The Hideaway
This clearing is surrounded by bush and at the bottom of Bunyip's Camp. The river is down the slope you can see in the photo, past the motor home, and has short walking tracks along it.
The Wattle Grove
A shady campsite clearing that's private and at the top of a walking track down to the creek.
Under the Pine
There's a huge pine tree at the centre of the bottom paddock ( on the left of this picture ) and you can camp in the paddock in front of it, or pitch a tent right under it, surrounded by the trees.
Brooke's Nook
A large paddock south of the small dam. This spot stays pretty sunny most of the day unbless you pitch your site close to the side trees.
The Top Paddock
Usually the driest spot because it's higher up the slope.
