2 nights at Tuntable Creek Eco stay

It was cold winter days but we enjoyed fire and hot bath so much ! Thanks to a little heater inside and electric blanket, we could spend cosy nights. It was lovely and relaxing time in quiet forest. We have a little dog, we enjoyed a lot too. Recommend for a couple who want private gate way

1 night at Oakey Ridge

Great place. Went there recently. Sunrise is pretty amazing. Even the sunset as well.

2 nights at GingerNut Farm - Adults Only

We had a great time staying at Craig's property for a 9-night camping stay. Not especially experienced, and some pretty serious wet, windy and wintry weather prevailed. Still, we had an amazing time. The fellas were super welcoming, the property is beautiful, and the basic facilities provide much of what you need. In addition, there's a pile of stuff to enjoy at the farm, and in the surrounding community that the hosts are very well connected to. We had a rejuvenating and relaxing time at one with the natural surrounds. Would do again. Jason and Mark.

Weekend Trip to GingerNut Farm - Adults Only

Wonderful experience and extremely obliging and welcoming owners. Great forest walks with my dog and a sensational massage in the forest. Easy to locate and accessible in our motor home. Camp shower and portable toilets available on site. We chose to stay in the paddock section as it is fully fenced for our border collie dog. Would recommend and will definitely be back. Clothes optional was great for us and everyone on site made us feel very comfortable.

Weekend Trip to Oakey Ridge

We had a great time. It was very straightforward, easy to find and the host was very helpful.

3 nights at Oakey Ridge

My friends and I all had an awesome time camping, Greg is an amazing host and helped us out heaps. Couldn’t thank him enough and can’t recommend the place enough. We will be back very soon!

Weekend Trip to Oakey Ridge

Great place with loads of space for us. Cows were calling while there so we even got to name a few! Greg was easy to deal with and very accommodating. View was awesome and very peaceful.

Weekend Trip to Oakey Ridge

Greg’s property has many different areas for camping. We stayed at one of the quiet ones towards the edge and it was very enjoyable. The camp area had some visiting cows which enhanced the experience. You just need to choose the right spot for the weather as some are a bit hard to get in and out if wet and you are towing a caravan. However Greg is always on hand to assist if you get stuck. Would definitely go back.

4 nights at Lumeah By The Creek Near Waterfalls

A lovely campsite next to a babbling brook. Clean & insect free bathroom facilities and very helpful and responsive hosts. We had a great time as a family! It was great that we could camp right next to our family members who travelled down with us.

1 night at The Hidden Gem

Absolutely loved camping here and will be coming back in the future! Vili was so welcoming and knowledgeable. He gave us information on the land and its history and some of the national park walks. The campsite itself was so peaceful and had really good amenities. Recommend highly.

1 night at Oakey Ridge

Stayed in this campsite with mates, 8 of us in the group. Area is clean and you can have all the fun you want, it’s huge. Kitchen, toilet and bath is just nearby from where we are near the waterfalls. Greg was so friendly and hands on. Toured us to all of the sites in the area. He accommodated all of our request. 5 star for him. Campsite is really good for big groups as land is huge. We will be definitely be booking this campsite again in the future.

Weekend Trip to Everflow

Had a great night camping here! It was so serene listening to the creek flowing with the campfire going too. Cows were such an awesome bonus they are very friendly and chill. It did take a few goes to get the Jimny up the hill but it had just rained that morning. Jake was super friendly too..no faults!

Weekend Trip to Everflow

A well presented and maintained camp ground with a scenic drive to property would highly recommend any time of the year

Weekend Trip to Everflow

Very lovely campsite, beautiful creek and cute cows, they make a little bit of noise in the morning but doesn’t last long, they didn't come too close either just stayed a nice distance. Beautiful environment and only one other group of campers and there was lots of space between us, we each had our own view, couldn’t hear anyone.

Weekend Trip to The Hidden Gem

We had the absolute privilege of being one of the first to stay at Vili’s incredible property and wow- what a stay. The property is so tranquil and peaceful. Vili took us on a safari around his property where we saw breathtaking views, wildlife and the beautiful creek that you can swim or kayak in. This place has so many beautiful spots to explore and excellent facilities. We can’t wait to return!

Weekend Trip to The Hidden Gem

Such a peaceful spot! We absolutely loved our stay – the bubbling stream, peaceful surroundings, and crystal-clear night skies made it really special. At night, it was completely silent – you couldn’t hear a thing – just pure stillness under the stars. We even saw the Milky Way! At dusk, wallabies appeared in the grass, which was such a lovely sight. The hot showers were a welcome luxury, and the amenities were spotless. Our host was amazing – super friendly, welcoming, and helpful. A perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Everflow

How’s the serenity! Seriously beautiful part of the world. 1 night was not enough. Definitely need a 4 wd to access. Host very responsive to texts and gave clear instructions. Little town not far away. Ice cold crystal creek and curious cows checking out the camp site. Will be back for sure. We did not want to leave.

