Nomad rest 4 klms from Gympie Post Office Qld.

We just spent about 6 days at this camp spot. It really is camping on private property right on the Tin Can Bay road. Very nice setting. Give the proximity to Gympie, we would go back again. Unfortunately one has to book thru You Camp. The site is listed on Wiki Camp. Jay&Dee
