Budget camping around Mackay
(Preview)
Leaving Rockhampton on or around the end of this month, and heading for MacKay and then to Townsville. Are there any budget priced C.P's or low cost camping spots on the way? Toilets & showers would be great, but toilets are a necessity. Towing a small van. Many thanks Peterpan.
