Silent Grove, NSW · 19 sites · Tents, RVs
Binghi Station
Located approximately 4.5hours from Brisbane, Queensland, or 1.5 hour drive west of Tenterfield, New South Wales. Binghi Station, once a large sheep station, was a thriving tin and gem mine from the late 1800 to mid 1900.
Set on 4,000 acres of natural granite rock country and untouched overgrowth of lush tea tree bushlands, the sheer beauty of the land will, without a doubt, leave you breathless of its raw natural beauty.
Binghi Station surrendered to the ravaging bush fires of 2019, however, after this devastation came some much needed rainfall which brought hope; the creation of new life in the form of rich, vibrant green country not seen since the 1980’s.
You can explore endlessly on this raw outback property. Discover secret hideouts, come and enjoy a swim under our flowing waterfall (for those brave enough to during the winter months!) and simply relax and soak in pure wildlife beneath a million stars in the night sky.
Binghi Station is designed for the 4x4 enthusiasts. In other words we strongly recommend access by 4WD only as the entry 6klm driveway is very rugged and bumpy in most places due to heavy rain fall past 12 months. Please ask for more details if necessary should you have any concerns based on your equipment. Its an ongoing maintenance. Its the 4x4 adventure. We would rather talk it down than up:-)
Currently we do not recommend SUV AWD type cars due to there lower profile and vulnerability to bumps and ruts. It is doable many do it all however about driver confidence and add another upto 2hours to trip :-) We recommend parking up the top driveway and having a preplanned lift down.
BE WARNED The driveway and some tracks are rough suited for 4x4 adventure enthusiasts that like to use there pride and joy offroad gear for what its intended.
ps One thing we can say you will never get bogged on our driveway no matter the rain fall as its very compacted despite its authentic rough character.
The Secret Gorge site is suited to tents, camper trailers and smaller length caravans. All our other site locations are suited to off-road 4WD caravans and camper trailers.
Binghi Station - an extraordinary place to make some truly wonderful family memories. :-)

Willsons Downfall, NSW · 34 sites · Tents, RVs
Space, scenic views, a series of mountain bike tracks to test your skills, abundant wildlife, peace and quiet.
These best describe this 754 hectare (1864 acres) property.
Stonepine Ridge is 'remote' - your camp sites are away from any dwellings - but you are still close enough to country towns across borders.
There is plenty of space for social distancing onsite. Most camp sites are 50 or more metres apart. Sites are not assigned. The site number on your confirmation is just for our booking records. Please CHOOSE ANY AREA within the marked camping zone.
The terrain is mostly treed with some cleared, pastured country. There is an upgraded 12km mountain bike/walking track that allows you to take a cool walk or ride in the forest. Follow the pink ribbon trail!
On the border with the Queensland town of Stanthorpe, Stonepine Ridge is close to the historic areas of Willsons Downfall and Amosfield in New South Wales. Home to many rivers that traverse the property from top to bottom, the Boonoo Boonoo and Bookookookarara rivers and Undercliffe and Boonoo Boono Falls are close by and are popular sites to spend a few hours walking/hiking and immersing yourself in the ambient countryside.
The Boonoo Boonoo and Bald rock National Parks are also within this area. The beautiful New England town of Tenterfield is about 20 minutes drive from the falls and offers visitors many shopping and restaurant options. Be sure to stop en route to visit the World War 2 tank traps - (Australia's Maginot Line) and Thunderbolt's hideout. A short drive across the border into Queensland will give you access to the Girraween National Park and a host of wineries, coffee shops, restaurants and pubs.
This camping property is large and you will find no better place that allows for gentle as well as more advanced walking, hiking and mountain biking. Look for the pink ribbons that mark the trail. The altitude on the property varies from 900m at the top down to 50m to the bottom. The temperature is variable with mostly cool nights, which makes for restful sleep and a nice fire to add to the ambience.

Undercliffe, NSW · 55 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Welcome to Undercliff Farm
Step back to a time when life moved slower and the land spoke louder than the world. Undercliff Farm isn't a modern park or a luxury retreat; it’s a private sanctuary where the quiet rustle of the leaves is the only soundtrack you’ll need. We believe in the honest beauty of simplicity—where a starry sky is better than any screen and a shared campfire means more than convenience.
Trackside: A Home for Riders
For those who find peace in the hum of an engine, our 325-acre backyard awaits. The Trackside sites, nestled under plane trees, offer a simple place to rest your head after a day’s adventure.
* By Arrangement: We prefer groups and keep things orderly to protect the peace.
* The Essentials: While Trackside is unpowered (generators allowed).
Respecting the Sanctuary
We are merely caretakers of this soil. We ask that you walk softly, leaving only footprints so the wildlife and future generations can enjoy this harmony. To keep our trees healthy and our ecosystem safe, please do not bring outside wood onto the farm.
A Warm Welcome
Good dogs are welcome, and good manners are expected. We invite you to breathe deep, respect your neighbour, and find your own quiet corner of renewal.
Creatures of comfort
• We offer 6 powered sites only.
• Amenities are for your convenience.
• Clean up after yourself and your children.
• While we do check amenities morning and evening, please let us know if anything is needed.

