Canberra caravan parks

You could try the one at EPIC, (Exhibition Park In Canberra), in other words the showgrounds.

It seems to be popular and it's close to town.

While your showing the kids the sites, take a drive out to the Brindabellas.

Check out this thread. Thread 70393

Eagles Nest I think on the way in from the North (Federal Hwy) is reasonable or some good camping sites out toward Casurina Sands (Cotter River) Don't think they charge there but nice outlook. Not sure I'd leave it there for the day while we went sightseeing though. Nearly 20 years since I called it my backyard.
OItherwise Queanbeyan would have some Parks.

Happytravelers - we stayed in the Motor Village Motel and Caravan Park in O'Connor which was very good - must state that we only stayed in their units. And this was about 5 years ago.

O'Connor is very close to the city and Black Mountain.

We stayed at Canberra Motor Village in Kunzea St.

Is on the way to Belconnen but only 3 or 4 mins from CBD

Is an old park but has large drive thru sites and clean facilities.

Was pretty bleak in early April when we were there but had an enjoyable stay.

Canberra is never hot Im told.

As the public service people say the best view of Canberra is from the back of

a bus heading somewhere else.

No really its a nice place and has changed a lot since I was last there in 1964

when i camped out where there is now a great big lookout on Mt Ainslie.

Go up the Telstra tower for a great view.

Cheers

We stayed at the show grounds 18 months ago, it cost us $20 a night for the 5 of us, great amenities and good size sites.

cheers,

Lance

I was in the Canberra Motor Village (O'Connor) 6 weeks ago. Clean place,good size sites and drive throughs as well. No complaints here!
September archive on www.cooneystour.blogspot.com has a pic of the van on site if you're interested.

I did the same thing with my kids and found it was well placed to get to most of the attractions without having to go through the CBD everytime.
If you're going to the War Memorial it opens at 10.00AM I'm pretty sure. Do a free guided tour for about 90mins if your kids will sit still for that long. Found it very interesting and the knowledge the guide has was great.

Hi Happytravellers
We go to Canberra often (daughter lives there) always stay at Canberra Motor and caravan park Kuzan st O'conner.
Older facilities, drive through sites, bit noisey if the school excursion kids are in, make sure you take leveling wood as none of the sites are level.
Good food at the Rugby Club down the road about 2 klms.
Regards
Ted
