It was a peaceful location not too far out of town. We enjoyed our stay with no issues.

We had a lovely stay at this campground. The space is very pleasant and generously sized, with plenty of room to relax and enjoy the surroundings. We were warmly welcomed by Beth, who was incredibly kind and helpful from the moment we arrived. Highly recommend!

Lovely Beth popped over and welcomed us and gave us a quick run down and places to see and go.
The Innes Nat park is a must.
Camp site, plenty of room over the Easter long weekend. we parked the van along the fence line to shelter from the wind and it was great.
5 minute walk to the beach was a bonus, unfortunately the wind was blowing the wrong way and it was full of seaweed.

I regret staying at Andrew and Beth's Hipcamp at Marion Bay. While Beth was friendly and polite, Andrew’s behaviour was shocking and anything but hospitable.
After four nights of camping, on the morning of our departure, I faced an emergency. Our camper toilet was completely full, and I urgently needed to go. I mustered the courage to politely ask if I could use their toilet, explaining the situation was an emergency and knowing I wouldn’t make it to town in time.
Andrew’s response was rude and dismissive. He stated that campers needed to be self-contained and that my situation wasn’t his problem. He also mentioned they had visitors and couldn’t possibly allow me to use their bathroom. I fully understand the self-contained policy, and we have been completely self contained for the four days there, but emergencies happen, and the way he handled the situation—cold, judgmental, and downright hostile—was appalling.
After I walked away, Andrew came over to the shed opposite our site and glared at us in a way that felt intimidating, creepy and unwelcoming. It seemed like he was trying to ensure I wouldn’t go on the campsite, adding to the discomfort of an already humiliating experience. I won't return due to being treated this way.
