Two Mile Crossing is a 101 acre property consisting of mostly bushland with a small creek running through the middle, offering primitive bush camping for those who love to be out in nature. There is abundant birdlife here such as black cockatoos, kookaburras and tiny little robins, you will see bandicoots and the occasional goanna. The creek flows year 'round and when there has been good rains, there are plentiful deep water holes to dip your feet into and get cool.
There are a few walking tracks throughout the property for those who like to take short walks and for longer bushwalking adventures, Two Mile Crossing is bordered by the Fortis Creek National Park where there a plentiful tracks for those who love to explore the bush.
We are only 20 mins drive from the 'mighty' Clarence River which is great for swimming, canoeing and fishing and we are also only 25 mins from Grafton central which has shops, cinemas and places to eat.
Just recently we have added two gorgeous piglets to our family who love to hang out with us and the chickens. Come and help us feed every afternoon.

Great spot, incredible view of the stars at night and beautiful at sunrise. We did have a bull though which we had to hide from in the morning, he was being quite protective of his girls!

Amazing campgrounds , well maintained. So beautiful having a beach on a river it’s very nice. Some of the negatives tho not owners fault there are Bull Ants near bush area, I camped and had quiet a few walking around and I got stung on the hand which was not pleasant, so my advice find a more central spot in the grounds away from the bush. Also I took a tinnie boat with me it was a bad idea I managed to get the boat into the river but getting it back onto trailer was extremely difficult because it is very steep and sandy so it’s not advised , stick to a kayak. But I definitely would return just without a boat and find more central spot away from bush get away from the painful Bulldog ants

Our family had a wonderful stay thanks to Craig and Kerry. Directions were simple to follow and entry to the site was well maintained. The large grassy paddock was perfect for the kids to run around and we spent all day relaxing in the river and enjoying our private beach. There was a nasty storm overnight but Craig offered that we could park under the huge awning so we didn't have to worry about our setup. We're looking forward to coming back next Summer!

Great spot, large cleared area with plenty of sites all to yourself or would accommodate a large gathering. Orara river is lovely for a paddle and a swim in summer. Only people we saw were a couple of tinnies fishing down the river.

What a gem! A huge bush block with loads of great caravan-friendly campsites to choose from, so you can really find your own private slice of paradise. The freshwater river was absolutely beautiful - perfect for a swim. It felt wonderfully secluded and peaceful, yet still close enough to town to duck in if needed. If you love space, privacy and nature, this place is hard to beat. We’ll definitely be back.

Our site was neatly mowed and Micks directions easy to understand. Mick came to say a friendly hi in the evening. We woke to cows mooing and millions of cicadas - so peaceful!
The sites are far enough away they feel quite private. Only downside was the crew next site along played loud trance music till about 3am (new years eve)- not our hosts fault at all!!
I’d suggest asking for a well separated site in case of numpties like that odd one.
Overall great camping spot for country feels close to beautiful beaches.

It was a nice, refreshing spot to camp—peaceful and quiet, with no one around, so my dog could run freely without any issues. The weather was comfortable, not too hot, and the breeze was beautiful. If you’re looking for somewhere to relax and enjoy a cold one, this is the place.

If you want a bit of private, peaceful bush to pull up for a few days, then this will fit the bill. Cows and kangaroos, your own space, close to the highway and Evans Head. Definitely worth a stop. No problem at all…

Its just a cattle property... but its awesome!
Flat green paddocks, shady camp-sites.
Easy directions and good signage.
No crowds!! Perfect for a proper getaway, to relax and enjoy doing nothing, or have as much fun as you want with stuff you bring.
Evens head is only 15 minutes away!
Byo amenities is good, because that usually means seasoned campers.. which means the area hasn't been wrecked from people before you.
Would go back

Craig’s Private River Camp was the perfect destination for a relaxed camping Christmas with the extended family. There is plenty of space with not another soul in sight. Numerous potential sites to choose from each with a beautiful outlook. The river was a short walk from our selected camping area and we made use of the beach area with shade from a beautiful tree next to the waters edge. We also made use of the Kayaks available on site to do a bit of river exploring.
We are definitely planning to return.
