The back of the property is perfect for camping and suitable for a small to medium caravan/camper. The larger dam has a picnic area and kayaks available to paddle on.

Hooks, fishing lines and traps are not allowed as we have people, dogs and horses swimming in the dams. We welcome self-contained campers who bring their shower/toilet set up. We do have two drop pit toilets available and each campsite has a pit fire provided. We are getting low on firewood so you will need to bring some along with you. There is access to drinking water. Our property is 2WD accessible and can accommodate small caravans and camper trailers. Not far from Buxton is Thirlmere where the Steam Train Museum is and train rides are available on the weekends, a great activity for the kids.

Calderwood, NSW · 12 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Nestled right up against the escarpment at an elevation of 450m, this high-end, off-grid 40 acre property effectively offers your own private slice of Macquarie Pass National Park - amazing views, giant cedar trees, fern forests, cascading waterfalls and palms surround. It feels remote but it's only 90 min from Sydney, 30 min to Kiama and just 15 min to the shops. The property also offers the only hiking path up to the top of the escarpment for some truly amazing views. As of September 2025, many of the trails on the property have been degraded by the rains and are now challenging for 2WD cars. If you're towing or it's wet we recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles. Since this is coastal rainforest and it has been very wet, expect leeches anywhere it is damp. These are easily kept at bay with deet and or trousers tucked into socks. We're not particularly price sensitive - until all those rate rises - but we are extremely value sensitive so we set out to make your stay extremely good value for your hard earned money. The land itself does most of the heavy lifting but also personal service and of course there's Lana to fall in love with. Note, Mellows Rd is 2.6km long and rises 400m - in parts the road is a 15 degree grade. It's all paved but narrow so if you are towing a large heavy load, it's going to strain your car.

3 nights at Pheasant Ground

Peaceful and central location. We were a bit limited with national park exploration given we had the dogs - so something to keep in mind even though the camp is dog friendly. Easy to day trip to various points on the coast. Note that it is right off the tourist drive but it’s not particularly noisy and we were fortunate to have the area to ourselves. It appeared that there were other camps further into the property which were more secluded. We didn’t realise this so would probably look for one of those if booking next time. Otherwise a great stay!

Weekend Trip to Pheasant Ground

We had a great time camping on Cliff’s property! The location was peaceful and the property and toilets were well kept for a comfortable stay. Cliff was a fantastic host, going out of his way collecting the dead branches we had gathered from the side of the road and cutting them up for us saving us hours of us axing away. We really appreciated his generosity and would highly recommend staying here!

Great little spot with very little road noise at night. Was great having flushing toilets so close by and a fire pit. Would definitely stay again.

Great camping spot for a group of people. Had a blast and easy to get to the waterfall just up the road.

Even in the rain the site stayed pretty clear, wasn’t too mushy and the bathroom was only a short walk away for those who needed it. Cliff noticed we were there almost as soon as we all pulled up and cleaned the bathroom for us, he’s a lovely guy. Yea it’s close to the road but there’s only so many cars passing and it is protected by a garden along the fence. Thank you Cliff and Family for having me and my group of teenagers, it was perfect and great for the price.

Cliff was a great host. We loved the location. We booked both the campsites for (privacy) but all camped on the back site, in the trees. The camp site is close to Carrington Falls as well as Robertson and the Illawarra Fly, which we loved.

The spacious campsite offers plenty of room to set up, surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. The scenic drive through Robertson adds to the experience, and with Kiama just 30 minutes away, you get the perfect blend of highland serenity and coastal accessibility. Cliff was super accommodating.

This was a great little camp ground, it’s good for a big group. Robertson is a beautiful place we had the dog roll in and got some great photos

Nice spot, really good location, only 5 mins from Robertson which is a very lovely little town and very close to waterfalls. Ammenities were very clean and our dog loved the large grasses area.
