Thanks mate

Karen and her lovely block are wonderful and it's great that she limits occupation to a few sites thereby maintaining what should be important to private camping.

Beautiful riverside camping

With kids

Beautiful quiet spot next to the Esk River. Plenty of space, fire pots and even wood. Excellent swimming hole next to some small rapids, great for kids to explore. Karen was super friendly and accommodating. Awesome spot for a quiet few days or to explore the region, including Mathinna Falls and the Evercreech forest. Top spot
