Black wattle
We loved staying at Black Wattle! The views and camp site were amazing! It was a little hot, but the ability to cool off in the dam with some lovely native visitors was fantastic!

Picnic Ground
This was the best stay I’ve ever had. The property is secluded and private - despite having other campers on site we didn’t see anyone because the place is so huge. We were greeted by the host and his kelpie who showed us to our site. There is no reception and you have to be self sustaining at the picnic grounds, which was perfect for us. We took pool floaties and had a float in the dam which was a delight. 100000% would stay again.

We loved the location at Black Wattle, it was private and felt completely isolated which is exactly what we were looking for. The toilet and water on site were handy! The view from our campsite and the walking tracks along the property was breathtaking.
We stayed in the height of summer, so there wasn’t much water about in the creeks or dams.
The host was friendly and always up for a chat when we came across each other.
It’s about 20 minutes to the closest town by car where you can get a nice pub lunch and some ice to top up the drinks esky, and it’s about an hour into Coonabarabran which is a larger town that has some shops and fuel.
The warrumbungle national park is along the scenic route to Coonabarabran and is worth the trip to stop in and check out the lookouts and trails.
We saw lots of birdlife, kangaroos, wallabies, wild goats and the residents cows and calves.
We highly recommend staying here and would love to come back one day.

Monkey Rock Camp
Very helpful hosts. Great rock formations but unfortunately no water in creek which would have been good to know. Very quiet.
