This property is in Northangera with the Mongarlowe River running along the boundary. It's covered in trees and provides a pristine environment amongst the "Scribbly Gums". It has flat areas with plenty of free timber for the designated fire pits. I have tried to create a haven for wildlife including Kangaroos, wombats, echidnas and platypus. I cherish the cleanliness of the river and surrounds and wish to be able to share this special environment with others who care to preserve all it offers. You can explore the property along the tracks, paddle, swim or fish in the river, enjoy the fauna, wildlife and birdlife. Located not far from Braidwood, a town steeped in history, with good shopping, coffee shops and great food. Sloping to flat land amongst the Scribbly Gum trees offering a number of sites and walks through the property. It provides both sun and shade. Access is good for vans of any size along a track through the bushland. Lovely swimming spots in the Mongalowe River, beautiful clear water, and several lovely bushwalks around the property. We offer four sites and the maximum stay is 7 nights.

Nice bush camping spot with a friendly host. The river was a bit further than I expected it to be but it was still a very relaxing camp.

Such a peaceful spot, secluded and private. We had plenty of firewood, and enjoyed sitting around the campfire at night looking at all the stars. Just a short walk down to the river for a cold dip.

Site 4
We enjoyed camping at Phils place! Lots of wildlife running around and a short walk to the creek (no fish at our section unfortunately). Only thing that we wish had been made clear before booking was how close the camp sites are to eachother. Within sight of the next campsite, which isn't an issue but we were looking for a more isolated spot. Other than that would definitely return!

The Pumpkin Patch
Pumpkin Patch was fantastic!
Visited Pumpkin Patch with 2 adults, 2 kids (7, 10) & 1 dog. Directions were easy to follow to the campsite. Initial thoughts: Wow! We were impressed; neat and spacious. Hosts Phil and Jan came and met us and gave us the run-down. They were super friendly and offered up some activities to do around the area. Our kids loved the fire-pit and hammock. We set up a swag for them and they were super safe. The site was big enough for our Lab to wander around in and she had the time of her life. I would strongly recommend this site for a great getaway.
