If you want to avoid the crowds our property is only 10 minutes drive to great local surf and fishing beaches at Crescent Head. There is an abundance of bird life, the odd kangaroos and wallabies, and other wildlife. There is a melaleuca forest that children are welcome to play in and build a cubby house, and 2 pretty little dams to catch yabbies, and for dogs to enjoy a swim.
The property where camping is provided is approx 20 acres with a limit of 10 groups so you can find your own little piece of paradise.
There is plenty of fire wood for you to collect on the property on your way in. Please help yourself to any fallen timber for firewood but please do not cut any standing trees down. When checking out, ensure you properly extinguish fires and return any unused firewood to the bush.
Dogs are welcome to be here off leash as long as they are well socialised and reasonably obedient. There is large areas for them to run freely and dams to swim in.
It is accessible via a 2WD dirt road, even with a little wet weather. If rainfall is extreme we recommend 4wd's.
The property is completely off grid so we have a 'leave it as you found it' approach. This means you will need a camp toilet, and to take all of your rubbish with you. We are a rural property so do not have rubbish collection services. (Fees apply for any left behind rubbish).
Happy camping!

Great property! Lovely private spot with a great swimming hole. The host takes great pride in the property and it shows, the upkeep of the site was immaculate and directions to reach the site were also very clear. We spent one night stopping over at the property at the end of a trip, however we wished we could stay longer and would definitely love to come back in the future.

Loved this site, rural plenty of room.
Is a little road noise, if you camped up the back site you most likely wouldn’t hear it. Close enough to Coffs Harbour without the bustle. Already recommended to family. We will go back!

Awesome campground, would definitely recommend. Easy access, large sites with firepits, does have communal composting toilets and potable water to fill tanks, but no shower if you are tenting etc. We had an awesome stay in our caravan and would recommend this place. 10-15 mins into local shops at coffs harbour.

The camp sites were beautiful, well kept, clean and very spacious, all the campsites are far apart from one another. If you like watching the stars at night this is the perfect place because theres no light pollution so you can see all the starts clearly and a beautiful view of the sunrise in the morning.

What a slice of heaven!
We came on a cloudy couple of days but it still did not disappoint.
Our daughter and dog had so much land to run around on and he creek was magnificent!! Yes there is a bit of muck in the water but who cares!? It was still Crystal clear and warm.
We had a visit off the hosts puppy who was adorable anda brief interaction with the host who was super friendly and respectful.
Couldn’t fault a thing!!!
It required three river crossings and a small but steep Hill to get to the campsite. We are no way experienced caravans but we managed all obstacles fine. No need for putting down tyre pressure or using recovery gear.
Superb stay.
