General Comments
Endeavour River Escape was a great stop over on our trip up to Cape York. The owners were very welcoming, the sites were spacious and shady, and watching the sun go down whilst sitting at the fire pit was spectacular!
There were 26 spacious campsites set on the 250 acre property, which meant the kids had ample room to stretch their legs after a long car trip. The whole place – including the amenities – was immaculate, and there was even the option to buy firewood, honey and passionfruit.
The spacious layout was suitable for RV’s, tents, camper trailers, caravans and big rigs. A heads up that there is no internet signal at this spot though.
