One of the larger campgrounds I’ve been to. Has drop toilets and fire pits. Huge grass area to kick the footy. Nice little creek with a path alongside. Not much wood around. No bins. Gets busy in peak periods. 2WD/low car accessible. Dogs welcome

Lovely spot. Wouldn't recommend on a long weekend. Drop toilets (2), fire pits. Great for dogs. Lovely surroundings to explore
