Hello everyone:
My family and I will be visiting Australia in June/July and hiring a motorhome to do some camping and touring. As my son is keen to visit the Australia Zoo a bit north of
Brisbane, we wondered if you could recommend a
good campground in that area. We would ideally like one equipped with what we in the US would call "hookups" -- electric line and water for the motorhome.
We've had good luck booking sites via the web throughout NSW but this area remains a puzzle.
Oh, and how crucial are advance bookings in early July?
Many thanks!
Tom

Tom,
Are you looking for powered or unpowered sites. There are a good variety of both in this part of the world so let us Know and I can give you some information.

Hi Tom,
There is a van park close to Steve Irwin's park. The name I don't know (but it isn't the one above) it is easy to find. The road leading North out of
Brisbane is a piece of cake and has a
well sign posted turn off to the zoo (the t/o to the zoo is about 20K) about 15 k along this road is a park it didn't look busy when I drove past last week as it is somewhat out of the main flow.
The term here for hookups is a powered site.
I'm sure you'll enjoy your visit there.
Kind regards

Scottp, BrianB, Beatit -- thank you very much. We're definitely looking for a powered site for the motorhome! For two or three nights I should think.
Would it be dumb of us to just roll into the area in early July with no advance booking in hand, or would we be
well-advised to reserve?
Thanks again!
Tom
