This is a freshly graded area that is currently red dirt. We have levelled a site with grass seed planted. Fairly hidden down the hill- you will need 4 wheel drive as most of the road is grass last bit is dirt (will add photos). Surrounded by tall trees and bush. This is quite a distance from shared amenities so you're better off being self-sufficient here.

Get place and our place was a nice private campground. The other site has fantastic views but is also in front of the owners house. We arrived in a large 6 berth and had not problems entering. Nice clean toilets and a fire place (but not used due to rain). Would definitely come back -

We had a two wheel drive van, and were able to drive down to an area with an incredible view of the valley and sunset. The amenities block has everything you need. It was an amazing experience camping here. Thanks Cathy!

Wonderful wild-feel place with lovely, relaxed hosts. Good mix of being within nature while also having great quality shower/toilet right nearby. Do visit the nearby Koala rehabilitation center in Lismore!

We had an awesome time at Ridgy Didge, they have an amazing view and the tiny house provided some great facilities. Cathy really looked out for us and went to the trouble of hand drawing a very detailed map. Thanks for the great stay guys!

Awesome property with a great view and the hosts went out of their way to try and make my stay as comfortable as possible. Can’t rate this youcamp property highly enough.
