We absolutely loved camping at this beautiful spot .The sound of the running water of the river , the wildlife and the scenery made this the perfect weekend getaway. Being the only campers it was so peaceful. Easy to find as well . We will definitely be back to swim in the river when it warms up a bit . Thank you Thomas for letting us stay . It’s a 10/10 from us 😊

A most gorgeous place. The river is beautiful, one of our group saw a Platypus. We had a kangaroo drop by to inspect the camp & the long grass rippled with the breeze. There were wildflowers all around. Birdlife is abundant, we had a colony of cockatoos, many ducks, and daily visits by an eagle, way above us.
As it used to be a quarry there are many smooth rocks around, so beware if you are staking your tent, there may be an issue here & there as you drive them into the ground!
This place was peaceful, there was plenty of room, but it is only a few kilometres from two towns. There is plenty to do & see in the area.

The site is extremely beautiful and very spacious, it also has very rocky and uneven ground making it a little difficult choosing a tent space or camper space.
The water is quite shallow on the camp side so it wasn’t suitable for fishing but awesome if you wanted to paddle around.

This is the second time we have been to this spot and set up in slightly different spots. Both were a great time.
There are a few spots along the river to set up so you have a nice backdrop for your sleep.
The host was a great help this trip. This one is staying on my list and should be on yours

The most amazing spot, peaceful and scenic, so much to explore and do. If you want to stop in Jugiong for lunch on the way in or if you want to do a quick trip during the day, or even just stay and get away from the world for a bit, this is your place. Thanks guys for an amazing weekend.

Amazing spot, very peaceful, clean and scenic. There’s so many options for your site and it’s close to Jugiong for lunch and central to get up into Kosciusko on day trips. Highly recommended!

A nice private site with easy access to the river. In Thomas's absence, the sheep will guide you to your site.
