5.0/5
We weren’t sure what to expect with this campsite with but it was unreal!
Secluded, a nice stream to cool off in and an unbelievable sunset. We arrived at 5.30pm and there was only one other group for the night. No reception at the actual site, but if you can get 4G if you walk 50 meters up the road. Access in is via a well maintained gravel road.

5.0/5
Remote & quiet.
Spent NYE here almost alone. Nice flat grassed areas beside a small babbling stream. Derelict historical sheep shed to poke around & a few short walks. 12klms of well maintained gravel on drive in. Loads of birds, insects (no midges).

4.0/5
Nice campground beside a stream, not heaps of space but flat for tents.
A few midges around but nothing crazy. Stunning morning views, and was cool to see the old Quailburn Woolshed. Was a great A2O stop, definitely recommend!

4.5/5
Gorgeous location, good flat spots next to the stream.
We were the only ones here, but not surprising as the last 11km down the road is a gravel road and the last 2-3km is almost more like offroad. We managed quite easily though with our large motorhome, but did so slow but sure.
Can definitely recommend if you want a quiet and beautiful spot away from the highway.
Would have been 10/10 if better access road.
