Great space. Main site is the size of a football field with sites 1-4 positioned in each corner and then another off shute for site 5. All with fire pits. Plenty of room for groups at each site without encroaching on the other sites. Well maintained, grassed area. Shane came around to check everything was okay, very welcoming. The campsite is only a short walk to the Mary River and the shops of Kenilworth.

Tony has a beautiful spot for all campers and camper dogs. Very beautiful and quiet place to unwind from the fast pace day to day life. I will definitely be making a return back here. Tony is also very friendly and is very responsive in messaging and assisting on the camp ground if needed.

It was a very enjoyable 2 nights we spent camping at Tony’s property. My friends and i all don’t live close together and having a great camp site to spend some quality time together was great. Camp was clean, and toliet were provided which was great for the girls!!

Great spot, highly recommend!
Camping area has 5 spots on a large property and are all far apart making it very private.
Camping areas are well maintained and each spot has its own fire pit.
Super close to town and surrounding national parks and state forests. Will definitely be back 👍

We loved finding this last minute camp spot! It was very easy to find and was exactly as described. I loved the animals free roaming through our campsite and I got to pet the goats and kids who were friendly and inquisitive. Location was amazing a few minutes drive into Nambour to Aldi, supermarkets, shops etc. We had a really yummy coffee at Muffin whole in the old fire station, a must to try when visiting. Also was a big fan of the 20-25mins drive to Maroochydore beach, amazing to have surf within close proximity aswell. We will definitely be back to stay at Jenna’s place. Thank you :)

This is a great little camping spot, well maintained and quiet. The creek space is great, and I imagine with a little more rain people wouldn't leave. We booked a second night.

Tony was super accommodating and we camped on top of a hill with the place to ourselves. Be mindful of the track down in the wet. Would recommend.
