Two Mile Crossing is a 101 acre property consisting of mostly bushland with a small creek running through the middle, offering primitive bush camping for those who love to be out in nature. There is abundant birdlife here such as black cockatoos, kookaburras and tiny little robins, you will see bandicoots and the occasional goanna. The creek flows year 'round and when there has been good rains, there are plentiful deep water holes to dip your feet into and get cool.
There are a few walking tracks throughout the property for those who like to take short walks and for longer bushwalking adventures, Two Mile Crossing is bordered by the Fortis Creek National Park where there a plentiful tracks for those who love to explore the bush.
We are only 20 mins drive from the 'mighty' Clarence River which is great for swimming, canoeing and fishing and we are also only 25 mins from Grafton central which has shops, cinemas and places to eat.
Just recently we have added two gorgeous piglets to our family who love to hang out with us and the chickens. Come and help us feed every afternoon.

Good stop over for the night. A little on the pricey side but given there is nothing else in the area has the monopoly.
Mowed patch of lawn next to sugar cane field. No power/water.
Friendly host.

We popped in for a quick over night stay and Riverdale on out trip north.
It is right on the river if you love a fish.
Paul has an old Red Kelpi, she was lovely and friendly.
She got loads of pets from the kids.
Paul was easy to deal with.
Camp site was nice and dry, flat and well maintained.
We highly recommend staying here if you are in the area.

Great stopover camp! On a busy road so just be mindful if you have dogs and kids but other than that was great! Close to the river for a quick fish and serene cane field views! Also they have the sweetest farm dog ever she hung out with us all night until we went to sleep.

This is a terrific Hipcamp !! It’s on the river with access for swimming, lots of shade, green grass or sun if you need solar. Water tap is on site (not potable) and 10amp power. Also the hosts Mary and Trevor are very accomodating and friendly.

Loved this spot, right on the river and 3 mins drive to the beach. Grass wasn't the nicest to walk on barefoot but there were no prickles etc even our toddler was barefoot. Owner was easy going, but still ready to deal with some rowdy neighbours cranking music.
We would love to come back in better weather

I liked the openness and big wide skies over this property. It is across the road from a large river & a short drive to a good long stretch of beach that I think is unpatrolled and doesn’t have many people there even in the summer holiday period.

It was a nice, refreshing spot to camp—peaceful and quiet, with no one around, so my dog could run freely without any issues. The weather was comfortable, not too hot, and the breeze was beautiful. If you’re looking for somewhere to relax and enjoy a cold one, this is the place.
