    Nice quiet rest area off the main road. It's March and I'm the only person here. Lake has not seen water for a long time, it is just salt encrusted and can be walked. Mind you I didn't venture far, you don't know what dangers lay below. No water = no mozzies, few pesky flies though. No amenities including bins apart from covered picnic tables. Good Telstra coverage. Intermittent ABC / SBS TV

    Lovely spot on the lake. No services, must be self contained, 48 hr max. Great sunset!

    A lovely spot, beautiful sunset over the lake. Lots of mozzies at sunset though, disappointing no fires allowed according to signage at this time of year when it's still cold and everywhere is green. Worth a night (48hr maximum, self contained in the sign).

    Easy to use area. Signed now for 48 hr stopovers. Late winter and no insects at all.

    Great spot. Quiet, remote and free. No facilities... Beautiful spot for sunset... And can stock up on supplies nearby in Wongan hills. Great playground for kids near IGA too. Plenty of firewood around.
