Just got back from Dunns Swamp and I must admit I was bowled over by how amazing this place is. Very well organised with lots of room for campers and caravaners.

There are plenty of things to do and see. My only regret is I didn't get to hire a canoe but that just means I'll have to visit again in the Summer months.

I've been invited to go with a group to this campsite. I like my modern life ie real showers and toilets. How will I survive...

Sorry no generators allowed to be used in this National Park (now pets or chainsaws either)
It is a great campsite - worth going without power for the night if you can.

Andy M - Fires permitted at this campsi

IP:203.38.85.xxx | 2012-05-10 03:35:39

Hi there
I'm just wondering if it's possible to have a small fire for cooking and heat at this campground? I'm hoping to stay for a weekend in late May and I'm sure it will get rather cool in the evenings. If anyone has visited recently any advice would be greatly appreciated.
