    Cheap and close the the swimming hole. The facilities were not great. Only cold showers, relatively clean toilets (missing toilet paper in most). Unfortunately people leave rubbish behind all around the place. Clearly not attended very often. People turn up late at night, as there's no one managing the arrivals. Plenty camping spots among the trees.

    Fabulous camp site, good toilets and cold showers. Water hole 100m away is fabulous. One of the top Parks campgrounds I have stayed at. Quite OK for caravans, little tight for big ones I imagine, but for smaller ones fine. Rock slide swimming hole 2k away is closed currently.

    $7.25 per person,book through the Queensland website. Make sure it is open as Jorouma falls for example isn't at the moment. Nice site, lots of people and families, not dump point and no bins we could see. Lovely creek a few minutes walk away. Fair few mosquitoes but not the worst we have experienced.

    Cheap, clean amenities. You must book online before arrival, cannot book on site. Site is basic with flushing toilets and cold showers. Can swim at nearby swimming hole. Sites are not marked and sonspace runs out during busy season, despite booking im advance. This is because people take up too much space. A good spot for 1-2 nights, very affordable price and easily accessible in a van or camper

    Beautiful campsite, swimming in the creek was definitely a highlight. Great to have a little fire in the fire pits, bring the mosquito repellent though.

    Great campsite, cold showers, toilets, cast iron campfire tubs provided at each camp, neat and well maintained. Definitely recommend

    Super busy and has a school camp feel with many many school age children running around. It’s great to see children camping, but too many utes and their camper trailers set up in this place. It was crowded badly and it was the first campsite between Perth and Cairns that we decided to leave. Go to the end and sleep at the boulders 2 km away where there was only one other car until sunset and then the place was empty until 8:30 when some water pipe maintenance trucks arrived. It was super quiet and peaceful, but the main campground was beyond busy.

    Beautiful place, but the showers are closed « to stop the spread of coronavirus » yeah ok... Maybe supplying soap OR not allowing so many people at the same time to make physical distancing possible would be more efficient.
