River, stream, or creek camping near Yass

Amazing place, from peace and quiet to the fishing and scenery - you won’t find much better than this! The drive in itself is worth the trip, and then stack the amazing camp sites and river on top and it’s the makings of the perfect weekend away.

Weekend Trip to Yarracoola Estate

This spot is perfect to relax by the river. We will be back :-)

Beautiful spot, nice and quiet country camping. Host was very responsive and gave great information before hand. Sheep are cute and add to the scenery, would recommend for a quiet weekend away!

1 night at Bahwidgee on Tumut River

Absolutely stunning and very private. Easy to find and easy to park our camping trailer. Plenty of flat space by the river. We will definitely be back!

Right on the river. Flat with shade trees. Friendly host. 5min from Tumut. Can have campfires. Beautiful spot.

Second time back this year and I’m not done yet. Absolutely love this place. Next time I’ll order the meat!!!

1 night at Aurora Serendipity

Beautiful place on the river , all flat sites and fireplaces everywhere , cattle wandering by - it’s wonderful

If you’re chasing peace, privacy, and that feeling of being completely off-grid without actually roughing it, this place nails it. Super quiet, surrounded by nature, and with plenty of space to spread out and unwind — exactly what we needed.

Weekend Trip to Redlands Camping

Great stay on a beautiful property, will be back again

Weekend Trip to Southern Tablelands Bush Camping

This is one of our favourite camping spots. So private, so convenient, so comfortable. And the hosts are wonderful - extremely helpful and very responsive. Ten out of ten!

Great spot! I suggest buying some meat and a bottle of red from Ben and his dad Eric. There is nothing better than having fresh meat a good bottle of red sitting right on the river watching a wombat walk past. Definitely going back.

Great location, right next to the river! Host was amazing, will definitely return soon.

1 night at Bahwidgee on Tumut River

Beautiful spot. We really enjoyed it. I now need 50 characters

We had the most relaxing time at this beautiful riverside campsite! It’s the perfect pet-friendly spot, and our dog absolutely loved having the freedom to explore. The location right next to the river was not only stunning but super peaceful—waking up to the sound of the water and birds was pure bliss. The sunsets here were breathtaking—each evening felt like a private show with vibrant colors reflecting off the water. It's an ideal place to unwind, enjoy nature, and disconnect from the daily grind. Highly recommend!

What an amazing place! Ben was really helpful and his property is amazing. Stayed right on the river and it was so peaceful. Will definitely be back soon.

Close to town, nice spot by the river. Fairly popular

What it says it is a camp spot along the river, great spot, firewood packs are great.

Great bush camp by the Tumut River. Peaceful, scenic, and perfect for fishing or just kicking back by the fire. Plenty of space, flat ground, and no crowds. Cold when I went, but the fire pit sorted that. Host was easygoing. Will definitely be back for another trip.

We loved our stay at Bahwidgee. We had a private site where we truely relaxed, enjoyed a fire, reconnected as a family and enjoyed the sound of the birds, the properties cattle and the mysterious playful platypuses. Highly recommend!

Maddara.Organic.Farm.and.Art

Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. We also allow for your pets to stay onsite, this also includes horses. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

Travellers Village Rest

Stay on our 2 acre block on the edge of a small village in the southern tablelands of NSW. We are conveniently close to the Hume Highway, with a level grassed site with scattered gum trees providing shade. Travellers between Melbourne and Sydney can easily pull in off the highway for a quick set up for the night, then be back on the road the next morning. Alternatively, our site is an excellent base to stay for a few days while you explore Canberra and surrounds, as it is an hour to the Nation’s capital. Sure, we can hear the highway and occasional trains as they go past on the main line but there are also plenty of bird calls and some neighbouring wallabies. There is a small creek on the boundary of the camping block that attracts birds but is not suitable for swimming. We have town water available for campers and toilet facilities are a short 400m walk to the middle of the village. The nearest dump point is 15 minutes away in the town of Yass. Winters are excellent for small fires for cooking and then putting another log on to enjoy the rest of the evening under the stars. We have dedicated fire pits or you can use your own. As an added bonus, there are metal sculptures dotted around the block created by the host. Each site is spacious enough for up to 4 vans if you are travelling in a group. It is easy to navigate through the trees and use it as a drive through.

Country Journey, Boxgrove farm

With over 600 acres of Australian bush, our property is ideal for campers that want their own space. We are completely off-grid (no wifi to distract you) and we run off tank water (for this reason showers are only available for two hours in the evening). There are multiple camp sites on the property - some are close to hot showers and toilets, others are within a short walking distance. Some sites are perfect for our self sufficient campers who might want a nice private location and don't need access to amenities. There are two shared camp kitchen areas (with pizza ovens and bbqs). We have two amenities blocks with toilets and hot showers and two further compost toilets located at other sites. Campfires are permitted in designated areas (check with us when booking) and firewood can be added to your booking - we do require at least 24 hours notice if you want wood. There are lots of old-style games for the kids such as cricket, tennis, playground, bikes available, a swim in the dam and general country running around fun! Unfortunately we no longer have our flying fox, but there are plenty of other activities to keep you busy. We have some great bush walking areas where you might be lucky enough to see our resident wombats or our breeding pair of Wedge-tailed Eagles. The property dates back to the early 1900s and there are numerous historic buildings on the property. The earliest is a wooden slab hut that was built around the beginning of the 19th century - the Goulburn Penny Post newspaper, dated 3 December 1904 lines the walls of the hut. It also has a two shearing stand wooden shed built by Marcus Dawe in 1922. We try to make sure all of our guests have a great experience - so if you have any special requests reach out to us and have a chat!
