Aaah, The Serenity

Finally, a bush camp that is just perfect. We happened across the appropriately named “Hidden Creek” (Real camping) ground just out of Huskisson while out on a drive. After calling in and asked for a look around, we decided to pull up stumps at the caravan park in town and move to Hidden Creek. http://www.jervisbaycabins.com.au,  It’s just down the road from a 5 star camp ground that costs $480 per night! http://www.paperbarkcamp.com.au
Yes we will miss the constant stream of new friends walking only metres away from morn til night, and the sound of people packing up at some ungodly hour (before 9am) and the sympathetic sounds of the caravan park lawnmower and whipper snipper doing the rounds at all hours of the day. NOT.
Anyway, we have moved and we are the only ones here. The sun is shining and the birds are singing.
While most will think it’s a bit primitive, to us it’s perfect. We still have power, access to toilets and showers, 3 minutes from town and it’s in a beautiful bush setting.

There may be a few more critters around (as the ants crawl across the keyboard!) and I’m dreading the possibility of mossies and just hope it’s a bit early in their breeding season.
Came across a echidna this afternoon as we walked around camp which is right on the river (creek?), little bugger just curled up next to a rock.

  1. Hey Phil - That's an echidna, not a porcupine!
