They stayed at a stunning spot nestled right on the banks of the Clarence River in NSW.

Absolutely amazing property overlooking the river. Generously spaced out campsites with great views and quick access to facilities. Wide range of 4wd tracks across the huge 1300 acres with the occasional “skid pad” to cut loose with mates. Ben and Grace are the most genuine honest owners and they will make your stay one to remember. Can’t wait to come back in the summer ????
