All of our camp sites are EXCLUSIVE unless you are travelling with others, you will have complete privacy and uninterrupted time during your stay at Francvillers.

The camping spot is right beside a dam/bore drain, with good access from the main road, wet weather permitting.
We have an endless supply of Gidgee wood around the camp spot, its the third densest wood in the world, which makes it the ultimate firewood for campers!
You can walk, bird watch, fish, swim or just sit back and soak up the country atmosphere.
For more information and property rules please refer to our website outbackescape.com
All campers must be self-sufficient and bring their own camping toilet.

I loved staying at the Lake Paddock camp site 2… the site is just beautiful, right on the lagoon, easily accessible in my 2WD station wagon. The baths are really something else, being able to bathe in aquifer water is really special, especially after a long drive. The bird life at the lagoon was spectacular. I highly recommend Sarah’s place and I hope to come back soon.

What a small touch of paradise. This is an outback experience everyone must do, laying back in a thermally heated, fresh water bath under a blanket of stars. Add your favourite drink and nibblies on the grazing board provided and you have shared memories that will last a life time. Thank you Sarah…. We loved it.

Amazing hosts and beautiful peaceful location. Our family of four loved the wood fired bath tubs and we selected the options to hire yabbie nets, firewood and half a dozen fresh eggs. We caught yabbies very quickly with the yabbie nets and cans of tuna we’d brought with us to use as bait. The amount of firewood at the site for $20 was very generous and it burnt very slowly so we had excess. Bring marshmallows to roast and enjoy the space and privacy this beautiful campsite offers.

Please note a 20 klms drive on an unmade road, very slow travel. Condition was pretty good but if rain could be a problem but Jane advised. Not a road to travel back to town, but once we were there wasn’t needed for our 2 nights. Couldn’t do better, just brilliant!
Initial entrance is a work in progress sites have new trees planted but many a year until any shade. Those sites weren’t very appealing. There was a sign for off road sites near river but didn’t get to see what like. Saw dust Toilet provided was immaculate especially for an outdoor toilet.
We stayed on sites numbered 14,15 & 16 which is the best. Totally off grid. Plenty of grass, few burrs!
Rates here was very reasonable. Plenty of wood on property to have a fire with which we loved.
Big river, 300m walk down an easily accessible bank, only 1 spot right on bank to fish and sit in a chair. River is beautiful, Fishing is great if lucky.
Thanks heaps Jane, loved our stay.

The best camping near Cunnamulla guide
Where to go
Charlotte Plains
Book a camping spot at Charlotte Plains Station, where artesian bore water is piped into outdoor bathtubs, known as bore baths. Unpowered and powered sites offer bush camping in a natural bushland setting, plus self-contained accommodations are available in the Shearers Quarters. Besides bathing in mineral-rich waters, birdwatching and kayaking are popular activities at this Outback Australian sheep station.
Currawinya National Park
Almost 200 kilometres southwest of Cunnamulla is Currawinya National Park, part of the mulga lands fed by Paroo River. Walking trails wind alongside lakes and wetlands where abundant birdlife is attracted to the natural water source. Bush camping sites accessible by 4WD vehicles and camper trailers can be pre-booked through the Queensland National Parks website.
St George
East of Cunnamulla lies the town of St George, the regional centre of the shire and a great place to reprovision with essential supplies before continuing into the Outback.
When to go
The Cunnamulla climate is generally hot and dry year-round, with the mildest temperatures occurring between April and October. Storms and heavy rain may roll through during summer, with minor flooding having the potential to cut access to towns or stations. Always keep an eye on weather forecasts.
Know before you go
- Each August, the Cunnamulla Festival is an annual celebration of Outback Australia.
- Surf the Cunnamulla sand dunes 850 km from the sea.
- Get a taste of Australian Outback life by participating in sheep shearing or cattle mustering.
- Drivers in Outback Australia should be aware of hazards such as roaming livestock and long distances between refuelling stops.
- Fresh drinking water from rain-filled tanks is precious and may be sourced from some holiday parks or stations.
- Cunnamulla was once immortalised by Aussie icon Slim Dusty, whose song “Cunnamulla Fella” is honoured with a larger-than-life statue in the centre of town.