Broadwater, NSW · 5 sites · Tents, RVs
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.
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.

Upper Horseshoe Creek, NSW · 8 sites · Tents, RVs
Look for the big red letterbox on the right.
This spot is for people that think that they are the only ones left in the world. Once at the top, it's yours to live in peace and quiet. There is one little draw back...........you have full internet streaming for youtube plus full mobile phone signal while at the top.
56 acres of undulating hills covered with native bush land, with 8 cleared sites for you to set up camp.
If you like an adventure then this mountain is for you. 2 sites called "Top of the world tent site 1 and tent site 2" are accessible by 4WD (tent camping is advised) There is a steep 19 degree road up to the penthouse summit thats at 1000ft. However if it is dry you can tow a small camping trailer but only if you have a winch. If it rains while up there you need to ring me before descending down the mountain. It's an adventure.
Campers are welcome to have a campfire, there is plenty of timber on the ground that you can collect or bring your own. As long as there is no fire ban.
There are some great bush walks you can enjoy, including down to the creek (about a 40 min walk) and down to a huge dam 5 mins walk away from the top. When you get to the creek it is picturesque with lemon trees and peach trees along the edge while in season plus bush figs also when in season. There are 2 sites down at the creek called Firefly's and platypus and these are for off road self contained
4x4 campers and those with a tent. The creek is pristine and crystal clear unless it's raining. These 2 sites are absolutely private if you book them both. If you don't mind sharing the creek with another camper then you only need to book 1 site.
There is also a concrete floor shelter that can have 2-3 hammocks stretched underneath if desired.
There is also a 10 month of the year 30 metre high waterfall
(depending on rain fall this waterfall can vary from massive water to slow water) and another seasonal waterfall. Don't forget the dam for swimming in. The spa tub has fresh mountain spring water constantly flowing into it that is visible from the dam good view camp site and the just grass site from an inch and a half poly pipe constantly overflowing into the dam from the spar. This is cleaned for summer dips.
The water down at the creek is safe to drink with no filter needed.
The creek is running and crystal clear and very private.
If you are in a 2 wheel drive RV/ Motorhome you can book the "Paw Paw hill site" or "a dam good view"
There is one site that is all grass accessible in the dry weather. Plenty of drinking water is also available at all sites either via a tap or the creek running water.
All campers MUST HAVE their own portable toilet. If no portable toilet you can purchase one from many camping stores at a reasonable price before coming.
Doing number 2 in the bush is totally unacceptable. Because this is a leave no trace camp site we do ask you to take all trash with you when you leave as well.
There is no council rubbish collection in this area. We respect our beautiful paradise and we know you will appreciate it also.
If you make a fire please leave it so I can mow around it once you leave. E.G Please remove all sticks and unburned logs.

Escape the ordinary. This is Byron Hinterland relaxation at its most magical. Tucked away on over 26 acres of lush hinterland just minutes from the village of Federal, this extraordinary property is a genuine sanctuary—peaceful, private, and teeming with life.
Whether you're waking to birdsong, watching a platypus glide across the lake at dusk, or spotting wallabies grazing in the morning light, every moment here feels like a gift.
The property's beautiful lake is the beating heart of this retreat. Its resident duck has claimed the water as home territory and will likely come to greet you. At dawn and dusk, keep your eyes peeled for the elusive platypus—a rare and enchanting sight that guests return to again and again. The birdlife is exceptional year-round, with a rich chorus that fills the air from first light.
This is a place where you genuinely switch off. Rolling across 26 acres of diverse Northern Rivers landscape, the property offers a beautiful rainforest with wonderful natural diversity. The scale of the land means total privacy; your nearest neighbor feels very far away.
Positioned just off the Pacific Highway, 142 Coorabell Road is effortlessly convenient for travelers heading north or south—yet once you turn down the driveway, the highway world disappears entirely. Federal village is only minutes away, home to the beloved Doma Cafe and Moonshine Cafe, which are perfect for a morning coffee or a long, lazy lunch.

The spot is beautiful in what feels like a tropical garden area of our property. There is access to a compost toilet and a super cute warm shower in the forest. The property itself is pretty wonderful and in the winter the black cockatoos love to come in dozens. There is koalas and wallabies also if you're special enough to spot them. But they are around .. so for this reason please keep pets on a leash.
Our property is located approximately 20 minutes from Byron Bay. A short drive to the Wilson River and a number of lovely beaches.
Enjoy the evenings gazing at the stars as you warm your toes around the campfire. Fires must be contained to the firepit provided. Please ensure the fire pit is completely out before leaving or going to sleep. When the weather is windy it is prohibited to light up the fire pit. Your safety and respect for the land and region is greatly appreciated and important for all of us.
If you can take all your rubbish with you also that would be appreciated because we don't keep meat or fish scraps in the bins either and the recycling is also something that fills up fast for us in residence. Leaving the site as you found it is humbly appreciated.
Please drive in gently and park only one car in the camp spot. The second car will need to be parked out on the road which is very close. Although if you needed the car for sleep let me know and I will arrange the second car spot for sleep on the property. There is firm ground leading into the camp spot but then it moves into grass which if you drive just into the entrance it will be fine in all weather but please don't drive irresponsibly and such that it will bring the mud up.
Your cooperation and respect for the land is greatly needed and appreciated.

