#6 St Albans Reserve (Beside Hotel)
7 RatingsThis reserve is a great spot for camping with pets allowed and free facilities like toilets, BBQ areas, and even a kids play park. It's only two hours away from Sydney and situated next to a river, so you can enjoy dinner and drinks at the nearby pub. The only potential downside is that the pub might be a bit noisy if you're parked too close. But overall, a great spot for an outdoor getaway.

#4 Burralow Creek campground and picnic area
17 RatingsFree, Toilets, BBQ Areas, Camper Trailers, National Parks, Phone Reception, Walking Trails, 4WD Trails, Allows fires, 2 hours from Sydney. Big open area, easy and pleasant walk to the glow worm tunnel. No swimming holes but fire pits available. Steep descent in, chilly in Winter. 10 minute hike to the waterfall at night to see glowworms. Quiet mid week. On Air Force flight path, sounds of chirping birds in the morning. Waze led us to Patterson Range gate (roadworks) but take Burralow Road. Network connection available.
