2. MARY RIVER
WILDERNESS RETREAT 3. MORE CAMPING
IN MARY RIVER
A great place to camp is
at Mary River Wilderness
Retreat, an absolute gem of
a place and an excellent base
camp for the entire region.
Don’t expect a flash toilet
block, but the setting well
makes up for that. To set off
for a day of exploring and
to then return to Mary River
Retreat for a swim in the
pool before beer o’clock is a
delight. River cruises are
on offer and are okay,
but if the budget only
allows for one, pick
the Corroboree
cruise. The Mary River National Park
area offers three places to
camp, accessed via Point Stuart
Road. Couzens Campground
is at the end of Rockhole Road
and is perfect for those wanting
a secluded bush camp. Point
Stuart Wilderness Lodge
offers such creature comforts
as showers, a swimming pool
and a saloon. Shady Camp has
camping but no shade and
seems to be popular with
RVers who want to set-up
for weeks at a time.
