The campsite is situated on the beach, sheltered by the sheoaks in the back dunes. At the rear of the campsite lies a freshwater lagoon, locally known as the keyholes. Currently, there are four sites available to be booked. There is a camp kitchen with a two gas burner, all pots and pans, plates and cutlery with table and chairs to sit at. There is also a big esky there to use for either your food or drinks. Fresh water is provided in twenty litre drums. The bush shower works on the keg being heated up just like a kettle. Once it is hot then a nice warm shower is to be had to wash off all the salt from the ocean. There is also two compost toilets for your convenience. A unique feature includes the opportunity for surfing, fishing, and swimming in your private lagoon. A short drive will take you to Point Lookout. 10 minutes and you are at the pub mixing with the locals. Access is via the beach only and tides are a consideration. Please check "Point Lookout tides" on Willy Weather. I don't normally travel on the beach if the tide is over 1.5 metres. A 4 wheel drive vehicle is required. Camper trailers can be brought in as they are light. Caravans are not permitted due to the tight turning circles.

Great campsite hidden from the wind . Great little outdoor shower and loo. Good entertaining area to cook up and fillet fish . Beach fishing was average due to wind but pick the right time would be great little spot . Clean and tidy camp

We found the campsite to be a little unkempt - the toilets were full and were off putting, the kitchen sink water didn’t work so difficult to wash up there. It was a lovely to have a hot shower which only occurs after a hot day heats the water. It was a lovely walk though to the beach and the sound of the waves at night.

This place is a great spot on North Stradbroke Island. Although tide dependant, close to Point Lookout, close to the Causeway 4WD access. Great facilities for a bush camp, with camp kitchen, shower and composting toilets. Camper trailer friendly, dog friendly. I have stayed/camped everywhere possible on this island, this is my pick. Highly recommend.

I like this camping spot, I brought a camping trailer in easy enough. Seemed to be out of the wind behind the sand dunes too. Had an undercover seating and kitchen area which would be handy if it rains. The bush toilets and shower were fine for us too. The only thing is you can't really get in or out if the tides over 1.5m just keep an eye on it and it'll be fine. John was a good host, I'd come back.
