This property is in Northangera with the Mongarlowe River running along the boundary. It's covered in trees and provides a pristine environment amongst the "Scribbly Gums". It has flat areas with plenty of free timber for the designated fire pits. I have tried to create a haven for wildlife including Kangaroos, wombats, echidnas and platypus. I cherish the cleanliness of the river and surrounds and wish to be able to share this special environment with others who care to preserve all it offers. You can explore the property along the tracks, paddle, swim or fish in the river, enjoy the fauna, wildlife and birdlife. Located not far from Braidwood, a town steeped in history, with good shopping, coffee shops and great food. Sloping to flat land amongst the Scribbly Gum trees offering a number of sites and walks through the property. It provides both sun and shade. Access is good for vans of any size along a track through the bushland. Lovely swimming spots in the Mongalowe River, beautiful clear water, and several lovely bushwalks around the property. There is only Telstra reception available in this area. We offer 7 different sites and the maximum stay is 7 nights.

Beautiful little shack in a beautiful location on the riverside. We really enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the evening fire with a good wood supply provided by Phil, very considerate. Highly recommend it if you like a cosy cottage with basic provisions.

Site 4 is a good sized campsite. We had our caravan annexe and car on it with lots of leftover room. It's a short walk to a beautiful river, where it's nice for a swim on a hot day. The camp lives up to its name as there are many beautiful squiggly gum trees. Our host Phil was available when we arrived if we needed anything. The fact that there isn't any internet server available made it so much better to relax and unwind for the duration of our stay. I highly recommend Squiggly Gum Camp for a peaceful getaway.

Fresh water swimming and platypus
We had a peaceful time swimming in the fresh water and spoting platypus from the deck of the shack. A beautiful retreat, thanks Phil.

Tent camped for 2 nights at site 4. Absolutely perfect. Very private and quiet. The river was amazing and the shortest of walks from site 4. Super convenient being close to Braidwood. Would definitely recommend.
