Cool place to check out, wazza has run the place for over 30 years. Very small camping area, so get in early. You definitely get to know your neighbours.. Cold showers, toilets didn’t really flush to well. And no lighting in them. $25 for a night for two people

Nice spot. Can have hot water but wazza doesn’t want to do the fire. He’s a little rough but a laugh. Shower is open air n sides natural water pool is lovely we met some great people there had a fantastic night even though we had a massive storm.
