Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
NSW Ski Gardens offers a peaceful and scenic spot for camping, right on the Hawkesbury River. Many campers appreciate the friendly hosts, clean facilities, and the convenience of the on-site kiosk. However, some reviews mention issues with noise from neighboring campers, particularly late at night. Overall, it's a well-maintained site that's perfect for a relaxing getaway, with the added bonus of riverfront views.

My dogs & I had a wonderful week at the Ski Gardens. Matt & Nicole are very conscientious, friendly & accomodating stewards of the park. We had a perfect getaway from the rat race to spend some much needed time relaxing. Thank you so much! James, Jackie Boy & Gidley :)

Tent camped at K Secret beach 1 - Unpowered, Oct 2026.
Recommends
Always enjoy stay here. Clean, and not crowded. The price of Firewood has gone up fair bit, and have to pay for the fire pit now. Not sure when this changed but I understand this as business perspective. The only negative thiG is the rubbish is only at one end of the property which is bit too far. But overall I always enjoy this place and they are very friendly.
