We offer pick your own fruit so are open to the public daily (closed on occasion). Trading hours can be viewed at www.bookingscanoeladns.com. We are surrounded by the stunning valley views of Marra Marra National Park. Guests can enjoy hiking, wandering the orchard picking fresh produce, taking a tractor ride, feeding the animals and relaxing. Please note we are a working farm so sometimes tractors and vehicles can be heard working from 7am. There will be foot traffic and possibly tractor rides operating near some of the sites although we will do our best to respect your privacy while you are here. We also have a quarry surrounding most of the property, so they sometimes operate machinery early. This is not generally too disruptive though. We are just 15 minutes' drive from the beautiful historical Wiseman's Ferry and the Hawkesbury River. There are multiple hiking tracks located close by. We have several sites to offer around the property. We have a beautiful huge dam just 350m down the gully. It’s super peaceful although a steep walk down the driveway to access, it's definitely worth it, so pack your walking shoes and some swimmers.

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.

If your heart beats to the vibrant drum of the Southern Highlands but you want the space and freedom of camping on a great river, then Wings of the Carribee is for you.
Two campsites share 20 Acres of cottonwood trees on the Wingecarribee river. They are 250m apart and both on the riverfront giving you the seclusion you need while allowing you access to all that the Highlands have to offer. Bring your fishing rod and yabbie net, sit at the large picnic table, rent a kayak and go for a paddle, come say hello to the miniature Hereford cattle and enjoy the half drum fire pit while watching the cows grazing across the river. If you are bringing dog(s) then they must be on a lead or consider Yabbie which is enclosed.
Of course you will be tempted to explore the area. Wings sits directly between Bowral and Moss Vale (both are less than 5km away) and is 14 km from historic Berrima so you can leave the camper and head into town to enjoy the old world charm of the area. The Southern Highlands is ideal if you’re wanting to escape Sydney (100km) or Canberra (160km) without lengthy travel. Discover all that the area has to offer including a host of idyllic country towns, fascinating shops and regular country events. With it’s abundant wineries, award-winning restaurants, culinary delights, and natural splendor, it’s the place to unplug, find yourself and indulge in some of life’s finest pleasures.

To maintain the family-friendly atmosphere, we kindly request campers to adhere to our quiet hours starting at 9 PM. We discourage those not oriented towards family activities and serene evenings, ensuring everyone can enjoy the tranquility of the natural surroundings.
River Adventures:
For water enthusiasts, our campsite boasts a pristine river where you can swim, fish, and kayak to your heart's content. Imagine spending a lazy afternoon on the water, teaching your kids to fish or paddling along the gentle current. It's an idyllic setting for aquatic family adventures.
Riverside Camping:
With over 600 meters of riverside campsites spread across 50 acres of lush bushland, you'll find the perfect spot to set up your tent or park your camper. Each site provides a secluded and tranquil escape, allowing you to immerse yourself in nature while still enjoying the comforts of a well-maintained camping area.
Explore Nature on Foot or Wheels:
Nature enthusiasts will delight in the variety of activities available. Embark on a bushwalk, discovering the flora and fauna that call the Grose Valley home. Mountain biking enthusiasts can navigate our trails, exploring the landscape on two wheels. There's always an adventure waiting just beyond your campsite.
Campfires and Seasonal Delights:
As the sun sets, gather around a crackling campfire with family and friends. We provide plenty of firewood to keep the flames dancing, creating the perfect atmosphere for storytelling and bonding. And when the season is right, don't forget to grab some homegrown avocados or contribute a small donation for kayak hire—all proceeds go to Beyond Blue, supporting mental health initiatives.
Proximity to Richmond:
Just a 10-minute drive away lies Richmond, a town with a rich history dating back to the early 19th century. Explore the blend of modern suburbia and historical landmarks, adding a touch of culture to your camping experience.
Supporting a Cause:
Extra vehicles are welcome with a small fee, and rest assured, all proceeds go to Beyond Blue, supporting mental health awareness and initiatives.
Camp Before Sunset:
For a stress-free and safe camp setup, we recommend arriving before sunset. This ensures you have ample time to settle in, allowing you to start your camping adventure on a comfortable note.
Discover your secluded spot to swim, camp, fish, or simply relax. Join us in the Grose Valley for a camping experience that caters to the whole family, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Canoelands Orchard Camping and Fruit Picking, is located just 1 hour from Sydney's CBD. The property is 81 acres in total with a small shop and cafe onsite. We offer pick your own fruit so are open to the public daily (closed on occasion). Trading hours can be viewed at www.bookingscanoeladns.com. We are surrounded by the stunning valley views of Marra Marra National Park. Guests can enjoy hiking, wandering the orchard picking fresh produce, taking a tractor ride, feeding the animals and relaxing. Please note we are a working farm so sometimes tractors and vehicles can be heard working from 7am. There will be foot traffic and possibly tractor rides operating near some of the sites although we will do our best to respect your privacy while you are here. We also have a quarry surrounding most of the property, so they sometimes operate machinery early. This is not generally too disruptive though. We are just 15 minutes' drive from the beautiful historical Wiseman's Ferry and the Hawkesbury River. There are multiple hiking tracks located close by. We have several sites to offer around the property. We have a beautiful huge dam just 350m down the gully. It’s super peaceful although a steep walk down the driveway to access, it's definitely worth it, so pack your walking shoes and some swimmers.

