Hawkesbury Riverside Gardens

Fabulous large camping sites right on Hawkesbury River. Richard the on-site caretaker was great in accommodating us with drive thru sites. Views and platform over river with table and chairs were great.

I lived there in the 90,s early 2000 before pool and playground ECT loved it there were ten long term residents I was one and then about 15 permanent holiday vans and a few for rent as well was great most sights had own bbq area and little grass area parking and plenty room for van and Annex

Our first ever road trip in our New Age caravan was to Hawkesbury Riverside Gardens, and we loved every minute. Brad and Linda were amazing to deal with and very helpful. So peaceful, with well kept gardens. Great entertaining area and close to IGA and surrounding shops in Windsor & Richmond if you need anything. Awesome!

We found Susie to be extremely friendly and helpful to provide a decent camping ground that is next to the Hawkesbury River for fishing, kayaking or boating but primarily water skiing. The grass was lush, pool was clean, children’s play ground was brand new, communal outdoor kitchen provide all the needs that you’d need & there is an outdoor TV to watch the grand final under an awning. We all enjoyed our experience at this location and would like to visit again in this season coming up.

The grounds are clean and tidy camp kitchen was new and good area for large groups, however the BBQ ran out of gas after breakfast on Saturday morning and wasn't refilled until that night after several complaints from campers. The amenities block were a little old and use tank water which comes out brownish in color and has an unpleasant odor, the tolites and showers are not cleaned over the weekend so got progressively worse but most of the campers tidied up after themselves so still useable. During our stay the fellow patrons were fun and friendly, the site manager however was an unpleasant person to deal with. She would kick kids out of the pool area for "breaking rules" that weren't posted anywhere nor in the campground rules you are provided upon entry, on multiple occasions she had yelling matches with campers at the pool and common areas in full view of the everyone. She also locked the pool area due to ongoing issues she was having with a few groups that were staying at the park, meaning no one could use this popular feature of the campground. When she patrolled the grounds she was constantly drinking a beer while driving a small motorized cart around with children and families nearby. There is a vending machine however it doesn't give change regardless the denomination of money used. They also had no ice for the entire weekend although they had advertised otherwise. The grounds are good, it's just unfortunate that the management is unable to maintain them or deal with the patrons in a clam and professional manner. We won't be returning until there is a change of management.
