Scott's campsite on the Maroochy River is a favorite among campers seeking a peaceful retreat. Visitors consistently commend the well-maintained grounds, the proximity to the river for fishing and crabbing, and the serene atmosphere away from road noise. Scott's hospitality shines through, with many noting his welcoming nature and helpfulness. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, occasional mentions of bugs and cramped spaces hint at minor challenges for some guests.

Scott is a great host, communication prior to arrival was prompt and accommodated us turning up early. We were met by Scott on arrival and shown to our site and given a rundown on his property. All sites face the Maroochy River a mere 5m away with fish and crabs for the taking. The nearest beach is only a short 10 minute away as is all the amenities you would want. Thank you Scott for the stay, it’s a great property you have. Rod & Gina Harris
