Mount Morgan is situated on the Dee River, 38 km south of Rockhampton, and is an old gold mining town with lots of history and two museums, a railway and a town history museum. There are plenty of lookouts to see out over the town and the mine site. The Number 7 Dam, has walking and mountain bike tracks for beginners and the more advanced. We have 6 listings available at Meyenburg B&B Glamping, 2 tent sites for campers and 6 Tents which have linen included and creature comforts. All our listings have access to toilet and amenities. Pets are welcome but must be kept on a leash and cleaned up after. Mount Morgan was a mining town. Mining of clay in a nearby hill for the production of furnace bricks continuing until the early 1900s, the resulting man-made caves came to be known as the Fireclay Caverns, which contained large openings that measure between 4–12 metres in height from the cave floor. Dinosaur footprints (preserved as infills) were later found in nine different sections of the Caverns, lining the ceiling dated to the Early Jurassic. There is also a community swimming pool, skate park and general playground near the Dee River on Butler St. The town has three pubs, an IGA, and a small general store directly across the street from the camp site. The Grand Hotel is the oldest pub, and is still trading in town.

Our little slice of paradise is 25 acres, about 8 minutes from Yeppoon's beautiful beaches and islands, and 35 minutes from Byfield's rainforest! Situated up a sealed asphalt driveway on a hill you can see the ocean and islands in the distance to the East and Byfield Ranges to the North. With the elevation a steady Easterly breeze off the ocean most of the year it keeps the property a nice temperature, almost as if you are right on the beach. We have a range of native local wildlife roaming around, from green tree frogs to cockatoos, parrots to lizards, Goannas to wallabies. When it comes to flora there is about 15 acres of the place which has never been cleared, containing ironbark, lemon scented gums, stringybark, and wattle trees among various other shrubs. Being situated at the end of a no through road you don't need to worry about a noisy highway or road, all you will hear is nature and the environment. We allow small campfires (outside of fire-bans) but please be respectful and utilise the two firepits provided. Dogs are also allowed as long as they are kept on a lead, and are friendly to others as we also have 3 dogs in our yard. With plenty of space between sites there's no need to be worried about being jam packed in like a caravan park. That's one thing we aim to avoid. Our property is a work in progress. Having purchased it 5 years ago as a very baron and blank canvas we now have over 20 varieties of fruit trees planted over the last few years, with countless days and weeks spent landscaping, gardening and spreading topsoil for lawns. Its still far from perfect but its something we love and want to share. There is just over 1 km of smooth gravel road to our turn off, but our driveway is sealed with asphalt and moderately steep. 2WD vehicles can make it up, it just requires a little momentum. However if you are towing anything substantial you will require a 4WD. The two sites are right up the top of the hill, but still suitable for larger vans (over 20ft) and small busses - provided the towing vehicles etc. are okay with climbing the driveway.

A quiet rural location on flat ground with camping within the cleared bushland setting, or open orchard. Multiple shaded areas, and plenty of open areas to recharge the solar batteries. Sealed road right up to the property. Google maps will get you there. Look for the driveway with the Thyme Travellers signs and flag. We are 10klm from the beaches of Emu Park on main highways - 14klm to Yeppoon, 30klm to Rockhampton and only 4klm to the outdoor Tree House Tavern in Cawarral where you can have lunch in the beer garden with a drink or 2. A 15 minute drive will get you to the marina where you can catch the ferry to Great Keppel Island where you swim and snorkel with the dolphins and turtles or just marvel at the abundance of fish and marine life. On our property, fire pits are provided free of charge for quiet nights under the stars. Bags of split fire wood can be purchased from the office. 3 covered camp kitchens, with free gas BBQ, are located within easy access to wherever you camp. Different varieties of chickens are located around the property, within their own yards, and hens free range after 2 pm ( our 1 remaining rooster is caged ) with gentle Clydesdale and Percheron heavy horses, Australian Lowline (miniature cows), Pygmy, and Nigerian Dwarf goats to pat. Self shedding sheep spot the property. Permanent shower block with 2 separate gas hot water showers - with further basic shower units dotted about should you not wish to walk to the central showers, but with good pressure and gas hot water. Permanent flushing toilets. Portaloos are also dotted around the property. Pet friendly, but must be on a lead due to livestock. Potable water, but no hook ups to vans due to high pressure pumps. We a still a work in progress - adding further environmentally friendly amenities, more fruit trees, purchased with the recycled bottles and cans, and a playground to come. Having only opened to the public in April 2024. NO electricity available. Office is located at the far end of the driveway into the property. Although we are only small - we are still a working farm - meaning that sometimes - we are not on call all the time. Please be patient - we will return your messages when time permits - Thankyou

Imagine having access to a 4-acre campsite all to yourself, with views of the mountain ranges and kangaroos and birdlife to greet you in the mornings—all just minutes from the beach! And yes, it’s dog-friendly! Escape at Agnes is a 4-acre property featuring beautiful gum trees, a dam, and plenty of space for a boat, large caravan, or camper. The site has no amenities, so you’ll need to be fully self-contained/off-grid, and remember to take all waste with you—leaving without a trace. There are several areas to set up camp, though we think the best spots are on the topside of the block overlooking the dam. For local attractions, dining, and dog-friendly beaches and cafés, check out: visitagnes1770.com.au Distances to key spots: 5 minutes to Ever Fresh IGA 8 minutes to the Visitor Information Centre 9 minutes to Agnes Main Beach 7 minutes to the Agnes Tavern 13 minutes to the 1770 Marina and boat ramp 16 minutes to Seventeen Seventy

We have 55 acres of paddocks plus dams 10 minutes from Rockhampton City. We are 1 km from the Fitzroy River with boat access and fishing. A lovely, quiet spot with amazing sunsets. We've just opened a new toilet and shower block providing a relaxing space to wash off the dust after a day on the road. There is plenty to do in the area from fishing, cycling and rowing to relaxing with a book beside your own campfire (available depending on fire season/fire risk and in discussion with host). Horses, dogs and chickens reside here. Fresh farm eggs available.

15 sites · Tents, RVs · Rockhampton, QLD
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 or stock up firewood if we are able. 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. The closest free dump point is located at the Information Centre on Gladstone Rd in 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. Unfortunately due to people leaving rubbish in multiple old fire sites making it unsafe to slash and causes damage to our expensive equipment, we have had to go to a communal fire pit. 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 (refund provided in this case).
