James and Jen Eldorado., New South Wales

There are quite a few lovely campsites to choose from. The best is to arrive and have a look around to see what suits you. If these campsites are booked up, look up the Gold Nugget Creek Camp, it's on the same property and just as nice.

Its a short walk down to the creek where we have lots of large freshwater crayfish, that can often be seen foraging in the creek at night, please don't eat them, they are spiny crayfish and protected. 

You can spot foraging eels in the creek at night with a flash light. You'll see echidnas digging and wallabies hopping around. Resident kookaburras will wake you up in the morning with their chorus of laughter.

This campsite is nice and private, feels remote but is only ten minutes from Lismore. Heritage Park in Lismore nearby has a small water splash park/play area for kids on hot days.  Fires are permitted out of fire season. Nice walk down the rest of Yeager Rd a few km, very unspoilt and peaceful valley, the road winds alongside the creek.

Bungabee State Forest for 4x4 and mountain biking or take a 50 minute trip to Ballina for beach and river.

We have a bucket shower system which is quite fun and plenty of water to wash with.  If you want to drink the water we recommend that you boil it. A composting toilet is a short walk away.
