We loved our stay at Parkers Place! Such beautifully maintained, showcase gardens! Kick the shoes off and walk barefoot over the lovely, grassed areas. Plenty of room to throw the frisbee for the dogs. plenty of shade and breezes to escape the heat and humidity.

Absolutely loved camping at Parker's Place! Gorgeous camp set up, comfortable with an undercover area with BBQ and solar lighting. Green grassy area and by the creek. Plenty of wildlife activity to observe and also very peaceful. Will be back😊

Fantastic location

About as good a site as could be imagined. Extremely quiet (aside from the birds and the gurgling water) very private, everything you need except mains power. Great host. Highly recommended.

I loved camping here. Owners were amazing and wished we could of stayed longer. We had the place to ourselves and the pick of the spots. We utilised the seating area for meals.
