Pretty great camping area, would recommend driving up with a 4wd but managed to get up with a small hatchback.

Great spot, lots of campsites in several spots, Casuarina camp ground is our favourite, very sheltered from wind but not a lot of sun gets through the trees. Long drop toilets were cleaned every day by the forestry and the bins emptied. You can have a camp fire if there's no fire ban. About 10 km of good dirt road, fine for 2wd and caravans. Take your own water as there is a rainwater tank next to the toilets for washing you hands but gets emptied by unprepared campers filling jerry cans.

Question:

Has anyone been recently? Sketchy info about access and even if it is open

Answer:

Haven been recently. But having been there many times over the years, the main roads are regularly maintained and 2wd access is good unless there has been large amounts of rain. We usually access via Freemans Waterhole. by Ant B.
