The Gums Campground reviews

We had a great stay here. The camp ground is easily accessible by any car with good clearance. …

Great campsite. Very sheltered from the wind by thick bush. Very close to town. Drop toilet good - watch out for the odd Inch ant though! Heaps of mozzies (all over Robe not just here), but not aggressive. We had a Wombat visit about 4pm …

Photos show green grass get there and black dirt. Long drop toilet with no water for cleaning or TP. Paid money to fight off sand flies really. Wouldn't want a van any bigger then 21 foot or so. I would say some where else if you could.

The campground is in a great location, easily accessible by car. It is very sheltered from the wind by thick bush. The drop toilet is well-maintained, but it's important to watch out for the Inch ants. There are a lot of mosquitoes in the area, but they are not aggressive. We even had a visit from a Wombat in the late afternoon. Overall, we had a great stay here.

The campground is conveniently located near town and is surrounded by thick bush, providing excellent shelter from the wind. The drop toilet is clean and in good condition, although there are occasionally Inch ants present. There are quite a few mosquitoes in the area, but they are not bothersome. We had a Wombat visit our site one afternoon, which was a unique experience. Overall, it was a great campsite.

We were disappointed with the campground as it did not match the photos shown. Instead of green grass, there was black dirt. The long drop toilet did not have any water for cleaning or toilet paper. We had to pay extra to deal with sand flies. Additionally, the campground is not suitable for larger vans. I would recommend looking for another campground if possible.

The campground turned out to be just as described. It was easily accessible by any car with good clearance. The thick bushes provided great shelter from the wind. The drop toilet was in good condition, although we did encounter some Inch ants. There were a lot of mosquitoes, but they were not aggressive. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

The campground is well-located and can be easily reached by car. The surrounding thick bush offers good protection from the wind. The drop toilet is clean and functional, but be cautious of Inch ants. There are many mosquitoes in the area, but they are not aggressive. We had the chance to see a Wombat in the late afternoon, which was a unique experience. Overall, it was a great campsite.

The photos of the campground are misleading as they show green grass, but in reality, it is black dirt. The long drop toilet does not have water for cleaning or toilet paper. We had to pay additional money to deal with sand flies. It is not suitable for larger vans. I would recommend considering other campgrounds if possible.
