Lovely grassy spot at the waters edge. We chose a windy evening but woke up to calm bliss. Big area with a limit on camp spots means there’s always some space.

Perfect…
Not sure where to start… the views, the uncrowded location, the peace and quiet, David’s hospitality? All tip top. Would book again and will recommend to all my like minded mates. The shower up by the man cave was all time though… and the location a perfect base for exploring coast and country. Cheers for opening your property David, for people like me who are city bound it is great to know these places exist to be enjoyed.

Hard to leave
This was a great spot and made all the more peaceful due to the limited number of campers allowed. The breeze coming off the water made the stay so much more pleasant in 35-37 degree days. Our van was parked only a couple of metres from the waters edge and swimming was enjoyable thanks to the sandy bottom. David and Annette were fantastic, welcoming hosts. We will be back

This is a fantastic spot right on the waters edge. The sandy area to the Northern end is shallow and perfect to cool off. Our host David was very friendly
