3 nights at Figtree Farm at Findon Creek

Honestly don’t even want to leave a review because I’d rather keep this place a secret! But it deserves it — and it’s only going to get more popular as they keep improving it. We had an amazing stay here. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help us. Communication was clear and easy from start to finish, and the directions and access were spot on. The property itself is stunning — a gorgeous part of the world, private and peaceful. Each site is secluded and spread out; you wouldn’t even know there were other people around. It did rain a lot during our stay (not their fault, of course!) and access definitely required a 4x4. But the hosts went absolutely above and beyond to help — even spending over an hour with the tractor making sure we could get up the hill safely with our van. We felt really looked after. Facilities were great — the toilet and shower were basic but totally usable, and it was awesome having river access nearby. Our dogs loved it too — both on and off-leash depending on where we were. Bug and mosquito levels were really low, even after heavy rain, which was a nice surprise! Overall, can’t wait to get back. Between the location, the setup, and the next round of improvements on the way, this place is a gem.

Weekend Trip to Amorata Eco Farm

We were unlucky to arrive when it was raining so we couldn’t get a real feel for the property. As it rained all night we decided to leave early and not have our 2nd night there as we couldn’t light the fire and the leeches were biting us and our dog so we thought it best to revisit Stuart’s property another time when we can make full use of it all. We will be back 👍

Absolutely loved it at Jaya's camp. Beautiful creek, wide open space to camp in and so peaceful. Thank you so much for letting us camp here, will definitely be back.

1 night at RESET Tallebudgera Valley

The dome was absolutely perfect! Felt luxurious with everything you’ll need, but also feels like you are a part of nature with full view of the trees and sounds of the creek at your doorstep. Hosts were lovely and easy going. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone, even for GC locals as a little staycation as you feel a million miles away from the coast. We will hopefully be back one day ourselves.

4 nights at Petaurus Gardens

Great campsite and great hosts. The best camp shower and toilet I have experienced and the raised deck for our tent kept us out of the mud and moisture. We didn’t meet Dianne but her family were very accommodating, providing mozzie zappers and citronella lanterns to place around the site and extra firewood. Being there after a big wet, the mozzies and pot holes along the dirt access road made it a little challenging but being prepared for this would make all the difference. It was also a bit further out from Evan’s head/Yamba etc. than the listing described. Thank you guys for a great camp, if we’re up in Northern NSW again we will be back!

Weekend Trip to Amorata Eco Farm

A fantastic place to slow down and relax - just far enough from the rest of the world for some peace and quiet, while close enough to have anything you could possibly need within reach. We were relieved to hear that the tiny home was accessible with a sedan, and charmed by how cozy the cabin was - the addition of the sauna and pool tying it all together for a stay to come back for. Of course, none of this would have been possible without Stu, who was a wonderful host and warm, friendly person.

Weekend Trip to GingerNut Farm - Adults Only

We broke down 10km for the site and had to have van towed, Craig, Greg & Andy were fantastic in allowing us to glamp in one of their tents, whilst providing impeccable hostage, care, comfort, consideration in ensuring we were looked after not only by them, but the other campers. All contributed to ensuring our stay was easy and memorable- we will be back soon!

We had such a lovely stay at this camp site the setting was peaceful and beautiful. The facilities were great even had hot water and the tents were amazing. The host really made it stand out. We had a run of bad luck with our car, and he went absolutely above and beyond to help us out. From offering advice to physically helping us sort things out, he was incredibly kind and generous with his time. Highly recommend staying here, not just for the gorgeous setup and great facilities but for the amazing hospitality. Thank you again!

Weekend Trip to Petaurus Gardens

Booked two of the glamping tents to camp with a friend and our kids. Host was very helpful and attentive, setting us up with a fire and free insect repellent. This place was more established than I expected. Didn't get a chance to do any of the activities (kayaking, mountain biking etc) but had a really great time nonetheless. Great price as well 😊

1 night at Petaurus Gardens

We only stayed for a quick overnight stop on our way north, but looked like a great little spot to stay a little longer and explore the property. The tent platform proved amazing as unfortunately we couldn't choose the weather. Hosts were very friendly and super accommodating!

