The view is nice, but the site is rather expensive and you have to pay extra for hot showers.
The sites are all very close to each other. No privacy. The place is also open for public parking. Facilities are not very clean and people do not seem to care very much. There is this guy from the campsite cruising around on his quad across occupied spots without actually doing anything useful. We placed our tent here and headed of to the peninsula for a day trip. When we came back someone obviously hit our tent and broke it. We asked around but nobody knew anything about it. My guess would be the guy with his quad . If you are not here for fishing I would avoid staying here.
Wow
You came back and your tent had ripped so you blamed everyone else but yourselves, you even tried blaming me in the shop that it was my fault that I had not kept an eye on your tent. The gentleman driving around on the quad is the owner, he works 18 hours a day 7 days a week. (while you do nothing). The camp ground is spotless and has a great atmosphere with great people - the toilets you used would have been the public toilets and not the camp toilets / showers. Assumptions that people do not care very much is not nice but this review of yours is not nice which shows your character. Peak period $25 per person is below average for this time of the year. Don't come back we only have nice people staying here.
Hi its Des here the guy with the quad,yep I ride my quad around the camp picking up rubbish tiding up the place, escorting people to their sites and preparing them for the next occupants. I work very hard at trying to keep my part of this country clean, I find it offensive that you even suggest that it was me. Basically you headed out for the day the wind blew and your small tent ripped, you questioned me and stated that you had used this tent through your stay and why would it rip and someone must have done it, I found your comments at the time odd and your attitude rather extreme, I usually don't respond to reviews but this required a response from me personally, I'm sorry but you are odd!!!
