 Camp Description

The pub welcomes caravans and campers to set up in front of it, alongside the riverbanks. The amenities are available 24/7, and you can donate a gold coin to use the showers, with the proceeds supporting the Royal Flying Doctors Service.
The 1864 end of the pub offers rooms for guests, but there are no en-suite facilities. Instead, there is a communal bathroom separate from the amenities.
Swags are welcome on the verandas after hours. Although camping is free of charge, visitors are responsible for keeping the area and Nindigully clean for those who come afterwards.
The beer garden is dog-friendly, but dogs must be always on a lead and cleaned up afterwards.
Nindigully Pub, also known as The Gully, is the oldest hotel in Queensland and has been kept in its original condition and position on the banks of the Moonie River.
