I can't give you any first hand info but have a look at this post

Also look at NPWS sites as there may be something there. I have noticed that the Heritage Falls camping ground is reasonable but has no water, no toilets and fuel stoves only.
May the weather be welcoming.

A waterfall campsite without water. That's interesting . . .

Note also the road in from the north has been closed. See the Parks web site. Mention is also made of track erosion.

I did Leeaberra track last August. The campsite was fine and plenty of water. However there were a lot of floods last winter and the track to Heritage Falls was completely gone with fallen trees and scrub. You can have a fire in winter.
