Access to Grass Trees is via Corfield Drive, the first right after the Eco Camp turnoff. Feeling adventurous? There’s also a rugged walking track from Eco Camp to the Grass Trees pool—perfect for a scenic hike. Whether you're after mountain-top serenity or a laid-back bush retreat, 1770 Eco Camp and Grass Trees Campground invite you to slow down, explore, and reconnect with the wild.

Rockhampton, QLD · 6 sites · Tents, RVs

Our property is roughly 80 acres of secluded land situated on the outskirts of Rockhampton. Only a 5 minute drive to the Gracemere shopping centre, and less than 10 minutes to Rockhampton. Deadman's Lagoon is a large freshwater lagoon situated in the centre of our hay farm. It is perfect for swimming, fishing, boating and kayaking. It is a permanent lagoon, however water levels are affected by the amount of local rainfall and are naturally lower in the winter months. Camp along the bank of the lagoon dotted with gum trees, or choose a wide open space in the paddock. Bird life including pelicans, black swans, bustards, ducks and egrets are frequently spotted enjoying the water. You will have plenty of privacy as there is no residence on the farm, and the neighbours are some distance away. You may notice us coming throughout the day for general farm duties. We ask that guests stay out of our paddocks and only drive on the road to and from the campground. We'll often drop in to camp to say hello if you happen to be there while we are working. Campers must be fully self-contained as no facilities or drinking water are available on the property. You are responsible for taking any and all rubbish with you when you leave. Dumping of toilets and human waste on the property is strictly prohibited. There are dump points in both Gracemere and Rockhampton. We can accommodate for up to 6 caravans/campers at a time spread out over our campground area which is roughly 5 acres. You are welcome to set up wherever you like within our campground, whether it be along the bank of the lagoon or in the paddock. Please be respectful of others' space when deciding where to set up your camp. We currently have 3 fire pits in the campgrounds, all fires must be kept within the rock rings, or you can bring your own raised fire pit if you prefer. Dogs welcome, we just ask that you clean up after them so that the campsite remains clean for other campers to enjoy. There is a dog pen you are welcome to use. The roads on the property can become boggy in wet weather, and in the case of excessive rainfall we may need to cancel your booking (full refund provided in this case). The lagoon is prone to flooding in the summer months and we often need to close the campground after a big rain event.
