Hi everyone and welcome to our home — the very special Platypus Bush Camp.
Operating for over 40 years, this bush camp and rainforest retreat is often described as one of Australia’s most unique stays — and it really does feel that way. With a blend of rustic rainforest charm, a touch of Asia and South America in its building style, and a good dose of Aussie humour and hospitality, it’s a place that feels timeless.
Four clear creeks flow all year into an absolutely stunning swimming hole, the largest and deepest in Finch Hatton Gorge.
The camp facilities are off-grid but offer powered sites. You’ll find all the modern comforts: flushing toilets, beautiful hot showers with rainforest views, large camp kitchens with everything you need (including a pizza oven and USB charging ports), and peaceful dining areas where you can hear the creek.
Accommodation options:
– Powered or unpowered sites to suit all setups — some with private decks overlooking the creek, some shaded, some sunny for solar.
– Tent-only sites on the grassy area near the main fire pit (no vehicles on the grass; parking close by).
– Three private creekside huts/treehouses with stunning views, comfy beds, and full bedding.
Visit our website to view the full range of accommodation options and the latest site updates.
Pets are welcome if well behaved and cleaned up after.
There’s a central fire pit with seating and a cooking plate, plus an undercover fireplace and dining area for rainy nights. You’re also welcome to bring your own fire pit.
We’re in the Pioneer Valley, just outside Mackay, Queensland, 2 km from Finch Hatton Gorge in Eungella National Park — about 1 hour from Mackay or 2 hours from Airlie Beach along a beautiful drive.
Two or three nights is ideal to explore the Gorge, Eungella National Park, and still have time to relax.
We look forward to meeting you,

Mighty Fungi Farm is a 24-acre working farm set in nature, where mushrooms, regeneration, and big ideas are quietly taking root.
Our land includes an active mushroom operation, orchard plantings, open grass fields, and a peaceful dam. We’re building an eco-conscious space focused on mushroom cultivation, biochar, composting, land restoration, and sustainable farming practices.
We’ve recently relocated and are very much in a building and growing phase. That means guests will experience a real working farm in progress — sheds, shelters, and visitor areas are evolving, and each visit becomes part of the story. If you enjoy authentic places, hands-on learning, and watching something meaningful take shape, you’ll feel right at home here.
🌱 Your Host & Vision
Your host, Brent, has lived in Australia for over 25 years and brings a deep background in conservation. He previously served as Vice President of the Kariba Wildlife Society in Africa, working in rhino protection, vegetation management, and long-term conservation programs.
The long-term vision for Mighty Fungi Farm is to become a nature-based education and retreat space, featuring:
Mushroom and native plant trails
Wildlife observation and quiet nature areas
Catch-and-release fishing at the dam
Regenerative land practices in action
Simple, welcoming RV and camping spots for travellers
🍄 Join the Journey
Mighty Fungi Farm isn’t polished — it’s alive, evolving, and grounded. We invite guests who enjoy sharing space, respecting nature, learning along the way, and soaking up good, down-to-earth fungi vibes.
Come camp, slow down, connect with the land, and be part of something growing 🌾✨

I love that you have to whole place to yourself and that the water is just a short walk away. We loved it so much we have already rebooked.

We loved staying Platypus Bush Camp site 4 with our two dogs. The layout was ideal to give people the feeling of seclusion as the creek running drowned out noises and there was plenty of areas to walk around and spend time in the creek alone, or you could choose to cook with other campers in the communal kitchen. It was a perfect spot.

Booked a spur of the moment night away camping with my dog and really glad I did. Nice walks to explore along the creeks, and the private dam was full and a great place to relax and switch off a bit with minimal mobile reception. Recommend checking out the lookout as well.

It was absolutely fantastic, a suprisingly very Built up camp, with a wonderful camp kitchen/area, clean toilets, and a hot shower with a spectacular view!, not to mention the huts which looked fantastic, as well as the flowing creek for a lovely refreshing swim
Shane is absolutely lovely and super accommodating and helpful
If you are ever in the area (or not. It’s worth the drive) staying here is a must

Awesome! Very accomodating host and phenominal spot along the beach. We had the place to ourselves (thanks to TC Koji), and we spent our days exploring the beach with our dogs. Paul came to check on us throughout the stay (probably thought we were a little looney) and brought his own dogs around for a play as well. All in all a lovely stay

Feels a million miles away from the cares of the world, but conveniently close to Sarina and Mackay if needed. Was good to have a single site camp to ourselves. Is in a rural lifestyle area, so heard mowers and dogs barking in the distance, but no real concern. Is a good spot if birding is your thing as there is a variety of habitats, increasing the variety of birds seen and heard.

Loved our stay at Tide Water Park.
The drive in through mobs of cattle & pretty paddocks was very scenic.
Nice camp-site in the bush with a walk way to the beach close by.
Paul was great, visited us late afternoon & offered to take us on a turtle tour. In the ute we went & up the beach he took us with his dogs to the turtles swimming in the shallows.
Such a shame we had crap weather, but we still enjoyed. We will be back if we're ever down this way again.
Thanks Paul.

Easy access, absolutely beautiful location, plenty of things to do. Great access to creek and some good beach driving. Paul is a top bloke, very helpful and good for a yarn. We have already picked out our next site for when we return which will be very soon. Not over crowded, each site is isolated and the whole place perfectly quiet.

Beautiful secluded beach which is great to explore at low tide. Paul drove us down to the rock pools to see the resident turtles which was an incredible experience to be so close to them. He's a legendary host!
Camping spot was great behind the sand dunes so you get great protection from the elements while still being on the beach. Such a special location. We will be back for sure!

★★★★★ A NYE I’ll Never Forget at Mighty Fungi Farm
What began as a one-night stopover on my way home to Brisbane from a Christmas road trip to Cairns turned into one of the most memorable New Year’s experiences I’ve had.
From the moment I arrived, my dogs and I were welcomed like family. I set up a beautiful camp with my hammock tent and dry tent, tucked into the riverbed between a lone mango tree, the dam, and the creek (which becomes a river in the wet season). It was peaceful, grounding, and absolutely stunning.
With a cup of mushroom coffee in hand, Brent generously took me on a tour of the farm—through the mango orchards, hay fields, and along the creek lines—sharing stories of the land and its rhythms. The weather was perfect, the vibe was warm and relaxed, and before I knew it, I decided to stay on for New Year’s Eve.
NYE itself was magic: friends and family, a BBQ, karaoke, laughter, and that rare feeling of being exactly where you’re meant to be. Mighty Fungi Farm isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience rooted in connection, nature, and genuine hospitality.
I can’t recommend it highly enough and I’m already looking forward to my next road trip north and another visit back to this special farm. 🌱✨

Paul and Clare were incredibly welcoming hosts. We had our own private beach for the night, and my wife couldn't stop raving about Clare's fresh eggs! Perfect spot if you want an off-grid beach adventure.
