Coolendel Camp is a beautiful nature reserve located on the Shoalhaven River three hours south of Sydney. The 2.5 kms of stunning riverfront attracts an extraordinary abundance of Australian wildlife. The comforts of modern facilities, the convenience of the Coolendel Store and the help of our friendly Coolendel crew, provide Coolendel’s visitors with a truly unique ‘back to nature’ camping and glamping experience.
Coolendel campground offers a beautifully expansive area with abundant wildlife and scenic views along the Shoalhaven River. Campers appreciate the friendly staff and well-kept amenities, which include clean showers and toilets. The site is accessible by a narrow, winding road, which some find challenging but manageable. Visitors enjoy the relaxing atmosphere, opportunities for swimming, and the chance to connect with fellow campers.
Wonderful property with so much space, kayaks available for rent. Camping options from riverfront camping to shaded spaces, also glamping available as well. Great facilities with outdoor/indoor showers, clean toilets, etc. Really great place to spend a few days with your friends or family.
The campground was super busy for Aus Day long weekend and we still managed to snag a great spot. The river is stunning and an extremely relaxing for swimming. Areas for fire were amazing and amenities very well kept. Easily accessible without four wheel drive although the road is dusty and watch out for potholes. We were greeted by the wildlife which included amazing peacocks and a resident wombat. Everyone there very respectful of curfew and were able to make friends with other campers. Staff were also super helpful and explained everything without any hassle. What a great place to unwind and switch off.
Very nice big open property - first in first served style for the good spots.
The drive in to the property was unexpected, through a bit of a windy gravel road but once arrived it was amazing.
