A very peaceful camping spot.
Tent · With pets
We enjoyed the peace and quiet there, and were on our own. All we could hear is the creek, the crickets and the wind in the tall gum tree. It is a great spot to get away, and is only ten minutes out of Ulverstone. Candy was very helpful and welcoming.

Great spot to camp for the night! Parked up next to the river and saw plenty of wildlife, hosts were kind and accommodating.

Lovely spot and the kids really enjoyed it. The stream was great for the kids to play in and we all had a very relaxing and peaceful time and some great scenery to look at
