Weekend Trip to Barrine Farmstay And Camping

Lovely spot to stay the night at after platypus hunting in Yungaburra. Basic facilities but fitting with the vibe, very peaceful and loved being able to see the goats and chicks in the morning!

Weekend Trip to Tully Mountain ⛰️ Views

We stayed at site 4: The Views. Absolutely perfect with 2 little kids. They loved the horses being so close and it was an easy and relaxing sight for us. Sheree is so welcoming and gave us some great places to explore the area! I’m still amazed this is in her backyard!

Gorgeous property with everything you need. So close to Alligators Nest for a lovely cold swim. Sheree was a great host. And the beautiful mare who licks your face was so sweet, even as her foal was feeding! Thanks Sheree

Weekend Trip to Tropical Woopen Creek Camping

Stunning location, beautifully managed with gorgeous surrounds. I even got a luxurious massage off Miyuki-the owner. We DEFINITELY plan to come back (if there’s ever a vacancy - it’s generally booked up). Great weekend.

Weekend Trip to Three Falls Holiday Millaa Millaa

Great site - especially for children! Our preschool aged children enjoyed feeding the chickens and spotting for wildlife at night (though they were too loud to see much!) I was incredibly impressed that there were no mosquitos!!! Shame we only had one night - but it was worth it and the area surrounding is beautiful - stunning waterfalls, and they’re quiet with no other visitors first thing in the morning!

It was wonderful! 10/10! I loved waking up to see the baby fole on the horse patch and the swing into the creek was fun too!!

1 night at Mareeba Caravan Park

Great location set on 150 bush acres, lots to see and do on the property and Granite Gorge is just down the road and we'll worth visiting
