Extremely poor customer relations.
Someone in the office needs to do a course in respectful customer service. Very disappointing experience trying to book - poor communicator - very unhelpful and rude. Will tell others

Nicely positioned next to estuary and a short drive to village and on to the heads.
Water is tidal but great for the kids to splash about and swim at high tide. Good clean facilities. Dog friendly. Recommend this place to families and people with pets. Would def return - but would request a waterfront site as although site we had was generous in size, the outlook was a broken trampoline and toilet block.

Really nice place.
Heaps of space and a lot to do for kids and adults, they have a playground and the t.v room includes a pool table, table tennis, darts and air hockey. The reciptionist was really nice and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Travelled solo with no plans and not too sure where to go as I had my dog with me.
Ended up finding this gem, checked in no problem. The lady at the counter was lovely and gave me a few ideas of what to do around the town. Get 1GB wifi and 2 tokens for hot shower 6mins each which was plenty time for me. Got to pick my spot on the unpowered site along the estuary. Definitely worth the money in my opinion.

Unless you have kids, I recommend steering clear of this park, crowded with lots of families and kids running and screaming everywhere.
When we arrived they also tried to put us in a tiny triangle of grass between a cabin and the main road which wasn’t even a real tent site, they then moved us to a square of grass behind a cabin, although there were at least three prime tent spaces by the river that were clearly open. We asked if we could move to one of those spaces but they said they were booked (even though it was late evening), no one came that night and spaces were still open in the morning - very disappointing. Not really worth the $40. Points given for nice river view and decent water pressure in the shower.

Travelling in a motorhome, my husband and I checked in on a Saturday night of a long weekend.
So in essence we were lucky to get a powered site, of which we got the last one! We were in the boat parking space at the back of the camp. The camp is on the side of a river with mainly swamp lands around. When the tide is in you can access the river, where we saw a number putting in their jet skis. We didn’t use the main bathroom blocks as there was a smaller one situated near us at the back of the park; it was fairly new and clean. In summary a nice little park, very open however.

What a campsite!
Why doesn't it have more reviews!!! Amazing price for what you get, everywhere is clean and tidy. No problems with cooking facilities, toilets or accommodation. The staff are lovely and friendly. Free Wifi that works as if you are in a library. I urge anyone, if you're in the area to come and stay, check out the area and this campsite. You won't be disappointed.

My sister and me had a really late check in but that wasn't a problem. The facilities look tidy and clean. You have free WiFi access. We slept on a non-powered campsite for $18 each. That was it definitely worth. For $0.50 you can enjoy a tidy and hot shower for 6minutes. And wake up next to the river. Give them a try it's definitely worth it. Cheers.
