Situated on Goondooloo Rd, this property offers 75 acres of beautiful mallee scrub to get away, to relax with friends, or head out on your own if you’re looking for some solitude. Campground is flat terrain, suitable for simply swagging it around the campfire or plenty of room for setting up camper trailers or caravans. You’ll love the spectacular night sky on a clear night under the Milky Way. The campground features a long drop toilet just a short walk from campground, as well as a shelter structure with some basic cooking and camping tools available for you to use. There is a large campfire fire as well as a small cooking fire pit, rainwater on tap during the wet season, and plenty of firewood for you to collect and use during camping (a saw for cutting wood is provided) Plenty of room to walk and explore, space galore for children to play and climb trees and plenty of timber lying around to build tee pees. Just 10 mins to the Murray River at Bowhill with boat ramp, playground with bbq facilities, public toilets, RV dump point, rubbish bins and the well loved Bowhill General Store for all your grocery needs, morning coffee, meals and kind hospitality.Come and enjoy a quiet and private getaway on our 75 acre piece of paradise. Pitch your tent or pull up in your caravan, perfect for 2 or a party of 22, on the open flat campground. Available all year round but you may find it very warm in the summer months and challenging with the friendly flies!!! Small cooking fire permitted during these months, except on total fire ban days. The campground features a shelter structure should it be rainy or really warm, large picnic table and a large campfire pit for bonfires is provided along with a smaller cooking fire pit. Basic cooking facilities are available in the way of a folding campfire cooking plate, bbq mate and tongs, Billy and toast maker. Water available on tap from the rainwater tank. Portable kitchen sink, detergent and hand soap available for washing dishes. A simple long drop toilet is available at the site. An RV dump point is not far away near the Bowhill General Store. When a morning coffee is a must, or lunch with friends with river views, it is just a quick 12 min dash to the Bowhill General Store. (Closed on Mondays) The property is not fenced but has recently been surveyed so a boundary walk following the white topped posts makes for a great way to explore the property. The Murray River and its beautiful red cliff faces are a short drive away, with boating and fishing readily available at the nearby boat ramps at Bowhill, Purnong and Walker Flat. Just 40 mins drive to picturesque Mannum.

Great Weekend Stay!

We had a great weekend! The facilities provided were great and made such a difference with the hand sanitiser, long drop and cooking equipment. We had a cooking fire and cooking sausages over the fire was fantastic.
