A special treat for travellers and families, this beautiful campsite amongst the trees and across the road from the lake was a pleasure to visit. With only 15 campsites available, within a fairly roomy grassed area, you may need to book ahead to avoid disappointment. Each site comes with its very own toilet/shower unit, a picnic table, and tap. The well-kept grounds are level and have many attractive shelter trees scattered throughout. A little laundry building has automatic washer, dryer, ironing facilities and vacuum cleaner, and beside the original farm barn is a cosy kitchen with room to relax away from the working area. There are plenty of appliances, including a microwave and a BBQ is also available. Don\'t sit down on the chairs out the front of the kitchen though, you may never leave as the view is to die for. All the facilities are beautifully maintained, while across the road is a boat ramp for campers use and plenty of shore fishing. The camp closes at the end of April and opens again mid-September, and your friendly hosts are Jamie and Pam. All sites are from $40 for two, $15 each extra, children 12 and under $7.50 and under 5 years $5, while infants are free.

pushbikes available to use. It sounds like they have a lot of fun at this camp,

with the locals. A short stroll down the road is a small pub, no doubt a
welcome sight on a hot day. Internet is available and your hosts are Stu and
Angie. Tent sites are $20 per adult, $30 for two adults, $13 for an extra adult
and $7 for children. Power sites are $23 per adult, $32 for two adults, $15 for

grounds are level, with the 24 gravelled power sites, unfortunately most of these are taken up by permanent residents so not many spaces available. All the facilities are well positioned, clean and modern, the kitchen has a stove and
microwave with a trellised and covered BBQ area for inside/outside eating. The
ablution block has disability suites for both sexes, and the laundry is equipped
with automatic machines. With a choice of ocean beach swimming, or a
