Budgong, NSW · 5 sites · Tents, RVs
100 acres of secluded paradise with a kilometer of free flowing pebbled creek. Bound on two sides by the craggy escarpments of the Budgong and Morton National Parks there is ample grassland to give a feeling of space yet an abundance of trees to wander through as you engage with the tame wildlife and magnificent birdlife.
Bring your mountain bike, fishing rod, swimmers, hiking boots, tennis racket, basketball (a hoop on the tennis court) or climbing gear and leave the kids in the play area while you sit by the creek and listen to the water tumbling through the rocks.
If you are as intrigued by rare animals as we are, then this is the place for you. 63 Bird species, 24 mammals, 16 reptiles, and 12 amphibians have been sighted in the area (Clarke 2012) and this includes many rare and endangered species including the platypus, brush-tailed rock wallaby, Giant burrowing frog, Gang-gang cockatoo, Glossy black-cockatoo, Koala, Little Lorikeet and the Yellow-bellied glider.
We only have five campsites at present, so you will be guaranteed peace, space and privacy. with a minimum of 300m between all sites. Please note, that your group must be self-contained, with their own camp toilet, however fresh drinking water is available.
Access is into a valley on a well maintained unsealed road but there are some minor causeways making it unsuitable for busses or long low slung vans. An ordinary sedan will do for Billabong and Dad's camp sites but you will need some power for towing and a 4x4 to tow out in any rain. Riverbend and the Crossing sites are only suitable for 4x4's and off-road vans / trailers.
You are a 40 minute drive from the sea (try the Shoalhaven 100 beach challenge https://www.shoalhaven.com/100-beach-challenge/ ) and just 15km from the historical town of Kangaroo Valley with its myriad of water activities, golf, wine estates, and quaint shopping. ttps://visitkangaroovalley.com.au/see-and-do/

Calderwood, NSW · 11 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.

BEFORE YOU BOOK - PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS PROPERTY IS RIGHT FOR YOU
1. CAPACITY - We are able to host only a single campsite comprising a single tent or caravan for no more than two nights duration only. This will ensure compliance with NSW State Govt regulations that are policed heavily by Eurobodalla Shire Council.

We apologise if this prohibits your larger family and small group from enjoying our property (which we strongly believe should be permitted.
2. SITE AMENITIES - The camp is best suited to adventurous campers with swags, tents, rooftops, light camping trailers and small popup caravans. There is a flushing toilet, a hot shower, running (dam) water, and firepits but no electricity or refrigeration. We have fire pits available for guests use, please ensure there are no restrictions in place before lighting a campfire in the designated firepit. FREE FIREWOOD is available on site.
3. ROAD ACCESS - The last couple of km of dirt track are undulating and dusty, but perfectly fine for all vehicles in dry conditions. Access and exit will become challenging for larger motorhomes and caravans, heavy camping trailers and 2WD vehicles (especially front-wheel-drive), after periods of heavy or prolonged rain. We will refund your booking fee if you choose to cancel, or we close the property, due to the weather (it will need to be bad for us to close the property, so you won’t want to be there anyway). Please message us in advance for advice if you are concerned about the weather or vehicle access.

Wake up to the sounds of the waves crashing, mere footsteps away from Merry Beach in the small, beachside town of Kioloa, when you stay at Ingenia Holidays Merry Beach! With many sites and cabins offering direct beach access and ocean views, choose from an array of accommodation options including private villas, cabins or two-story presidential stays, or get back to nature on a powered or unpowered camping or caravan site.
If you do decide to stray from the peaceful surrounds of Ingenia Holidays Merry Beach on the New South Wales South Coast, make the short trek to Murramarang National Park, where you can soak up nature by tackling one of the beach-hugging hiking trails.
Back at home base, soak up the amenities which include a new playground and resort-style pool. While your togs and towel are definite packing essentials for this holiday park, don’t forget your camera to capture the local eastern grey kangaroos who call Merry Beach home.

We had a wonderful stay at this campsite. Gina and Shawn made us feel so welcome and comfortable from the moment we arrived. The campsite was well maintained, and the compost toilet was exceptionally clean, which we really appreciated. The fresh eggs were delicious and such a lovely touch. Their hospitality and attention to detail made our stay perfect. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable camping experience!

It was our second time staying at Glennbrooke River Camp, and it certainly won’t be our last. It’s such a peaceful and relaxing spot right on the river.
The hosts are friendly, welcoming, and easygoing. We were able to arrange a later checkout, giving our tent time to dry before packing up and my partner time for a morning ride. Brooke also organised a generous trailer load of perfectly dry firewood, making for a cosy winter evening spent around the fire, stargazing, and cooking over the flames.
We highly recommend Glennbrooke River Camp for anyone looking to unwind in nature. It’s also close to the mountain bike trails, and we topped off our stay with lunch and a beer at Tilba Brewery and Winery. A fantastic getaway!

