Our property contains the first road in and out of Colo - the original road is supported by hand built dry rock walls some of which are over 3 m high. Often referred to as convict built, but more likely built by freemen who were former convicts.
The property housed the load master's residence who controlled the cargo boats that docked to collect the valley’s produce. This was then transported back down the Colo River which flows into the Hawkesbury river and leads to Broken Bay following the coastline down to Old Sydney Town. The beach diagonally across the river was landed upon by members of the First Fleet’s exploratory scouting party on the lookout for quality farm land - some of which is still in production today.
Our property is on the uppermost reach of freshwater but with tidal influence. This deep water allows swimming and canoeing all year round. Our property is adjacent to the only council built canoe launching facilities on the Colo River.

Our property contains the first road in and out of Colo - the original road is supported by hand built dry rock walls some of which are over 3 m high. Often referred to as convict built, but more likely built by freemen who were former convicts.
The property housed the load master's residence who controlled the cargo boats that docked to collect the valley’s produce. This was then transported back down the Colo River which flows into the Hawkesbury river and leads to Broken Bay following the coastline down to Old Sydney Town. The beach diagonally across the river was landed upon by members of the First Fleet’s exploratory scouting party on the lookout for quality farm land - some of which is still in production today.
Our property is on the uppermost reach of freshwater but with tidal influence. This deep water allows swimming and canoeing all year round. Our property is adjacent to the only council built canoe launching facilities on the Colo River.

What a gorgeous place to stay.
I was warmly greeted by Lambert who gave a run down of the amenities and local info. Rained the whole evening, it was bliss to fall asleep to rain over the paddocks and rolling meadows.
Thank you Lambert and Deborah for a gorgeous introduction to Hipcamp-ing!

This is a fantastic space, a little piece of paradise. We had a great time, facilities could not have been better and the owners are very welcoming, helpful and friendly. Couldn't recommend this space more, they've got everything you need. The undercover area was perfect. Great for dogs and groups wanting a private space. Camping with added luxuries.

Overall, the experience was great. John, the owner, was very accommodating and thoughtful—he even checked in to see how we were doing. He kindly lent me his toolkit to fix my broken tent, which I really appreciated.
The only downside was that there was just one toilet. Thankfully, there weren’t too many of us, so it wasn’t a major issue.

Lucinda responded quickly to all enquiries. Lovely little bush camp for people with dogs. Fire pit was lovely and very clean compost toilets. So accessible to the little river and the lovely aqua pool. Certainly more expensive than most of the NSW parks but we haven’t used hip camp before.

Very nice Area! Lots of Wildlife and the journey to the little River was fun and a medium hike level. Our puppies absolutely loved it there and like to swim and run around. Very spacious areas so campers are not on top of each other.
Communication between myself and Luvina was easy and clear. Would definitely recommended and would love to stay again.

It is such a hidden gem! The setting is peaceful and perfect for relaxing, with plenty of space to set up camp and enjoy nature. Steve, who helped us during our stay, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He even treated us to some of his amazing brownies, which were an absolute highlight. Definitely a place to unwind and enjoy great hospitality!

A great spot close to Sydney but feels a million miles away from the busyness.
The river was a perfect height and strength for the kids to paddle and play all day.
The toilets and showers were really good for the location, fire pits were well positioned and the communication from Yara was really helpful and accurate.
We’ll certainly be back.

We loved our stay at Wedderburn Hideaway. Robert is a fantastic, friendly host and his 3 friendly dogs were a pleasure to have around. He has everything you could ask for on site! We will be sure to return soon.

Amazing location and facilities. Yara made us feel right at home. We loved camping so close to the river and as it was a bit cooler, made full use of the fire pit and firewood. The bathroom facilities were fantastic and although we visited on a quiet weekend, we got the impression that even when booked out, you’d never feel crowded or cramped.
Will definitely visit again!
