Calderwood, NSW · 11 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Nestled right up against the escarpment at an elevation of 450m, this high-end, off-grid 40 acre property effectively offers your own private slice of Macquarie Pass National Park - amazing views, giant cedar trees, fern forests, cascading waterfalls and palms surround.
It feels remote but it's only 90 min from Sydney, 30 min to Kiama and just 15 min to the shops. The property also offers the only hiking path up to the top of the escarpment for some truly amazing views.
As of September 2025, many of the trails on the property have been degraded by the rains and are now challenging for 2WD cars. If you're towing or it's wet we recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles.
Since this is coastal rainforest and it has been very wet, expect leeches anywhere it is damp. These are easily kept at bay with deet and or trousers tucked into socks.
We're not particularly price sensitive - until all those rate rises - but we are extremely value sensitive so we set out to make your stay extremely good value for your hard earned money. The land itself does most of the heavy lifting but also personal service and of course there's Lana to fall in love with.
Note, Mellows Rd is 2.6km long and rises 400m - in parts the road is a 15 degree grade. It's all paved but narrow so if you are towing a large heavy load, it's going to strain your car.

Welcome to Our Cane & Cattle Farm on the Clarence River
Step onto our four‑generation working cane and cattle farm, where the smell of fresh‑cut cane, the hum of farm life, and the shimmer of the Clarence River set the tone for your stay. Your adventure begins at the entrance, marked by “Rusty,” our old sugarcane harvester — a true piece of local history and a favourite photo stop.
The winding driveway leads you through the paddocks, past different cane varieties and grazing horses and cattle. The front horse paddock will soon become our upgraded camp kitchen and guest area, and we’re excited to keep improving the space while staying true to the farm’s heritage.
Life on the Farm
Days here follow the rhythm of the land and the river. Wander through the cane, taste sweet juice straight from the stalk, and see how sugarcane is grown and harvested. Enjoy bike riding, walking trails, quiet fishing spots, and kayaking or canoeing straight from the property. The Ashby Creek swimming hole offers a calm, sheltered place for a refreshing dip.
Life on the River
This part of the Clarence is famous for water skiing, boating, and long, glassy stretches perfect for exploring. The fishing here is excellent, with calm water and plenty of great spots right from the property. We often boat across to Maclean for supplies, giving guests a real taste of river life.
The sunsets here are something else — short, stunning bursts of colour that light up the whole river and paddocks. As the sun drops, the sky turns gold, pink, and deep orange, and the Clarence reflects it all like glass. It’s a quiet, peaceful moment where everything slows down and the whole farm glows.
Exploring the Clarence Valley
There’s plenty to do nearby — enjoy a meal at the Harwood Hotel, stop for morning tea on Chatsworth Island, or join in local favourites like the Maclean Cane Harvest Festival, Maclean Highland Gathering, Yamba, Iluka and Brooms head famous beaches and the Grafton Races. The Clarence Valley is full of character, history, and country charm.
This is a place for people who love the outdoors, appreciate real farm life, and want a mix of adventure and tranquillity. Whether you’re here to fish, explore, learn, or simply breathe out, the farm gives you a genuine Northern Rivers experience.

For us, this was a near perfect experience.
We are not experienced campers and don't typically do camping getaways, but we wanted to do something outdoors with our 5 and 9 year old sons. We went with the big tent accommodation option and it was perfect. The site is self-contained enough that you don't need to worry about cooking, toilet or shower facilities, but remote enough that modern conveniences and entertainment (TVs, computers, phones etc) were not an option.
There are loads of places to explore and climb, or you can chill out, swim, and rest. We visited in mid September, so the days were warm and the nights were cool - perfect for day activities and getting fires going at night.
The only minor thing we would do differently next time is to bring a full size four wheel drive or more rugged SUV. Our SUV was probably okay, but having no off road driving experience, we were a bit nervous. But if you are steady, it is manageable.
Really happy with the adventure.

This was our third stay at Rocky River Glamp Tent, and it just keeps getting better every time! We visited with our two children and our dog, and there was something for everyone to enjoy. We explored new places, had picnics, went fishing, used our stand-up paddleboard and enjoyed some beautiful hikes.
Kristy and Dan are wonderful hosts who always make us feel welcome and well looked after. The property is kept in excellent condition, and each time we return, we can clearly see how much hard work and care they have put into improving it.
Some friends joined us for one of the weekends, and everything went smoothly with no issues at all. It’s a fantastic place for families, friends and pets to relax, explore and enjoy the outdoors.
We always leave looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!

This was the best camping spot I've ever been. The views were stunning the sauna was perfect, especially as we went on a rainy day so it was a perfect way to warm up while looking out the windows to the mist moving over the valley. The outdoor shower was nice and hot and came with a spectacular view. We didn't expect to have so much available for use like the kitchen, cooking area, BBQ and fridge, they've also installed a water filter for drinking. On arrival we met Ron who was so welcoming and helpful. We stayed in the bell tent closest to the outdoor bath and sauna and the mattress was like sleeping on a cloud so comfortable and spacious.
I brought my dog along and she loved all the walking trails around the property. Even the drive up the driveway was beautiful! We had such a great experience and will definitely be back again!
Thank you!!

The "Cove" site was amazing.
The sound of the running rapids was the highlight and the proximity to the non flushing toilet was a bonus.
We had a large group so the extras stayed at the North Runway which was great to be close but not on top of one another.
The birdlife was another highlight, the cows, the goannas, were amazing to see too.
The road down (4WD) only was easy and fun!

Yet again this place did not disappoint!! Tiny house accommodation was A1 as usual, the views spectacular and having a visit from Kristy to top it all off. You guys are always so accommodating and it was great to have a chat. Leaving on Sunday morning is always hard and this time our furbabies were very somber too.....we will return to this beautiful location again and again!!!

We really enjoyed our stay in the Luxury Glamping tent at Ballina Beach Nature Resort. 🤎⛺️🐾
The tent was spacious, comfortable and such a nice change from our usual camping setup. We loved the four-poster bed, having our own bathroom and kitchen facilities, and being able to relax with the dogs nearby.
It was peaceful, dog-friendly and a lovely spot to slow down. We especially enjoyed sitting outside, having a campfire and being close to the beach.
Everything was easy from check-in through to our stay, and we’d happily stay again. A beautiful little glamping option if you still want that outdoor feel with a few extra comforts. 🐾🤎

Great host - checked in and flexible - Caravan was clean and tidy and more decked out than I expected inside. We forgot camp chairs - so remember to bring those! Magic walks up the ridge across the road on the farm - highly recommend for some incredible views.

Allan's Place was perfectly cozy, gorgeously decorated and very well equipped. The balcony made the space feel even larger, allowing for wonderful outdoor living. Access to a private outdoor shower with hot water and a short walk to shared toilets on the property. The grounds are beautifully kept and perfect for exploring. Pets are welcomed are are sure to love OKA!
Kellie and Rod are wonderful hosts and are happy to help with any questions you have during your stay. I highly recommend Allan's Place to any single or couple wanting a peaceful, relaxing retreat!

2 nights at Windmill Creek Camp
Had the most peaceful, beautiful stay here at Windmill Creek. Went for a lovely dip in the creek, walked up to the dam and there’s a hilltop view on Bob’s property that’s breathtaking. Would 100% recommend, I stayed in the caravan and it was super cozy, clean and comfortable!
Wish I had more time here 10/10.
