Sylva Lagoons is a 570 acre beef cattle and native timber producing farm, which we, Pete and Elaine bought seven years ago, for somewhere beautiful and peaceful for our retirement. It is so beautiful living here we thought we should share it. If you are booking to join us, please give a rough eta so we can be at the campground to welcome you The lagoon at the campground is over 10 acres of water, with native forest on three sides. It is great for canoeing or bushwalking and our bird life is spectacular. No phone or internet since 3G was removed. Sorry! Dog friendly - with limitations. Flushing disabled toilet available. Good access for 2WD. Campfires permitted in a designated area and firewood available for a donation to cut it all. CRITICAL! As we are farmers we need to know your ETA. Please advise us your ETA before arrival so we can be there to greet you.

Weekend Trip to Mill Farm

I loved this place, just surrounded by Macadamia trees. The Silo is way more cozy that what we were expecting. It was rainy, so Lance let us place the tent undercover, and the bathroom is one of the cleanest I have ever seen. Highly recommended if you need to stop and go or for a few days as it is very close to Ballina and Byron.

What a fantastic spot. Felt like we had the world to ourselves. The river was fantastic to cool off. Massive storm came through and Kate came and set up a Marquee for us. Always on call and always incredibly helpful. We had the most magic Christmas!

Weekend Trip to Mill Farm

The place is lovely. You camp in the middle of a macadamia orchard, very far from hosts and anyone else so you can be as loud as you like. There is a toilet and a shower with hot water. The hosts were pleasant and accommodating. You can also buy some macadamia from them (that they grew) for a reasonable price for cash. Checkin and checkout was easy. Would camp here again if I come down there again.

Weekend Trip to Petaurus Gardens

Me and my partner had been camping for two weeks and decided to treat ourselves to a night where we didn’t have to put up our tent. We are so glad we chose to come here for our night off. It was bliss! Chris is super friendly and really welcoming. The yurts are well maintained and well furnished. Shower and toilets were very clean and spider free which I was very grateful for.

Absolutely beautiful property, generous hosts, very handy to the highway. We had a lovely stop off in the studio flat & would love to return for a longer stay. A great place for kids & our doggo loved being able to interact with the animals, was very curious/wary of the super cute highland cow!

Fantastic location for off grid stays. Hoast "Squiggles" was a great chat and very informative of the local area. Great fishing from site, 2 very welcoming dogs that got on fine with my 10yo JR. Even the dolphins came to say hello during my morning coffee.. We'll be back.

Great location and accommodation. The only minor comment would be that the beach is off limits to dogs even though the accommodation is.

We loved the spacious area, where you can find your own peaceful spot in the grass. It’s quiet, with plenty of kangaroos passing by, and there’s water available to fill up the tank. We’ll definitely be back—thank you!

Disappointed that Hip Camp directions took me down a track to the back of the property. Well worth the stay as it was so peaceful, relaxing, friendly hosts, clean amenities & an amazing outlook over a lagoon full of birdlife.
