If you're looking for somewhere quiet and secluded that welcomes dogs, you'll love Diamond Park Campsite.
Situated in beautiful Diamond Beach and backing on to the national park, this property offers two beautiful campsites suitable for tents, caravans, and campervans. Both sites are fenced so your dogs can be off-leash while inside the campsite (on-leash at all other times). Bush walk, bird watch or bring your kayak to paddle in the dam. You’ll feel like you’re miles away from it all, but it’s only a few minutes’ drive to dog-friendly beaches (Diamond Beach and Black Head Beach), cafes, a pub and a supermarket.
Each site has a fire pit and free firewood is supplied. There’s also a paved undercover area with a rainwater tank and a table and chairs to seat 6-8 people comfortably.
We’ve got you covered with the creature comforts: an amenities building including 1 hot shower, 1 flushing toilet, sink, washing machine and power points for charging your phone.
You’re welcome to stroll through the property, where you’ll see fallow deer, sheep, wallabies, and a variety of bird life.
We love welcoming groups of family and friends to enjoy catching up in nature, and we pride ourselves on offering a relaxed, friendly experience. But if you’re looking to party, Diamond Park Campsite is not for you.
We host a maximum of 20 guests on the property. During peak season (October - March) and long weekends we may allow both sites to be booked at once if the initial booking is for a small group (4 people or less). Both sites are secluded. Feel free to send us a message if you'd like to discuss your needs.

- If you have solar panels to charge you might have to chase the sun a little, as there are plenty of shaded areas which is perfect come summer.

If you're looking for somewhere quiet and secluded that welcomes dogs, you'll love Diamond Park Campsite.
Situated in beautiful Diamond Beach and backing on to the national park, this property offers two beautiful campsites suitable for tents, caravans, and campervans. Both sites are fenced so your dogs can be off-leash while inside the campsite (on-leash at all other times). Bush walk, bird watch or bring your kayak to paddle in the dam. You’ll feel like you’re miles away from it all, but it’s only a few minutes’ drive to dog-friendly beaches (Diamond Beach and Black Head Beach), cafes, a pub and a supermarket.
Each site has a fire pit and free firewood is supplied. There’s also a paved undercover area with a rainwater tank and a table and chairs to seat 6-8 people comfortably.
We’ve got you covered with the creature comforts: an amenities building including 1 hot shower, 1 flushing toilet, sink, washing machine and power points for charging your phone.
You’re welcome to stroll through the property, where you’ll see fallow deer, sheep, wallabies, and a variety of bird life.
We love welcoming groups of family and friends to enjoy catching up in nature, and we pride ourselves on offering a relaxed, friendly experience. But if you’re looking to party, Diamond Park Campsite is not for you.
We host a maximum of 20 guests on the property. During peak season (October - March) and long weekends we may allow both sites to be booked at once if the initial booking is for a small group (4 people or less). Both sites are secluded. Feel free to send us a message if you'd like to discuss your needs.

** UNFORTUNATELY WE DO NOT TAKE ANY CARAVANS .. HYBRID CARAVANS .. MOTOR HOMES .. RV'S .. FIFTH WHEELER's .. BUSES INCLUDING MERCEDES SPRINTERS of any size .. mainly the footprint of these types of vehicles is far too great .. once again we're only a grassy paddock not a caravan park.

- If you have solar panels to charge you might have to chase the sun a little, as there are plenty of shaded areas which is perfect come summer.
We do not allow the use of "Slackline or Tightropes" strung between our trees, it causes them to be ringbarked after a prolonged use .. meaning they die in the long run .. rope clotheslines and hamocks perfectly ok on the palms, sheoaks and paperbarks!!
- Dogs are permitted here however they must be friendly off leash and must NOT chase my pets which include horses, goats , dogs and our pet chooks.

Stay in the small coastal town of North Haven, where you will be a short 5 minute drive from North Haven Beach, or a 5 minute walk to Camden Haven River. There is plenty of space in the paddocks, with a choice of open grasslands and shaded areas with trees.
You will need to be fully self-contained with own camping toilet/shower and water supply. Cut firewood for sale or you can gather your own.
Your dog is welcome but must be kept on a lead at all times and in your control.
Please ensure you get in touch before with a phone call or text with your ETA for arrival so we can meet you at the gate. Please note camping allowed only in paddocks as the rest of the farm is off-limits.
Good access for 2WD, caravans & large vehicles.
We look forward to welcoming you soon!

Glorious views in all directions atop the hill at Herring Estate. Manicured property with shade if you need it. Sunrise over the slither of ocean visible to the east was worth the early morning rise. Old Bar Beach and the Saltwater National Park 15 minutes away. Don’t leave without a jar of local honey! To be repeated.

A quick one night stay but perfect location by the river for a tent. Ann was very welcoming and communicative. Perfect distance between Sydney and Brisbane and quick detour off the motorway. Will definitely stay again!
Thanks Anne ☀️

Richard and Roslyn’s Riverside Farm Escape is one of our favourite Hipcamps.
The sites are clearly marked, really well maintained, and the grass was mint. There’s heaps for the kids to do — a small soccer pitch, canoeing on the river and the lily dam, plus clean toilets and showers.
Fishing down on the river was lively as well. If you’re travelling with kids, they’ll be well and truly entertained.
This will definitely be our go-to stop when heading past.

We had a wonderful overnight stop travelling between Sydney and Brisbane.
We had a peaceful, private spot with plenty of space to spread out and relax. The property was easy to find, safe and offered great views of the river. Facilities were clean and well looked after, and everything was exactly as described in the listing, which made arrival and set-up simple. Our host was welcoming, responsive to messages, and gave clear directions. We would happily stay again and recommend this spot to anyone looking for an easy, no-fuss break between Sydney and Brisbane.

We had a great time. Site 11 was very shaded, right next to the river. We have caravans and getting out was not straight forward. Tight to turn around and a steep and twisting track out.
This is a lovely property and hosts were great.

Love Bluey’s beach. Jodie’s place is amazing. Great location not far from shops and the beach. Hot shower, cold shower & toilets are cleaner than some motels & hotels! Bins nearby also. Jodie’s a great host too & always maintaining the property. Can’t wait to come back to Strawberry’s Paddock!

This was a great riverside campsite with plenty of space. With only four campsites, it felt very private, which was lovely. The directions were a little confusing at first, but once we found the site, it was worth it.

I can’t recommend this accommodation enough.
From the easy process of finding the campsite to the Lily pond to friendly staff this farm welcome on their land. The beautiful views of the wildlife were to die for.

Honestly what’s not to love, the camp ground itself was beautiful and the animals were gorgeous. There are so many activities available I wish we spent longer! From the Kayaks, to the pedal boat, to the water trampoline (also a great spot to lay and watch the stars)
We rocked up on one of the hottest days this year and the owners drove around and shared some zooper doopers and had a chat, a very serene and welcoming stay our little group will definitely be back again!

Our second stay at Hamilton's Hideaway was just as good as our first. Great spot on the river and really close into town. Loved crowdy bay for a swim and the Coopy for a feed.

We loved Paul’s land, backed onto the river which we paddleboarded to the bridge from the jetty about a kilometre away, plenty of room to move and privacy, has fire pits if you don’t have your own and Paul is an excellent and friendly host and very accomodating and gave us a late checkout

I loved camping at Bertha campsite. Lovely rolling hills and grass. Had a splendid view of the alpacas and close encounters with the thorough bred horses. The host Anna and Maya were very patient with the kids and taught them how to feed the farm animals.
Very family friendly and quiet secluded camping site.
