Great location, super busy during school holidays. Nice people and accessible by pretty much any car. No BBQ, good fire pits and access to toilets.

Beautiful campsite nestled within the forest. Fire pits and long drop toilets available. There’s also beautiful walks and it’s dog friendly. Highly recommend, accessible by any sort of car, however caravans can’t access the grassed area as you park you car then set up camp.

Pretty campsite, easy to access via 2wd if you’re worried. It’s a bit small so best to go early. There’s a nice walk also

Spent 5 night here late December 2020. Nice facilities. Good spot to base yourself for day trips. Favourite places we visited from here were Ada Tree and Britannia Falls. Was no water on-site. 2 drop toilets. Fire pits and picnic tables.

Nice open area amongst big gums and ferns. A long walk cuts through this campsite. Multiple fire pits available. Popular with younger folk (<25 yo) on my visit.
