This is a caravan park with a large grassy camping area. Close to highway (M1) and beach. It is an ideal place for families to stay for a few days to explore the beach, national park and a lot more. For travelers who want to stop overnight, this park is conveniently located to get on & off the highway with ease. We are dog-friendly for friendly dogs. We are upgrading the infrastructure (water, sewer, stormwater and electricity) of the park. Due to capital requirement and for the convenience of existing residents, the upgrade will be undertaken in multiple stages. The road will be concreted after all infrastructure are installed. During the process of upgrading, there will be some trenching and digging. The trench may be not filled property. The swimming pool is not available for maintenance until further notice.

4 nights at Groundswell Guest Camp

This was the perfect getaway in a tranquil, bush location on Yaegal Country. The amenities were excellent and as stated. Groundswell was just what we needed and look forward to returning again soon. Thank you Lauren. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to MICALO E.CO

We loved this spot, Tully was so nice and accommodating as we arrived. So much space to choose from which was lovely, nice and flat & clean which made for an easy set up & pack down. Cleanest portaloo I’ve seen & nice outdoor shower which was refreshing in the heat. Close to the shops & beach as well. Would definitely recommend this spot and will definitely be back soon with friends!

The site is really amazing, spacious and surrounded by kangaroos. Each site has its own fireplace and you are not bothered by other campers. Would definitely recommend!

Squiggles farm was beautiful. Lucky enough to see dolphins up close! Our dogs loved it & so did we. Little finches in the mandarin tree were special to see up close. Farm dogs are absolutely lovely

We had a great time camping here. Booked last minute for a group of 7. Made a big campfire with fire food from the campsite, lots of kangaroos waiting for our arrival and great covered cooking area. Perfect for some peace and bird watching, a great experience ☺️ Tully came down to meet us when we had questions and was very friendly and helpful!

Absolute champion of a bloke. And to camp on his neat well kept part of the river was a privilege to my partner and I. Mr Squiggles was out maintaining his property all day long , yet still was available for a good story or two while bringing in fire wood and making the stay feel that much more comfortable and relaxed. And his knowledge and passion for the land is second to none. Ill be back to cull the caties soon that's for sure. All the best ya bloody legend. Andy & Kylie

1 night at Yellow Butterfly

This was the loveliest overnight stop for me on the way up to Brisbane from Vicoria. Nice flat ground and a bit enough area for a larger vehicle. special signs reminding us to smile and the beautiful sacred godess tree to help guide the windy road ahead. they had fresh running water to refill very clean composting toilets and a shower. Even though us trucker just of the long open road were a bit dusty around the gills I think the purity and love we felt at the Yellow Butterfly meant we need not have a shower as we were cleansed and afresh after our peaceful nights stay.

Such a peaceful and private spot! Everything was clean, well set up, and surrounded by beautiful nature. The host was friendly but gave us total space, which made the stay even better. Perfect place to relax, disconnect, and just enjoy the quiet.

Weekend Trip to Petaurus Gardens

Petaurus Gardens was beautiful. The ammenities were clean and well maintained and Chris made sure we never ran out of firewood. Riding the bike on the trails right next to the camping site was great and kayaking was also very fun, since we got to see the wildlife. Although be careful of snakes, especially when dark, since we saw a venomous one. Overall a great experience I would recommend! Hope to come back soon.