Weekend Trip to Tuntable Creek Eco stay

Beautiful stay, the surroundings are magical, the truck itself is so well thought out & the attention to detail made us feel like we were in a mini hotel room! The outdoor bath is spectacular, even in the cold cold winter mornings that hot bath felt otherworldly ✨ (the shower is phenomenal too) The bed was warm (electric blanket helped) & even the extra bed downstairs was comfortable. (I ended up down there the second night as I’m 33 weeks pregnant & kept having to get up to use the loo, it’s a bit of a hike up to the top bed otherwise) The fire pit was great, we used the pizza oven too to cook which was a lovely touch! We didn’t have a pen to write in your guest book so can only apologise there’s no review in there. Overall it was a wonderful stay for our baby moon 🌙 Thank you Felicity for allowing us into your space!

You'll find three enchanting ones within just 500 meters of the property, showing off their beauty from various vantage points. Plus, the iconic Minyon Falls is only a short 10-minute drive away. Guests have access to a charming small settlers cottage, which includes a cozy lounge area, a convenient kitchenette, and a warming fireplace – perfect for those cooler evenings.

Dungarubba Fields

5 sites · RVs, Tents6 acres · Dungarubba, NSW

Thankyou for considering Dungarubba Fields. We offer you a well located and secure camp-site to explore the North Coast or for that overnight stay while you are travelling to your destination and need a safe place to camp. Our four campsites are spacious and are freshly mown flat grassed sites. Each campsite has 1 or 2 stone circles for campfires, with free kindling and free firewood supplied to all campsites. Whether you are a single traveller, a couple, family or group booking we have the campsite for you. We are family friendly and dog friendly. Dungarubba Fields is a private, rural setting on six acres on Bundjalung country. Four of our camp sites are situated across a small bridge in the back paddock, and one camp site is situated just before the bridge for those self driving campervans with a wider wheel-base. The paddock was once cleared and in recent years we have planted and cared for over 100 new Koala and rainforest trees. After the Northern Rivers floods of 2022 we are now continuing the bush regeneration beside the Dungarubba wetland which borders our property. Our camp-sites offer shade, space, wildlife and birdlife. Campfires are allowed 12 months a year depending on fire ratings and local conditions except on days of Total Fire Ban and the preceding evening going into a Total Fire Ban. We supply the free firewood to each campsite as we understand how important the campfire is to the camping experience. Outside the fire season we can supply a readymade Bonfire at an additional cost to your booking. Hipcampers can access fresh drinking water (rainwater) from our rainwater tanks, with an accessible tap near our home. Hipcampers have access to a downstairs flushing toilet at the house. We offer a Portaloo for larger group bookings situated beside your camp site as an optional extra for an additional cost. The Portaloo needs to be booked when you make your booking. The house on the property was originally built in 1903 as the Catholic Church of the nearby locality Riley's Hill. In the 1940’s it was moved to the current site after low attendance by parishioners who didn’t want to have to row across the Richmond River and get their feet wet to attend Mass. The church sold the building in the 1980’s and it was raised off the ground with two new wings attached on either side to become a private residence. The sugar cane and soybeans, however more surrounding land is being planted to Macadamia nuts which will change the look of the landscape in future. During May to November of an evening, you can look out for the occasional cane fire which is a historic part of the harvesting of sugar. The Richmond River and boat ramp is a short 2 minutes drive for both fishing and water skiing. The Broadwater National Park with sand-dunes and a fishing beach is only a 10 minute drive away. The Pacific Highway is 7 minutes drive away. The beautiful coastal village of Evans Head with shops, a medical clinic and a patrolled beach is just a 15 minutes drive. The nearest townships are Broadwater (2 fuel stations and a pub under new management), Coraki (junction of 2 rivers), Woodburn (pub with a bistro and a laundrette) and Evans Head (a township with most services). We are a 45 minutes drive to Byron Bay and 25 minutes to the coastal city of Ballina up the Pacific Highway or 25 minutes drive inland to the city of Lismore. We welcome friendly dogs and there is plenty of space for them to run around and chase balls or other dogs. Our dog Stella is a 4 year old Blue Heeler, who greets people from the balcony barking as you drive in. Don’t let the barking fool you as she loves visitors and their dogs. We expect owners to be responsible for their dogs and in particularly when there are Koalas close by. We ask dogs not to roam at night as Koalas are nocturnal (and so are other critters) and night-time is when they choose their food tree for the next day and roam around. We are in Core Koala Habitat and love our koalas, we hope you do too. We look forward to hosting you and in creating a sensational camping experience for you. Lise and Pete Dungarubba Fields.
