Curlew Camp - Birds & Fishing
Nice spot on the lake, plenty of room to setup. We had a very enjoyable time at the property and in the general area. Friendly hosts and good to see lots of birds in the area.

We had a beautiful camp at Curlew Camp. It was very peaceful and a beautiful sunset. And we were very lucky to see a Rakali swim close by to the shore. 👍 hoping to return sometime in the future with the grandchild.

Another great stay at Curlew. Beautiful spot with plenty of space and use of kayaks, shelter, tables and water tank. New improvements such as compost toilet will make an amazing hipcamp even better. Perfect for dogs. Great hosts and generous wood amount if ordered. Highly recommend

This was our 2nd attempt at staying here, wet weather got in the way last year ! This was everything we thought and hoped it to be Stunning scenery, lots of space , great set up with table, fire pit etc. 2 caravans. 2 dogs, 2 nights. Left very reluctantly. Definitely going back.
Thanks Rebecca for the amazing communication & for sharing your bit of paradise !

It's a beautiful spot on the lake, with its own beach and little woods full of birds. The camping setup was basic but spot on, with shelter, fireplace, water, wood delivered as an option extra, and gorgeous views. Its also much more private than the free camps - a great option for a stopover or a holiday base in its own right.

We are fairly experienced hip campers, and Curlew Waters is totally on the top shelf. From excellent directions, clear signage, to a mountain of firewood waiting for us, we just loved it. A great break from a busy week, we just itched to get the camera out and soak in the tranquility. Thank you so much for having us, loved this beautiful place.

We loved our stay at Curlew Hip Camp it was so relaxing and the bird life was exceptional.One of the best things that attracted us was the huge undercover area,having some fresh water from a tank and firewood supplied for a fire on arrival was fantastic.

The owner was very kind and friendly to us and very responsive during communications. Real delight to deal with. They had left a nice booklet for us to browse through and get briefed on the town and the nature around the campsite.
The site is rough enough to make it fun and all about the wilderness but has some comforts like a rainwater tank, and a very nice sturdy shelter.
Lastly for the nature itself - nothing less than amazing. When we were there, there were a lot of beached fish from the cold waters I guess. The birds were feasting and we had a delightful spot right in the middle of it all. Our dog loves guarding the territory and playing around with the dead fish.
The kayaks are awesome too, add a bit of something to do whilst we were there.
Very good experience. More than what we expected, very reasonable costs too. Couldn't ask for better.

Great place to stay close to Lake Cargelligo but private and serene. Good fishing and abundant bird life with amazing night skies. Level site close to the water, heaps of room, easy access and the shelter was a bonus. Highly recommended.

Amazing exclusive, dog friendly campsite with great lake access, fishing from shore, incredible views, birdlife aplenty and the friendliest town I have ever encountered just down the road.

My dog and I loved it so much we extended for a week. The birding is fabulous, the lake an ever changing panorama and Lake Cargelligo town is minutes away with friendly helpful locals and all the necessities. Thanks Rebecca!

WOW! A highlight of our trip. A beautiful, large, flat grassy site next to the beautiful Curlew Waters. The permanent shelter was great for shading us from the afternoon sun. The bins and water tank are an awesome addition to making your stay more comfortable. We loved using the free kayaks to kayak out on the Curlew Waters and enjoying an afternoon swim with our dogs - the entrance being easy and water temperature beautiful. Close to town for essentials. Perfect for self contained campers looking for relaxation or bird watching!

A little oasis! Such a great place to camp. We loved our time at Curlew Camp. The kids were kept busy kayaking, fishing and swimming. We will definitely be back.

Second time camping at Curlew. Having the skillion is a bonus from either the rain or heat. Water from the lake is great for showering and tank water, as a backup, if necessary.
We're not many skiers or fisher folk this year, all are friendly and give you a wave on their way past.
Have booked again for 2026 as it doesn't get much better than this.

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Curlew Camp. While close to the road, it only seems to be locals going past. Abundant birdlife and a beautiful place for a kayak.
Only downside - the fire restrictions prevented us having a camp fire.
Host Rebecca was lovely. 🙂

We had a fantastic stay for 3 nights. Beautiful views and really enjoyed the peace and solitude and being able to relax, fish, boating and kayaking and watching the bird life.
Really appreciated the generous firewood supply, water from tank and use of shelter and kayaks. Close to amenities of Lake Cargelligo if needed. Plenty of room to set up for a few people or a group with flat grassed areas easily accessible. Our only regret was that we did not book for longer as we all did not want to leave. Great communication with host and thank you for sharing your beautiful piece of paradise. We would definitely like to return.

Excellent campsite, great birds, didnt realise it was adjacent to a boat ramp but the limited number of users did not disturb us.
Only dissapointment was dogs barking all night on the first night, but all quiet on the second night.

A great family getaway if your prepared to be self sufficient and love being in nature. We had a great weekend camping, kayaking and fishing. The communication of the hosts was excellent and we appreciated the information provided ahead of our stay to give us an idea of what to expect.
