We absolutely love Kellie and Rod's Our Kindred Acre - it truly is beautiful. The greatest spot to unwind, unplug and just enjoy fresh air. Kellie, Rod and Ruby were so welcoming and kind. We'll definitely be back!

We had the most beautiful stay at Our Kindred Acres with our toddler and baby.
Absolutely beautiful property, very well maintained, with gorgeous little dams and a great big communal kitchen and shelter with everything you need, including toys and games for the kids.
Kellie and Rod were incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Such a peaceful, family friendly escape. We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

What an incredible few days we had camping at OKA, and we can't wait to return! Kellie and Rod were fantastic hosts, always quick to reply to any questions and personally greeted us on arrival to show us to our site and around the facilities, which are extensive and impressive. We travelled with our 3 young children and 2 fur babies, and what a perfect way to ease into camping life for our kids' first weekend away in the wilderness. The property itself is private, peaceful and full of charm with much to explore. The onsite facilities such as toilets, showers, shaded gardens and sitting areas, as well as the incredible bonfire and communal camp kitchen were second to none. The eye for detail is exceptional, with every possible need considered and covered, from books and boardgames available, cosy couch nooks, rustic dining areas, a BBQ and a fully stocked kitchen. Rod even kindly lent us a campfire cookstand and gloves so we could prepare meals over our campfire. Kellie and Rod have created something truly special here - not just a campsite but a beautiful little community, and it is an absolute labour of love which exceeded our expectations in every way. The property is so picturesque, the birdlife is next level and the kids absolutely loved playing with Ruby the cattle dog and throwing sticks for her, as much as Ruby enjoyed fetching them! Thank you so much for being such amazing hosts and sharing your little patch of paradise with us. We hope to see you again soon!

We loved Kellie’s place, lots of space, flat grass, beautiful trees, and an incredible converted barn with a full kitchen, bbq, kids toys, couches, and everything you could need. The campsite and bookable accommodation is kind of focused around this central meeting place and it really encourages campers and guests to connect and have a shared experience if they would like, or keep to themselves if preferred, the place is big enough for that too. This was very unique for us compared with other hipcamps we’ve been to, and our 6 year old absolutely loved it (especially feeding the chooks with the caretakers kids living on site). Kellie and Rod are just the loveliest people and there was a generosity and care imbued in every part of OKA, and Kellie’s creativity expressed throughout as well through so many novel features. They’ve really created a beautiful space for people to relax and have fun.

We really loved this site, it’s a beautiful and relaxing spot. The hosts have done a great job making the site a welcoming and enjoyable place to be. Great facilities with the big communal shed, amenities were clean and well presented. We loved having a bush shower.
Ruby the host dog was great company, very playful and a good natured girl. We will hopefully be able to stay again sometime.

Easily one of the best camping spots we've stayed at. The location is perfect—peaceful, well-maintained, and surrounded by incredible scenery. 🇦🇺✌️🏻🫡🦘. A massive thank you to Trevor and Maya for their incredible kindness and hospitality! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel right at home. It’s rare to find hosts who go so far out of their way to ensure their guests have a great stay. They truly made our trip one to remember!"

Only stayed one night but the campsite is amazing. Loads of stars if you have a clear night. So much room you feel like you're camping in your own.

Lovely spot to base yourself. A lot of space between sites and everyone gets a fire pit. There is plenty of portaloos but no potable water easily accessed but Trevor will help!
Trevor is a lovely guy and really wanted to ensure that my son and I had a great time. Checked in but never intruding and made us feel very welcome. His shows were also greatly appreciated and fun.

Trevor's property is a hidden oasis nestled amongst the beautiful forest of the Myall lakes National Park. Whilst we were there, we saw wallabies and kookaburras, but it was a busy time so believe you would see a lot more creatures if it was not so busy. Now don't get me started about the glorious night skies.
Even though the camp was at capacity Trevor makes sure that all camps are well spaced out so no one is close to each other. The facilities were cleaned and maintained daily and great efforts were made by both Maya and Trevor to makes sure that all campers were comfortable and enjoying their stay.
Trevor and Maya were amazing hosts and the two shows that Trevor put on for the campers were amazing, he is such a talented man both his "Wisdom of the Horses" demonstration and the "Confessions of a Folksinger" that completely blew us away.
I highly recommend this site for a nice little get away.
