Many sites are on all weather turf, while others stretch along the banks of the stream with plenty of shade during the heat of summer. Campers will love the two outdoor kitchen/BBQ pavilions, both with innovative themes. Mosaic paths lead to superb ablutions, which include a spa bathroom and sauna (for hire), and disability/family facilities are available. Gather in the comfort of the TV lounges, or in the sunroom/dining bay. The laundry facilities are excellent, there is plentiful internet access, and coffee and a supermarket are on your doorstep. Your hosts are Tonnie and Erna Spijkerbosch. Tent sites from $30 for one adult and power sites from $37 for one adult or $57 for two.