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.

and water is at the front of the property, if you're required to fill your tanks or rinse off.

If your heart beats to the vibrant drum of the Southern Highlands but you want the space and freedom of camping on a great river, then Wings of the Carribee is for you.
Two campsites share 20 Acres of cottonwood trees on the Wingecarribee river. They are 250m apart and both on the riverfront giving you the seclusion you need while allowing you access to all that the Highlands have to offer. Bring your fishing rod and yabbie net, sit at the large picnic table, rent a kayak and go for a paddle, come say hello to the miniature Hereford cattle and enjoy the half drum fire pit while watching the cows grazing across the river. If you are bringing dog(s) then they must be on a lead or consider Yabbie which is enclosed.
Of course you will be tempted to explore the area. Wings sits directly between Bowral and Moss Vale (both are less than 5km away) and is 14 km from historic Berrima so you can leave the camper and head into town to enjoy the old world charm of the area. The Southern Highlands is ideal if you’re wanting to escape Sydney (100km) or Canberra (160km) without lengthy travel. Discover all that the area has to offer including a host of idyllic country towns, fascinating shops and regular country events. With it’s abundant wineries, award-winning restaurants, culinary delights, and natural splendor, it’s the place to unplug, find yourself and indulge in some of life’s finest pleasures.
If the birds and the bees are your thing then you are also in for a rare treat. We have eastern greys, rabbits, the odd fox and a host of birdlife (eyes open for the resident wedgetail pair, pelicans, black swans etc.), but whatever you seek from your break, we look forward to hosting you.
Note that you have to bring your own toilet facility. Please confirm when you book that you are self sufficient in this regard.

Plenty of kindling around the tall trees and firewood for purchase. Lots of black cockatoos flying overhead and rosellas on the property, we also saw a wallaby and enjoyed the mooing of the cows. Access via gravel road, just be careful of the ditches either side when turning left into the camping area.

I love staying on Debbie’s property. The views and bushland were truly amazing.
I appreciated that Debbie had systems for things stressed respect for others and the comfort of everyone.
Thank you so much for providing this place to camp.

So lovely having the entire place to ourselves (plus the owners doggies). Hot river water shower and a toilet makes camping there a treat. Bit noisy with all the speed boats going most of the day but other than that, was great.

We stayed at the Flash Camp over New Years. I was really impressed with the amenities, Bbq's & toiletries.
The whole site is very family & kid friendly. They put on an inflatable water slide for the kids in the afternoons, there's a park area with slack lines & a flying fox plus a soccer field.
The water was beautiful & peaceful, plenty of shallow areas for the kids & deeper parts for a swim.
I highly recommend Jilla, we'll be back!!
Thanks for having us Philip

We had a lovely three-night stay nestled in the orchards; while many fruits were out of season, we really enjoyed picking the mandarins, peaches, and plums that were available. Jaime was a fantastic, hassle-free host who even opened the cafe on New Year’s Day for our coffee fix and organized animal feeding for our 3-year-old, who also loved the sandpit.
The extra-large sites were easy to find, and between the hot shower and the hot water available for dishes in the red-roofed building, we stayed very comfortable despite the inclement weather.

The best camping near Stanwell Tops with campfires guide
Where to go
Symbio Wildlife Park
Campers with families will want to plan a fun day at Symbio Wildlife Park. This private zoo and wildlife park offers opportunities to feed kangaroos, cool off in a splash park, or run off energy at an on-site playground. Reserve a pitch nearby at holiday parks that welcome pets, allow campfires, and provide toilets and water hookups. Or find cabin rentals near the beach for a cosier stay. Families who want to see the animals at their liveliest can visit during spring or autumn. However, the park is open year-round.
Dharawal National Park
Take an easy day trip from Stanwell Tops to Dharawal National Park. View the mystical waters of Madden Falls in winter after a short bush walk that is perfect for families, or pedal down the 10B cycling trail in spring to catch a glimpse of a yellow-tailed black cockatoo in the outback. Private campsites are abundant near the park with tent sites or glamping options at holiday parks that give campers access to hot showers at vacation rentals, power hookups for caravan sites, and beachfront cabins for families and groups.
Royal National Park
Campers will find almost too many outdoor activities at Royal National Park. Home to kookaburras, beaches, waterfalls, and coastal bushwalking trails, the park offers nearly 60 square miles of natural Australian outback, including a challenging trek to Figure Eight Pools. Cycle down trails, watch whales from clifftops, or spend a lazy day fishing from the shore. Then find unpowered private pitches inside the park as well as powered sites for the caravan or trailer. The campgrounds also provide picnic tables, drinking water, showers, toilets, and BBQ facilities.
When to go
Summer months bring crowds to Stanwell Tops for its sunny skies and hot temperatures. Hipcampers looking for a holiday at the beach during the school break will enjoy visiting in December or January. Those seeking smaller crowds and cooler weather should visit in spring or fall, especially if wildlife viewing is at the top of the adventure list.
