It's just amazing. The trees are really tall and they have such a calming effect which was one of my favourite things. The trees are pretty shady, and there was usually a cool breeze, so the weather was just perfect but a bit cold at night.
There were also fewer flies than campsites closer to the city, such as belvidere.
We also got to see lots of wildlife such as tiger snakes and what I think was an iguana? Don't worry, neither of those were at the campsite itself but on the way to boranup Beach, which was significantly warmer than the campsite. Relax, I don't think you'll be seeing reptiles in your tent any time soon.
If you don't have a 4wd, the boranup
and deepdene beaches are not for you. You can use waze to see if your destination has an access point as well. Hamelin Bay is not too far away, and it's easy to access, so it's your best bet.
The ranger was also really nice and informative.
