20 Feb 2012 - Bretti Reserve, NSW

Less than half an hour’s drive north from Gloucester on Thunderbolts Way, Bretti Reserve has basic facilities, but it’s spacious and the river is close by so it’s good for swimming. Pets are allowed here, but preferably not near the Platypus Pool.  You must bring your own firewood and drinking water.
We were lucky enough to see a couple of platypuses(?) last time we stayed, but this time – especially for only 1 night – nothing at all.  Rick didn’t take any photos, but I found this YouTube video (courtesy ‘bigants’ 24 Oct 2007) which gives a good idea of the place.

Just love the quiet!
