Great little place to stay on the river. Had all you could need for an easy time away. Super handy having the boat ramp access and room to park the trailer etc. kids had a ball on the huge grassed area and loved the beach area for swimming. Shame we didn’t have great weather but will definitely be back at some stage in a warmer month!
