, Was a skinny dirt road to access the property but towing the 20ft caravan through there we didn't encounter any problems. It was busy but we managed to find a nice quiet spot. It was a nice walk down to the river and was very pleasant water with a strong flow with plenty of places to swim out of the current. There is a camp shop which looked to have lots of everything incase you forgot something. As it's very remote I'd highly recommend ensuring you have enough supplies for the entire time though. There was plenty of firewood for purchase. There was water onsite that we used for showering and washing up. We didn't run out of drinking water. Water was very clear and looks perfectly fine to drink.

Camping with animals!
We loved this camp-site! Perfect for long stay, there are showers and toilets in good and clean conditions. Camp-fire was allowed at our stay time. Very sweet and nice host. There is a beautiful river near there, curious animals come from time to time. So good and relaxing place.

Nice site, be careful on the road!
The site was great. Unfortunately didn't get chance to go for a swim but it's nice you can go in the river from the site. Womens facilities in particular were lovely and very clean. Lots of nice views on the drive up but be aware the road is quite rough, tight and steep in places - we didn't realise and we're in a big normal van so struggled in some places but still manageable. Overall lovely though and would recommend!

Loved camping at Coolendel. Starry skies, mountain surrounds and easy access to water activities. Facilities are basic but well maintained. The place could do better with power, more amenities and working BBQs.
