1 night at Cudgella on Bundidgerry Creek
We had an afternoon and overnight at an easily accessible, private, single campsite on the Bundidgery Creek. The list of facilities is impressive and although a little rustic, they are comfortable and functional. We did not use the pizza oven or gas 3 burner BBQ that were part of the camp kitchen. The fire pit was large and well built, perfect for our cooking. A hot shower and flushing toilet were uncommon facilities at a river campsite with a sandy beach.

Wonderful quiet and private camp-site beside the ample flowing creek. Facilities of BBQ, flush toilet and shower once you have heated water using gas supplied are all fantastic. I feel privileged to have experienced this special place. On AJ's suggestion had lovely Sat even pizza at Grong Grong hotel. I look forward to returning.

Self-contained camping: Hyde Park: We have a beautiful open area to camp along the Murrumbidgee River, which is fantastic for a group of self-contained campers. Plenty of room, open country and riverside fun. One booking at a time, so you have this entire area to yourselves. All campers here must be self-contained with their own camp toilet, power and drinking water. Mossy's Beach : A more secluded spot featuring a beautiful sandbar which is fantastic for a group of self-contained campers. One booking at a time, so you have this entire area to yourselves. All campers here must be self-contained with their own camp toilet, power and drinking water. All options are very private from one another, so you are assured your own space.

We are 3.5km from the Narrandera town centre, so all amenities are close by. Suitable for all types of vans, RVs, camper trailers, although you must be self contained.
