Pristine beaches are 20 minutes away, mountains and four-wheel drive tracks are a quick 20 minutes the other way. From here it's 15 minutes to Bellingen, 25 minutes to the famous Pub With No Beer and 5 minutes to the historic "verandah posts" town of Bowraville. Here you will find beautiful bird watching, animals and wildlife. Park your car or set up your caravan next to the river where you will wake up to amazing views. Enjoy a peaceful walk along the riverbank, breathe in the fresh clean air, try a spot of fishing or sit back and enjoy some bird watching. Warm your feet by the campfire in the evenings. ​We're located 20 minutes from Nambucca Heads as well as Scotts Heads beaches, and 30 minutes from Taylors Arm. A quick trip up into the foothills will take you to some great 4WD and mountain biking tracks, or you can explore the region and visit the historical Pub With No Beer. You need to be a self-contained camper with your own camping toilet/shower. There is access to drinking water, a picnic table and rubbish facilities.

Weekend Trip to Oasis of Hope
What an incredible site...certainly was an oasis. Excellent facilities and the setting was amazing. The availability of a washing machine and airer was so welcome. The directions should simply say drive along the track after going through the gateway until the track ends. I would certainly recommend the site.

Nice quiet camp site, with plenty of room and good amenities. The creek was lovely, perfect way to cool down and refresh on a hot summers day. I was a bit concerned booking during school holidays, that it may be busy but was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Directions to the property made it easy to find. Thanks for having us!

By far one of my favourite places to camp and visit. The camp grounds are pristine, the view is breathtaking and the walk to the falls. Can’t fault it!

Had a great stay Here. We were greeted by both host upon arrival and shortly after. Only downside was that there was no signal where we were staying, and they only offer 10 amp for electrical. But that was said when we booked. Overal was great for a night !

Amazing spot, just 10 minutes from everything. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We extended our stay because we loved it so much. Our kids absolutely enjoyed the animals, especially the friendly dogs. Evenings by the fire and beautiful sunsets and sunrises over the river made it extra special. 10/10 — the best place we’ve stayed so far.

Awesome green huge area with enough space for everyone. We were a bit worried about the place would be overcrowded, but the number of visitors after 4th of Jan were very minor (about 15). The sites could be picked up under shade and on the sunny spots. Access to the creek is awesome to have a refreshing bath. Toilet area is kept clean. There’s laundry area as well. Drinking water is also available.

Such a great spot to pass through or stay a while. Kids loved playing by the creek and watching the two ducks that hung around the paddock. Close to coffee harbour and many beautiful beaches

The photos don't do this place justice. Hands down the best spot we have ever camped. The swimming hole was amazing, will definitely be back again and again. Thanks Nick!

Oasis is a good word for this location. Nestled away, it is a little haven. Wonderful waterfall and swimming hole too.
