    Park around back for quiet night in a secluded spot.

    If you park out front you'll be women from 6 am by coal trucks. Showers still cold as coin machine broken. Toilets basic but clean. None of this a problem is you are self-contained. Washing and drying machines use $2 coin.

    We turned up on New Year’s Eve and found this place.

    There are power parks available behind the building but we didn’t need power so parked on the lawn at the front. You can pay via online banking and tents are allowed. There are very run down showers and toilets but in the town center there are brand new, free, clean toilets and showers. Such a cool spot nestled amongst the trees. The two locals pubs were great too!

    We stopped by on our way up the coast as the site was only $5pp for unpowered which also had clean toilets.

    We went to the local pub and it was brilliant, very nice locals. Downside was the showers which we paid extra for were cold and the water was just dribbling out. there was very limited parking space around the back of the community centre. I wouldn’t recommend larger campers as they wouldn’t get turned.

    Don't get confused, it's in behind the Blackball community centre.

    Nice hot showers for a fee and a power point. Couple of sandflies.

    In the garden of a creepy house at first view, but nice spot.

    Good facilities.

    Looks a little bit scary at first view (think it dempeded on the cloudy weather and the big Villa).

    But it was one of our best campsites with hot showers which were also clean! Could highly recommend it! :)

    Didn't like this camp site one bit - left as early as I could, did not feel safe, music blasting from neighbouring house till 1am and about 1130pm three drunk lads arrived.

    I have been in better camp sites.
