An excellent
camp site alongside the lake just 6kms from Collie on a sealed road (apart from the entry to the site). There are numerous
camp areas although 2 main areas with water frontage,
toilets and
bins. The other areas are large bush clearings and also have
toilets and
bins. It is so large you could always find a place a
camp if the water front sites are full.
The
camp areas are all shady, flat and will take large motor homes to tents. Expect some noise from a motor bike club across the lake during the day on the weekends. Flush
toilets are provided at one of the water front areas, the other is a long drop but impeccable condition.
The
campground has
toilets with universal access and although there are no designated individual campsites it does have the ability to offer group, family and individual camping.
Campfires are permitted but must be contained to fire-rings and only when fire restrictions are not in place. Fire ban in this region Oct-April.
Bookings do not apply at this
campground as it operates on a first-come, first-served basis. Camping fees are collected daily and must be paid in cash. Please have the correct amount as change is not provided.
Stockton Lake is very popular for boating and water skiing. While swimming is permitted, signage warns that visitors swim at their own risk because, due to past mining activities, the water is mildly acidic. Those with sensitive skin should limit their exposure to the water. The water in
places can suddenly become very deep and can be very cold, and submerged rocks are a
hazard. Don’t dive or jump in.
Pets are permitted and must remain on a leash at all times.
