Reflections Scotts Head – Pristine Surf Stays and Coastal Serenity at Point Corner

Welcome to Reflections Scotts Head – Holiday Park, a breathtaking coastal sanctuary where the crystal-clear waters of the Pacific meet the iconic headlands of the Mid North Coast. Nestled on the edge of the sleepy, sun-drenched village of Scotts Head, our park is famously positioned right at “Point Corner”—the gateway to one of Australia’s most celebrated longboard surf breaks. Surrounded by the natural splendour of the Gaagal Wanggaan (South Beach) National Park, Scotts Head offers a rare, unhurried atmosphere that feels like a journey back to the golden era of the Australian beach holiday. Whether you are waking up to the sound of the ocean or enjoying a sunset over the headland, our park provides a serene base for every type of coastal enthusiast.

At Reflections Scotts Head, we pride ourselves on providing a high standard of comfort and a diverse range of accommodation options to suit the modern traveller. Our park is renowned for its absolute beachfront access, allowing you to walk from your site directly onto the sand in seconds. We offer everything from premium self-contained cabins with private verandas to spacious, level powered sites designed for caravans and motorhomes. Our facilities are crafted to enhance your coastal lifestyle, featuring a modern camp kitchen, clean amenities blocks, and direct access to the vibrant village shops and cafes. As a dog-friendly park (on sites), we welcome your four-legged companions to share in the adventure, making it the ultimate destination for the whole family to reconnect with nature.

The Scotts Head region is a spectacular landscape of discovery, from the world-class surf at the point to the tranquil reaches of the Warrell Creek estuary. From our gates at Adin Street, you have direct access to the Scotts Head lookout, which offers panoramic views and prime whale-watching opportunities during the migratory season. We promote a philosophy of “slow coastal living,” where you can spend your days surfing, beach fishing, or simply exploring the uncrowded sands of South Beach. Experience the fresh salt air, the friendly local hospitality, and the quiet majesty of a town that remains a hidden paradise. We invite you to discover why Reflections Scotts Head is the preferred destination for return visitors seeking a genuine, unpolluted Australian holiday. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
