The best camping near Crows Nest with a private bathroom

·

In Crows Nest, over 450 campsites come with toilets—a practical essential for anyone who doesn’t fancy roughing it. Prices average $42 a night, but you’ll find options dipping down to $10 if you book early or travel outside peak times. Campsites here sit near bushland creeks and wide paddocks, with locals often letting you greet their horses or bring your dog along. Showers are common, and you’ll spot plenty of sites where you can hike straight from your tent or caravan, cool off in a swimming hole, or saddle up for a trail ride. The top picks? Bares Hideaway (426 reviews) is known for its shady sites and quiet bush nights, while Rangetop Farm (382 reviews) lets you camp with views over rolling hills. For creek swimming and easy walks, Sandy Creek Camping (367 reviews) is a favourite. Bring your own supplies, and don’t expect city crowds—out here, you get the sounds of kookaburras at sunrise instead.

In Crows Nest, over 450 campsites come with toilets—a practical essential for anyone who doesn’t fancy roughing it. Prices average $42 a night, but you’ll find options dipping down to $10 if you book early or travel outside peak times. Campsites here sit near bushland creeks and wide paddocks, with locals often letting you greet their horses or bring your dog along. Showers are common, and you’ll spot plenty of sites where you can hike straight from your tent or caravan, cool off in a swimming hole, or saddle up for a trail ride. The top picks? Bares Hideaway (426 reviews) is known for its shady sites and quiet bush nights, while Rangetop Farm (382 reviews) lets you camp with views over rolling hills. For creek swimming and easy walks, Sandy Creek Camping (367 reviews) is a favourite. Bring your own supplies, and don’t expect city crowds—out here, you get the sounds of kookaburras at sunrise instead.
