Mays Bend Campground
Last Updated Jan 2014 | Originally suggested by combicombi
Basic (no amenities) bush camping on the edge of the Mary River near Bourke.
The campsites are on mostly undulating dirt with a few eucalypts for shade. There is some area just off the road, and a few sites by the edge of the water.
Not a bad spot to base for kayaking/fishing.
