Lakeside Camping Ground was developed for, and will cater for persons wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of city and or suburban living, to just sit back and relax, recharge, and respect the serenity. Lakeside was not developed for, and will not cater for, anyone wishing to cause a ruckus, annoy or frustrate other campers, or Management. Lakeside is a popular destination for families and for this reason we do not allow loud disruptive groups. Any group being disrespectful to other campers rights to a peaceful getaway will be asked to leave the property. Bookings are essential, no booking, no entry. Covid checkin on arrival, no entry to campground without a booking, and without checking in at residence first. Please do not drive into the residence's driveway, as you will be forced to back out, no turning around of any vehicles into, or past the gateway. Fees are cash only, as there is no eftpos available. In order for you to enjoy your stay, we ask that all guests abide by the rules, and we can all enjoy the Camp Ground for what it is intended, not a party ground, but for the simple Serenity, nothing more.

Attn. Craig Jones. I think you totally missed the point. We are not officially open, we cannot guarantee a booking for next Easter in 2027. We are not advertising for customers. We are not asking for more customers and we do not need anyone recommending Lakeside for future family camping destinations. I'm sorry if you did not get that from my answers. You were informed of our situation, there was no reason for you to take it the way you did, and I cannot apologise for that, so I'm posting here. If you see it, you see it, if you don't, you don't. Either way, we cannot change our situation, or circumstances. We have never advertised, never will. We are certainly not seeking extra customers either, since we are not officially open, with no guarantee we will ever open properly again. I'm not sure where the confusion was...🤷‍♂️

Sorry Guys..
No messenger again today.
Just have to wait for it to decide to be accessible.

I'll get to you as soon as possible.

I really don't know how to get the word out, that the amenities block, at Lakeside, is PRIVATE PROPERTY, and NOT FOR PUBLIC CONVENIENCE, for the campers free camping along the river. There's been a constant stream of self entitled, or very misinformed free campers, showering and using the toilets, stealing towels, and whatever else they feel they need, to take back to their camp. It's absolutely infuriating that these people think it's their right to come in off the streets, and use the facilities, and head back to their camps. I don't know how to stop this from happening, but we're sure not keen to pay their costs of hot showers for free. And please don't comment, if you think that's selfish, like some have in the past, even when I asked them if they'd open their house for passers by, to use their facilities somehow they reckoned that wasn't a fair comparison.

🔥 Fire Ban Season announced 🔥
Murraylands
1 November 2025 - 30 April 2026

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1KvJ8FnwWo/?mibextid=wwXIfr

The 2025/26 Fire Danger Season will begin soon across several of South Australia’s Fire Ban Districts.

These districts will start on the same dates as last year, reflecting rainfall deficiencies and reduced soil moisture levels.

We are urging all South Australians to take the threat of bushfire seriously by preparing their properties now and reviewing their Bushfire Survival Plans.

Dates for the remaining Fire Ban Districts will be announced in the coming weeks following further local consultation.
