On the edge of town on Patterson’s Rd, it is just off the Brown’s Well Hwy, this site takes in a plantation of native species as well as part of the town. It’s a bit isolated from other quality habitats but it will be interesting to see what this plantation attracts. In the town is a quirky little campsite go check it out.

Camp rating 6 it’s quirky, but not an attractive place to stay, the camp is free, but the showers cost
