Lovely bit of property and close to Braidwood. Worth exploring around the campsites. The river was nice but swollen after the rain, I'd like to come back and try and fish again. Phil was very helpful too

I only stayed the one night, even though I booked and paid for two. I had the impression the campsite was fairly secluded but it was in full view of another camper and the campsite was unfortunately, not great. The river was 2-3 hundred metres from my campsite, which is fine, but there was very little access. Nowhere to sit or setup if you had say an inflatable SUP and definitely too hard if you had a young child. Lastly, I received a message from the host one day prior to my booking, that the river was flooded and one access into campsite was cut-off due to rain. I replied asking, that if it was too wet/flooded, should I postpone for another week. Unfortunately no reply, so I left for my weekend camping not knowing what condition the campsite would be in. After my first night I messaged my host letting him know he can rebook the campsite as I wasn't staying the second night, but again, no reply. In my opinion, the campsite along with the poor communication from the host made it not worth the thirty odd dollars per night that I paid 😞

A peaceful bush retreat, great to relax and reset.

The host Phil is friendly, gave clear directions on how to get to our site and dropped by briefly to make sure everything was okay. We stayed at the Gumnut site, which is the highest and more secluded of the sites we saw on the property. It has quite a nice view, and plenty of room to move/set up, but does get more sun than the other sites, so might be a little hot through the day in Summer. In April, it was perfect. It’s a few hundred meters walk to the river, but not a hard walk. Dogs were welcome and nearly every campsite had them. Saw kangaroos and kookaburras each day, which kept the 4yo super entertained. Fire pit is provided and Phil will drop off wood on request.

Scribble Gum camp was just beautiful.
Surrounded by lovely bushland, plenty of room and a great little river to take a cool dip. Lots of lovely birds around. We loved it.
Phil made sure we were settled and had some tips for adventures.
