Pet friendly campsite register
« on: May 11, 2011, 09:52:39 AM »
This has probably been done to death, but i have been researching possible places to camp with the pooch. I am in Qld and so far i have found Amamoor State Forest, Flannagans Reserve Rathdowney, and Neurum Creek. I thought that if everyone posted there spots in this thread it might be useful for easy referencing.

Great idea mate.  I'll kick it off with a spot most New Welshmen have visited - Newnes near Lithgow.

Lovely spot opposite the old pub...

QLD -
Red Rock (Near Byfield, Near Yeppoon)
Inskip Point
Cania George (in the pet friendly caravan park)


Do yourself a favour an grab a book called "Camping in QLD" published by "Boiling Billy Publications". Best thing we ever bought, and now that we're in WA we bought the WA version as well. Its mainly about National / State park camping but does have some caravan parks etc.

WA - Just buy the "Pet Friendly camping in south WA or North WA" books. The south WA one is Blue and the North WA one is orange. about $20 each - excellent for pet freindly bush camping!

This is a top idea  ;D  Could be worth asking one of the admin to set it up as a state by state thread though

I found this web site very good for van parks both pet friendly and not.
