1 night at Ahana Hillside

We loved staying here, Kanwal made sure we had everything we needed and more (fresh coconuts for example). The amenities are undergoing a big overhaul which is nice, the shower is already new. The ambience was great. All you could hear at night were the animals out in the forest, we had hoped to see some but weren‘t as lucky. Tip: bring a torch if you don‘t want to step on a toad when you go to the toilet at night.

Cool Clean & Green in Julatten!

5 sites · RVs61 acres · Julatten, QLD

Juliet and Grant have been custodians since 2003, in that time we've built a house, raised a family and now that Alex and Hayley are both at University, life has become a little quieter, (not so sure if we like the quiet though!) Now we've only just started with Hipcamp, we do have a lot to discover, happy to listen and learn. We do offer plenty of space and you will not be crowded out as we keep numbers very limited. No facilities, no toilets, showers, electricity, rubbish bins etc. We do ask that you respect this as you must be fully self contained. We do not consider, a bucket with a lid, to be self contained ok!
