Cobb In Co Camping Review
We have stayed here about 3 times over the years and have been totally satisfied with what they have on offer.
Our overall rating of this place would be 9 out of 10. We recommend anyone with kids and a large group to have a weekend here because it is fun!
Kiosk now has good coffee and a great place to hang out during the day.
Portable toilets are never our thing, but at least they were clean and in great locations. The waterhole can get a bit stale if it hasn’t rained for ages.
The bike tracks are fun for kids and adults just watch out for the jumps!
So why not try out the Cobb In Co Camping experience the next time you have the weekend off!