Stopped by for 1 night on our way down the coast, Ian was there to great us upon arrival along with Lana!
Ian has done a fantastic job making this site as great as it is, plenty of comforts as mentioned in the description which we did not use only due to staying overnight.
We stayed at Cedar Loggers Camp which offers a great privacy, toilets, water and a fire pit all ready to use along with some decking also which was a nice touch.
The lovely Lana was the little freebie we were not expecting, beautiful natured pup that was our ground guide all the our campsite and she even kept us company through out the night sleeping right next to our swag.
We cannot wait for a longer summer stay here to take full advantage of the campsite’s amenities and the walking trails!
Thank you Ian & Lana!

The riverside site was perfect. Amazing location and great weather. The games shed with ping pong table and dart board was a great addition, and all facilities were well kept. Good private location, but also close to Merimbula as well!

We loved camping here! The site offered beautiful views of the farm and the surrounding areas and was private and well maintained. The composting toilet was an added bonus. Gina was extremely friendly and welcoming when we arrived which we greatly appreciated. 10/10 would camp here again!

Absolute beauty of a spot, feels very private with ammenities a short walk away. Facilities were great, very handy for making hot water bottles 🥶 will definitely be coming back in summer! Only thing is the “beach view” is kind of hidden by trees so if you’re after the full beach view maybe book one of the powered sites. Either way absolutely stunning can’t wait to come back!

Stayed at Millingandi Station with my miniature dachshunds and it was everything we needed. The flat grassy paddocks are huge and safe — perfect for leash walks with farm smells (sheep, horses, kangaroos everywhere). We spent hours by the tidal creek launching the kayak/SUP and just watching the water. Pelicans Rest riverside sites are next-level peaceful.
Jodie and Brett are legends — warm, quick to reply, sorted firewood instantly, and the fresh oysters + farm eggs from the property were ridiculous (in the best way). The veggie/herb garden is a beautiful touch. Campfires under the stars, zero stress, and only minutes to Merimbula or Pambula beaches and shops.
As the founder of Sausage Therapy, this place felt like an extension of the work I do — land, water, animals, and stillness doing the healing. My dogs thrived here. My nervous system finally exhaled.
If you have dogs, love the water, or just want proper space and peace on the Sapphire Coast, book it. I’ll be back. 5 stars without hesitation.

This was a last minute booking heading to Mogo for some MTB riding over 3 days and we were pleasantly surprised by the openess and flat grassed areas in such a quiet and serene environment. Large areas to yourself and wildlife around to enjoy, enough shade to relax if it’s hot and campfires and portable toilets scattered around. Beautiful location and Lisa was very friendly and easy going! Thankyou for having us!

Easy access with a 2 wheel drive, wide gates.
Water on site.
Firepits
Fire wood available to purchase.
Kindling on ground for free.
Space between sites.
Very little road noise, not worth worrying about.
Great butcher in Shoalhaven Heads and an IGA.
We visited this hipcamp in winter (June). With our dog.
I’m going to say there would be a slightly different vibe in Summer (not better or worse).
The owner Kerren, came down with our firewood and had a chat, when we arrived.
We based ourselves here and did a few day trips.
The beaches around are beautiful and Berry is a must visit.
We had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend.

Where to go
Illawara
On the Illawara Coast, Shellharbour is home to the National Surfing Reserve of Killalea, and the area is also a favourite of snorkellers and divers who can explore the many shipwrecks and marine life-filled underwater cliffs. Beachfront and just a short walk from the centre, various tourist parks offer a range of accommodation including powered sites, ensuite cabins, and self-contained beachside cottages. A little farther south, Killalea State Park has a secluded camping area in the park’s grassy meadows with access to facilities including toilets, hot showers, and an undercover electric barbecue area.
Shoalhaven Coast
Another favourite among surfers and divers, the Shoalhaven Coast is also known as a wine-growing region and for the powder-white sands, crystalline waters, and whale- and dolphin-spotting opportunities of Jervis Bay. Within Booderee National Park at Jervis Bay, the Cave Beach camping area offers some of Australia’s best secluded beach camping with access to cold showers and barbecues. Farther south, beachfront caravan sites and campgrounds in Murramarang National Park let you can camp alongside resident kangaroos.
Eurobodalla Coast
The Eurobodalla Coast is home to the seaside town of Batemans Bay, famed for its fresh seafood, particularly oysters, as well as the Clyde River National Park, where you can go bushwalking, kayaking, and fishing. Just south of town, Batemans Bay holiday parks offer villas as well as powered sites with access to laundry facilities and BBQ areas. Farther south, Tuross Head is perched on a headland between two tidal lakes, making it the perfect spot for kayaking, fishing, boating, and swimming. Look out for peaceful holiday units, plus powered and unpowered caravan and camping sites with ocean views and easy access to the beach and lake.
Sapphire Coast
At the southern end of the NSW coast, the tranquil Sapphire Coast is home to the small town of Eden, one of the best places in Australia to spot humpback whales on their annual migration from May through September. Just outside town, waterfront holiday parks offer large powered and unpowered caravan sites, as well as a range of cabins, with access to camp kitchens. Forty minutes north, rustic Hobart Beach Campground in Bournda National Park has unpowered sites that make the perfect base for swimming, hiking, and exploring nearby secluded beaches.
