About this campsite

The Sleepy Hollow Rest Area is a convenient roadside rest stop just off the Pacific Highway, complete with a playground and toilet facilities.

It's a great place for travellers to take a break, stretch their legs, and recharge for the road ahead.

Sleepy Hollow Rest Area is strategically placed along the bustling Pacific Highway, serving as a bustling stopover for trucks and travellers. Despite its constant noise due to incoming and outgoing traffic, particularly from large vehicles, it offers visitors a quintessential roadside rest experience. Additionally, it features amenities such as a playground and toilets, perfect for those traveling with families. For a quieter alternative, consider the nearby Yelgun Rest Area, a mere 5-minute drive to the south.
