Kolan River retreat is a wonderful place to stay and it’s very obvious the effort the owners have put into this property to make it very comfortable and convenient for campers. The facilities are fantastic, hot water showers and pump toilets which are so clean and well maintained. Boat ramp access is a bonus and the wildlife is abundant. Plenty of room in between camps and campfires are allowed. Our dog had a ball hanging out with the friendliest cows. We will be back for sure.
Thank you Peter and Melinda for our stay.

My partner and I loved camping on the river here with our 2 dogs. Peter was an absolute champion from the moment we met him. Showers and toilets are very clean. Great boat ramp aswell. Grassy clean sites with fire pits provided, cows roam the paddock and are so friendly. We will defiantly be back.

Lovely camp-site. Toilets and shower always kept very clean. Big open space. There were quite a few other campers but they were so far away it didnt matter.
Watching the bat migrations each night was surreal.
We didnt venture through the mangroves to swim/fish or go down to the boat ramp as most other campers had boats and we assumed it would be busy. But overall we had a lovely relaxing time. The dogs loved it.

Jess’s place is incredible. Jess is amazing, the place is so well kept, Kayaks for use, heaps fire wood dropped off for $10, lots fruits grown in the orchard and super friendly goats and animals to pat. The place is stunning, quiet and sheltered. Our dogs loved being able to swim, and having some privacy and quiet time was perfect. Will be visiting again!! There aren’t amenities yet, but worth the stop.

We stayed on a powered site with our caravan so we could enjoy the air conditioning. We had a fantastic stay and so did our 2.5-year-old, who absolutely loved the animals.
Susan was an amazing host — she showed us around and even let us help feed the animals. It was lovely chatting with her about the vision for their farm stay, and it’s clear this place is only going to get better and better. Highly recommend!

The land is beautiful, big open field with lots of places to camp. There is a small like you can fish in or sit out in a kayak and relax. We got lucky and had the whole area to ourselves but if you enjoy being around people and camp when others are there it seems like it’d be a lot of fun and not cramped at all. Jess the host was amazing, grows lots of exotic fruits and was very accommodating. 100% would recommend.
