Great spot. Nice and quiet. Not the flattest but there are heaps of areas to park on and level your caravan up. Getting through the gate was a mission with my truck and 22ft van. You do have a u turn area but that was too tight for us. We had to do a 3point turn to get in with van. In and out with truck only is easy as. But other than that, it was amazing! I would stay again and recommend to others

Tent

Jolly Nose Camp is an absolute gem, offering an exceptional experience that blends the best of nature and adventure. Nestled in a picturesque setting, the camp provides a perfect escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. Whether you’re seeking thrilling outdoor activities, peaceful relaxation, or a place to connect with friends and family, Jolly Nose Camp has it all. Being the only available Hipcamp option during the Christmas period. We arrived at midnight from QLD with nothing booked & Jolly Nose had us covered we ended up extending our stay! Fabulous place!

Peaceful base station

8 m travel trailer

Camp Jolly Nose is a lovely peaceful block (cicadas included) tucked away from what can be a very busy Bonny Hills. It is only minutes to the beach, shops and restaurants and can easily be used as a base station (like we did) or a sole destination if you are looking for some peace and quiet. The block is slightly sloping, so if you have a van, take your levelling ramps. It is easy to find and access around the turning loop can be a bit of an adventure, however it is perfectly achievable if you take your time and go slowly over the bumps. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is set up to be self sufficient. The price is more than reasonable for the location.

Quite secluded camp, 15 min ride to MTB track or beach. Easy to find not too far off main highway.

Tent

Overall it was great, just may be difficult the access for the standard cars as mine was towed because one of the har rock hit the motor ( just an advice) beside that I loved my night there.
