About Us
Bright Cabin and Caravan Park
Bright Cabin and Caravan Park, Camp Crusty, started life in the late 1930s as a camp for loggers working in the local pine plantations.
During the 1950s it morphed into a camp that hosted school groups and clubs.
More recently it has become a destination for tourists travelling to the Bright area looking for a natural holiday experience.
Our History
Camp Crusty has a rich history being one of the most historic areas in the Alpine Region.
We are a natural caravan park, with grass sites, native flora and fauna, and access to a river so clean that we regularly see platypus swimming there.
We are a caravan park perfect for people wanting a break from the hustle and bustle of general life. We give our campers the opportunity to reconnect to nature and relax.