If you are looking for a natural wonderland, where you can enjoy Australian bush camping at its absolute best, this is it. The property is so spectacular, that parts of it have even been featured on TV's Farmer Wants a Wife.
The terrain is rugged and hilly, but the host has created easy access to several excellent, grassy camping sites some exclusive to one group at a time, others around the large dam but still with plenty of space. They all have good road access for even 2WD, provided they have good clearance.
The creek and rocks are stunning and will provide hours of fun. Fishing tours are run on the property at an extra cost, it is strictly catch and release and must discuss it beforehand with the host. We do not permit hunting as we want our guests to have and enjoy the tranquility and space.

Just five minutes up the road is Green Valley Fun Park with a huge playground, jumping pillow, animal walkabout, museum and 18 hole mini putt. So plenty to keep kids entertained both on and off the property!

HIDING IN THE MIDDLE OF EVERYWHERE!
Pure. Unadulterated. WILD.
104 very private acres, securely sandwiched between a National Park Nature Reserve and State Forest.
On a dead end road. No agriculture or farms upstream, only one other like-minded property owner.
Secluded, but hiding smack bang in the middle of everywhere!
From vertiginous sandstone cliffs on which epipetrics cling tight,
right through to palm-filled rainforests, and with two quite different creek systems (including a monster waterfall),
you'll be spoiled for things to do and
places to explore - without even leaving the property!
HISTORY
This land is Gumbaynggirr land. Please be particularly mindful of our First Nation's long presence on this land.
In the 1800's, white men came
seeking Red Cedar, closely followed by settlers having a go at dairying; though logging
has remained this area's mainstay. This special property, despite last being selectively logged about 50 years ago, hosts many huge old-growth trees
remaining steadfast for your discovery and wonder. And many more are continuing to
grow out too.
About 35 years ago
about nine of this property's eastern-most 104 acres became part of a far larger nashi pear orchard which filled much of the flats of
this top end of the valley that you see today.
Ultimately they failed to set good commercial fruit, and the rootstocks took over.
You can see remnant rows of these trees just south of the property, from along the road. (Beware though -
they have spikes that could
puncture Caterpillar tracks!)
MORE RECENTLY extensive lantana control efforts have been undertaken as we now move into revegetating with native species and implementing a permaculture plan.
Today the property is registered with Land For Wildlife and hosts a very wide mix of native vegetation communities.
ACTIVITIES
Bird watch. Climb. Abseil. Photograph wildflowers. Paint. Swim. In the next valley there's even gold to be found.
Explore trails by mountain bike.
Whale watch. Surf. Learn SCUBA. Go beach-combing. Catch a mudcrab. Go whitewater river rafting.
Ask your host about where to find all the local
waterfalls, the best walking, how to find gold, the gnarliest off-road tracks, Anything is possible here in this magnificent part of the world, except perhaps snow and ice.

We loved our stay at Ecoasis and Roxanne was very accommodating, assisting in arranging remedial massages to helps us fully relax and unwind during our stay. The view was spectacular and the peace and quiet only interrupted by the sound of the birds in the trees.

Great views, sunset from camp was just as good as the first night. Really loved the spot and great host. Bit of noise from roadworks happening at the moment but was still enjoyable.

Had a great place on the ridge line looking out onto the hinterlands. The sunset and stars here are phenomenal. There are some shared facilities a short walk from the campsite which makes things more comfortable. The team working with Greg when I was there were friendly and welcoming.

This place was truly an amazing spot!! we stayed two nights at the 4wd access creek site. The creek was so beautiful with such beautiful scenery. As a wildlife lover we were greeted with so much bird life and even saw a beautiful eel going about his day in the creek!! It truly is the gate way into the enchanted rainforest!! We are on a trip from Victoria and it such a great choice to stay for our halfway point. I saw another review that said spending just one night was not enough and they were right, so i recommend staying more than one!! I would keep in mind if you are thinking of staying at this location we had very patchy reception if not none at all (which we didn’t mind as we were looking for this) but just a heads up if that is something you needed to know before staying. Overall a beautiful site with so much to offer thank you for letting us stay!!

We had such a lovely time on our weekend at Oakey Campsite! Greg was ever so lovely and helped us pick the best spot, checking in on us throughout our stay also and offering to get us dry firewood after we had some rain. The farm is beautiful, the cows were adorable, the amenities were perfect, our dog had the time of his life. We would definitely be coming back hopefully the weather will be on our side next time!

Beautiful views and great sites albeit a little hilly. Flushing toilet near entrance not really walkable if you are at the top of the hill so self contained is the best.
