About this campsite

The Major Creek Reserve Camping Area is a serene site with a variety of bird species, perfect for enthusiasts. Visitors are advised to note the all-dirt feature of the area which might be unsuitable during wet periods. After undergoing repairs, the site's bridge is once again available for use. Upgrades like new long drop toilets were added in 2018, enhancing visitor's convenience, and a boat ramp is in progress to expand aquatic activities.

Major Creek Reserve Camping Area is an idyllic and peaceful destination that offers immersive nature experiences. It is particularly known for its rich variety of birds and is a haven for birdwatchers. The area primarily offers dirt grounds, adding a rustic charm to the overall camping experience. But note, it may not be suitable for camping during rainy reasons, due to its soil condition. However, continuous enhancements are being made for the convenience of campers and visitors.

This camping site is evolving constantly to provide a better and more versatile outdoor experience for all its guests.
