We visited the Broadwater camp site, which is about 30 klms out of Dalby off the Moonie Hway. What a great presentation, however there is a charge of $6 p.p. per night. But!!! It was raining and we experienced gale force winds of up to 60 klms plus coming off the lake. We have moved on to the Bowenville Res...

The parking area is at William Kemp Park off East Street, Gatton and was officially completed late last week. Mayor Tanya Milligan s...

This place has been mentioned back in 2013 by Herbie but a few things have changed. The cost is $3 per night for a powered concrete site and there is a beautiful salt water pool and amenities block.

Hi, folks. Attached is a video I shot on the Lake Broadwater camping grounds, out near Dalby. It's a great spot, not expensive, and gives two types of camp options.

Stayed here 29/10/16. Large area, shade trees. Near the pub and park with toilets if you stay near the entrance . The swinging bridge goes across the creek and is a walking bridge only. Well kept area. There is some power if you need it. I think you pay for that at the pub.
