Really nice spot by the river. Toilets are available. If you don’t want to cross the river in your car, you can stay at the day area. Walking trail is 7.5km, allow 2 hours.

Came here because I was caught in a thunderstorm on the highway and Google said it was the nearest campsite. Lol. The road crosses a river, but luckily there are a few spaces on the south side of the river and accessible for 2WD. Based on old Deptford town there's a few things to see here only a short walk away. Great overnight spot to break up the journey.

Well maintained campsite close to Nicholson River. Drop toilet, two fire pits, large open camp spots with gum trees which provide some shade. Easy walking access to the Nicholson River, nice for bathing/fishing. Walking/mountain biking tracks, 4WD also. Lovely peaceful spot.
