The Blue Mountains might be famous for clean, mountain air, but in its foothills, it’s also famous for fun, when you check into Ingenia Holidays Nepean River.
Backing onto the Nepean River, the park has accommodation options to suit every format of traveller with both families, couples and sporting enthusiasts making tracks to its Emu Plains location.
With a menu of cabins that range from 2 to 12 guests and cottages, camping and caravan sites in between, there’s plenty of space to settle into holiday-mode at Ingenia Holidays Nepean River.
Sure you could cook in your cabin or the camp kitchen and BBQ facilities onsite, but most choose to explore the Nepean River setting and wander to O’Donoghues Irish Pub, Nutrition Station or the Nepean Rowing Club, all nearby, for a bite to eat.
When you’re not exploring the onsite swimming pool or playground, outdoor-lovers should take note – you’re staying dangerously close to Cables Wake Park Penrith for a fun-filled family day out.
For something at slower speed, the Nepean River calls for fishing with the chance of reeling in your catch for dinner tonight.

Great spot. Panoramic views being so high up on the mountain were the best. Cows were no issue and were great company. Previous reviews mentioned grass was long but the cows didn’t stop eating all day so they were not long. Of course there was cow poo here and there which would be expected but caused no issue or any smell. Saw a family of kangaroos playing for hours down the hill. Weather was great and appreciated the nice breeze. Nights were surprisingly cool for summer but with lots of wood from trees kept us warm. We would have no issue returning as the tranquility was just what the Dr ordered. Thanks Anthony for sharing your little piece of tranquility.

Nice enough spot with a decent outlook on a clear day you can see the city if you walk to the right of the paddock and look out between the two trees.
The site is open and fairly quiet. The cows come over for a quick look when you arrive, then wander off.
Access is through a gate with a code lock, so you’ll need to call Anthony for the code before arriving. There’s also a sign on the fence saying “No Trespassing / Private Property,” which was a bit confusing at first.
Firewood is listed as provided and there is plenty of dead wood around to collect. Overall, an okay spot if you know what to expect.

A nice area especially if like me busy cannot get too far Sydney, it is a calm place, having only two sites gave me the relax time. Anthonny was responsive and he's put a generous amount of firewood kept us warm for many hours. Like this place, I think I would probably go to the same place next time. Thank you!

Location great, 30mins to Penrith, 1hr 15 to blue mountains, no cows on property currently so no cow pats as mentioned by previous campers but grass is knee high as a result, Anthony was kind enough to bring us up some more firewood

What a cracking spot!!! The view is to die for, it was a pleasure staying, we had an amazing time, especially with the dogs being able to run freely at the site. Anthony was a wonderful host. Very accommodating and was all to happy to help us if needed. I couldn’t recommend Anthony and this site enough. We will definitely keep it in mind for our next trip away!

Very tranquil. Lots of space to walk around and for the dog and kids to run. Beautiful views, yet disappointed that there were no cows, as shown in the photos. The kids and I were really excited to stay on a property with cows present, but it looks like they've been gone a long time. This should be mentioned.

Lovely environment and easy to find. The check in was good for us when we didn’t arrive in the office hours. I think email information on out of hours check in could be provided but other than that everything was great.
Good facilities and clean too
