Camping at Maggie's place offers a serene escape into nature, with lush greenery and abundant wildlife like wallabies and birds. The hosts, Maggie and Bill, are consistently noted for their warm hospitality and attention to guest needs, often going above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. While most reviews are glowing, some visitors have noted issues like the presence of leeches, which may detract from the experience for some campers. Nevertheless, the majority of guests leave with plans to return, appreciating the peaceful, well-maintained grounds and the genuine kindness of the hosts.

A lovely, tranquil spot with wallabies grazing around. Bill and Maggie were very welcoming and the place was well-equipped. All in all, the perfect place for my toddler's first camping experience.

Main Camp - Free Range
I recently stayed at this campground for two nights. While there were some positives, there were also areas that need improvement.
Positives:
Convenient location.
Beautiful natural surroundings.
Areas for Improvement:
Signage: Clearer signs would have been helpful.
Host Behavior: The host’s attitude was disappointing.
Leeches: We encountered numerous leeches, which was unpleasant.
Overall, I hope the campground takes steps to address these issues and create a more positive experience for future visitors.

It was full of leeches, not a good place for family.

We had such a wonderful weekend at Maggie's. The property was beautiful and maintained so nicely. There were lots of amenities, including a bbq, firewood, tables, tank water and a clean toilet.
Maggie helped us settle in and provided us with a fire pit which was great to have at our site. She was very hospitable, checking in to see if we needed anything each day.
The site is in a great spot which is nice and quiet but still close to get to lake Macquarie or the beaches.
There were lots of wallabies around too!
Would highly recommend if you want to unwind, but be close to lots of activities!
