Anyone stayed in that area lately. I stayed in the
camp ground behind the pub years ago.But has this been upgraded as it was it bit tired back then.
Cheers Scoof . :-)

I stayed overnight there about ten months ago. There is a
campground opposite the hotel behind the now defunct
Dingo Cafe. It is a large area and has barbecue sites,cabins and shower &
toilets. Not 5 star but upmarket for the area.

Stayed there a month ago. As Graham said about the
campground.
I was in one of the Dongas. Bit cramped but not bad.

We had some fun at the pub and drove down the track for 20kms to
camp off the side.
Fire, stars, perfect.
Cheers

Hi Scoof,
We stayed at the
camp ground across the road form the Pub for 2 nights just before
Easter - both grounds I are owned by the Pub.
Hot water wasn't working and very little water pressure in the now "cold" showers. They had the irrigation system going all the time we were there and that was the cause of the pressure problem.
We (& a heap of other campers) complained about the 'hot' water the manager/owners shrugged their shoulders and said 'oh
well...it's not working'!
If we
camp in
William Creek again we will just
free camp near the
public toilets across front he pub (like the back packers were doing) and slip in to see if the hot water is on :-)
Cheers
Alex

Stayed in the
campground (unpowered) over the road from the pub about two weeks ago. Showers are ensuite portables but water was hot. Owners dont turn on the generator till dark but showers and
toilets work okay. Have a shower early as the HWS is limited in supply. Small trees but if you
camp in the right aspect you will get some afternoon shade.
Campground behind the pub is powered but said to be noisy as near the gennie that runs 24/7

I stayed at the
campground opposite the pub in early June for 3 nights, all was good, had a little problem with the gas hot water shower, but Nev from the pub fixed it up real quick, and it wasn't helped by the clown who stole a tap from a shower the night before and left the water running all night.
