Great camp site. Despite bad weather and potential flooding, Ian gave us options for spots to stay dry. Site was easily accessible, 2wd cars could easily make it. Will definitely camp here again if passing through

We were just passing through and arrived in the afternoon and stayed one night. We loved this spot. The outdoor shower had hot water and was a nice touch and our pup Zeus enjoyed swimming in the pond. Ian and Tracey were very welcoming and came down to say hello. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely, quiet campsite with fire pits, toilet and shower. Great place for stargazing at night and wake up with sounds of animals.
