Just ok
Potoroo Palace Wildlife Sanctuary
This site is on the edge of a non profit animal sanctuary and we were more than happy to support their good cause. Staff on site were really nice and helpful. However the site was just average for $70+ a night, and the vicinity of the road did not help in terms of noise levels. One big plus was to be just next to the emus area. They're curious animals so they often came to check on us.

Serene camping adventure
Potoroo Palace Wildlife Sanctuary
Lovely serene camping spot. Very quiet and nice to have the area to yourselves (and the animals)! Access to toilet and shower was locked on second night which was a bit of a bummer. Overall, great little adventure. Thanks heaps.
