Just wondering if anyone knows of any camping spots (no ameneties needed we take our own ) on the Nambucca River or the Taylors Arm River. Would prefer areas that are only accessible by boat - if there were fish there it would be a bonus. Moving there and have water acess so just want to jump in the boat and have a few days up river

Hi didiaust,
There is one
camp site near
macksville called Gumma. It is just east of
Macksville on the suothern side of the river and is actually on Warrell Creek. It is run by the
Macksville council or some such local body and the fees are quite reasonable.
There are
toilets, fire
places, tables and seats but little else.
It is right on the river bank, has a
boat ramp of sorts and is a nice spot to
camp and I thinkthere is a time limit of about 2 weeks, but I am sort of guessing.
Regards,
Bruce.

Thanks Bruce - Inspected Gumma - looks good - Hoping to find some spots not accessible by road on the other side of the highway.

Oppisite the golf club @ Nambucca is an Island bound by the Nambucca river on one side & Warrell crk on the other.....use to
camp over their when we where kids a long long long time ago......No fresh water etc.... OR oppisite the RSL club is an Island about 2 to 3 K's long & ?? 150mtrs wide used to be connected to the " V " wall until a flood late 1950's.....both only access by boat....Dont no the "legalities" of camping in these spots.
Cheers
