Beautiful location. Playground. Toilets. BBQ. Awesome fun place to break up the to from Sydney to Armidale. Lots to do. Shop nice and close. Came here during Covid and the place was quite busy. But normally it's quite quiet. The kids love this park.

A pleasant park, which is well equipped for entertaining children of all ages. Somewhat ravaged by recent floods, but still well worth a visit for a picnic lunch or just to relax.

Spontaneously popped in over the long weekend with our little dog. Sat outside in the sun and had a taste of Steve’s boutique wines. Steve was very accommodating and took his time explaining each wine to us. Highly recommend the Chardonnay and Chambourcin. An absolutely stunning estate and 2 friendly Shepard dogs to make you feel extra welcome.
Gareth L — Google review
We had a beautiful afternoon tasting the delicious wines of Mograni Creek Estate. Couldn’t have asked for better weather or atmosphere! We opted for the wine and cheese tasting, which I’d highly recommend! Steve was a great host, telling us about each wine and answering all of our questions. He has a lovely relaxed nature and is passionate and knowledgeable. The Chardonnay was our favourite of the day. But we walked away with some Chardonnay, sparkling Rosé and Chambourcin to enjoy.

The Cliff Edge walk was stunning and all paths in good repair for a grade 4 hike Thanks peeps at the local NP !!!!
Diana B — Google review
It's nice visiting or camping by the river at the camp grounds but the walks in NP are in a terrible condition with about 80% weed coverage in fact most of the bush is completely smothered by weeds. I have no idea how long it has been this way but until there is some action taken to get rid of the weeds, I couldn't recommend the walks to anyone. It's depressing unfortunately. Obviously, very few people doing reviews have bothered to go on the 4 km cliff edge walk.
Brian T — Google review
Perfect place to camp, swim and just chill out. There is a couple of walking tracks to check out, so great for a weekend trip.