We had a great time. Definitely what we needed for a relaxing and rejuvenating few days away. We loved we were camping but with everything supplied. Absolutely beautiful spot and the horses and donkeys were a nice extra. Friendly host and everything was really smooth. Definitely recommend for a couples retreat away and we will be back xx

2 nights at GingerNut Farm - Adults Only

We stayed in the studio - a room with external access in the hosts' residence. Facilities are basic and rustic but enough for us to easily be comfortable. We enjoyed sharing space with Craig and Greg (Andy was away). They were very hospitable and kept us well supplied with tea, coffee and good conversation about so many topics. One evening, we were taken on a short walk to see glow worms and bioluminescent fungi - both dependent on suitable conditions. The property is large enough to take a good bushwalk along a meandering trail cut through the rainforest, providing lots of interesting opportunities to spot fascinating wildlife and flora. We'd love to return some time. We appreciated the hosts' welcoming, non-judgemental and relaxed hospitality.

Weekend Trip to Petaurus Gardens

This place was awesome! Amenities were fantastic and the platform to camp on was an absolute life saver given it rained every night. The hosts were very generous and had some spare Mozzie coils and zappers for us to borrow which was greatly appreciated. Bring your gumboots and bug spray! We would happily come back here.

4 nights at Figtree Farm at Findon Creek

This place was so peaceful and just what we needed to unwind. We explored Kyogle and found great food in woodenbong. Relaxed and enjoyed the scenery. JB was lovely and welcoming and made sure we could always reach out for anything. It was a perfect place for the pups too! THANKS - will be back.

Such a wonderful location and the accommodation was very comfortable. Listening to the creek while sleeping and the donkey calls made you feel one with nature. Camp has everything you need to get by and we will definitely be back for another stay.

Weekend Trip to Figtree Farm at Findon Creek

We loved how spacious and secluded Jaya site was and having creek access from the site is definitely a plus point. Our pooch had a great time as she had heaps of space to run around. Jane is a very thoughtful host, she provided us helpful information prior to checking in. We would definitely visit again.

We all fell in love with the magnificent camphor laurel tree growing at the edge of the seasonal creek. We all found ourselves drawn to that place, so with the help of our friends and our children we began the project of manifesting a dream into a reality - the dream of living in the tree canopy. As we worked on the Treehouse, the design was constantly changing. The whole family, especially our youngest son, contributed to the manifestation of the dream. During that time we overcame many obstacles and found solutions to build in the tree. It was an adventure, a lot of fun and we learnt a lot. It became a dwelling for our kids for a period of time, until they grew up and left to conquer the big wide world. Now it is here for you to enjoy, to reconnect with your dreams, to dive deep into your childhood playful memories where the world of fantasy and reality merge together.

Experience Figtree Farm at Findon Creek, a 600-acre natural oasis. Tucked away in a tranquil, secluded valley, this hidden gem is surrounded by Long Creek to the south and Findon Creek to the west, while the northern edge extends to the breathtaking Border Ranges National Park. On Gullibal land, Figtree Farm provides captivating vistas of Jalgumbin (Mt Lindesay) to the west and Lever's Plateau, a designated wilderness area of unlogged subtropical rainforest, to the north. This much-loved family-owned farm has a rich history, transitioning from a dairy farm to a beef property. Today, it flourishes with a bio-diverse planting of native trees and a bespoke joinery workshop crafting designer furniture. While Figtree Farm has been a camping destination for family and friends for many years and now we're happy to extend this welcome to Hipcampers too. As a starting point for this new venture at Findon Creek we offer 3 sites which are all suitable for larger groups; all situated on grassy open spaces beside the creek. In wet conditions you will need a 4WD to access these sites, though the flats themselves are not boggy. Explore the great outdoors by wandering along our extensive bush tracks and trying your hand at fishing in our farm dam stocked with silver perch. Figtree Farm has an abundance of bird and animal life. Here, tranquillity reigns, save for the occasional serenade of our friendly neighbourhood donkeys and the odd rooster. If you wish to wander further afield, Kyogle is a 30 minute drive away. And there is an all weather tennis court (with lights) nearby at Bundgeam Hall. Figtree Farm at Findon Creek promises opportunities for contemplation, relaxation and fun and it is our wish that you will have many happy memories of your visit here.
