This spacious and open riverside campground with no amenities is located well off the highway. It is accessible in a dry weather only via a turn just opposite the Coongan River rest area.
Coongan Pool, also known as Long Pool, is a remote campsite located on the river banks. While it's not signposted, it can be accessed through a gate about 1 km up the road opposite Doleena Gorge. Some reviewers have found it to be a "hidden paradise" with plenty of long-term campers, while others have been disappointed due to the lack of a designated turn-off and rest stop.
The campsite is situated in a beautiful spot, but it has its downsides. One reviewer noted that there's very little shade, and another warned that it's not suitable for everyone, particularly those without good camping gear. Despite these issues, the campsite seems to be a gem for those who appreciate the great outdoors and are willing to bring their own equipment.
Overall, the reviews suggest that Coongan Pool is a good option for those who are looking for a peaceful and secluded camping experience, but it's not ideal for those who require more amenities or prefer a more developed campsite.
