Caravan parks near Daintree

·

A small, rural town along Daintree River and a protected rainforest, Daintree is a prime stop on a Queensland caravan camping trip. Daintree National Park comprises two distinct areas, which include Mossman Gorge’s dense rainforest along the Main Coast Range and Cape Tribulation’s lowland rainforest, sand beaches, and rugged, hilly landscapes. Go boating and fishing to see marine life and the world-renowned Great Barrier Reef, then find a nearby caravan campsite with flush toilets, potable water, and hot showers. Mowbray National Park lies within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area and prominently features the mysterious Black Mountain, known as Australia's "Bermuda Triangle." Walking, biking, and horseback riding tracks lead through the park’s eucalypt forest and tropical rainforest. Caravan campgrounds can be found close by with potable water, communal fire areas, and pull-through campsites. A paradise for four-wheel driving, Mount Lewis National Park lies south of Daintree with an adventurous path up the eponymous mountain. Stay at a caravan park after a day of adventure—look out for one providing toilets, potable water, and off-leash pet areas.

Our private tropical oasis, on the doorstep of the Daintree Rainforest has seen many guests return year after year to enjoy this perfect piece of paradise. With our exciting changes, we look forward to seeing the resort evolve from a sleepy caravan park, to a vibrant resort style property with a variety of accommodation options, food and beverage offerings, new and improved facilities plus a new resort style pool and beach bar which we are hoping to confirm in 2025. In May 2024, we completed the first of our glamping pavilions. These pavilions have allowed us to provide our first step of offering a variety of accommodation options for our discerning guests. This project received tourism grant funding from the Australian Government, which has allowed us to expand on our original concept and has made the glamping pavilions really quite special. Our amenity buildings have undertaken a fresh makeover which now provides state of the art washing machines and dryers with tap and go payment options - no need for coins. A vending machine for that late afternoon or evening snack, immaculately clean bathrooms and a camp kitchen with shared facilities for those campers who like to do their own thing. Our Food & Beverage van is now open and offers a variety of food choices. Open daily from 12pm to 8.00pm (season dependent) we invite our guests and locals to come and enjoy our beautiful park setting.

Wake up to sweeping paddock views and wander through a shaded fruit tree orchard before the day begins. Perched above a scenic headland on the edge of Far North Queensland's tropical hinterland, this farm retreat puts you deep in the landscape — without the crowds. Follow the headland trail down to a winding saltwater creek framed by mangroves and native birdlife. It's a stunning spot to explore from the bank — just keep in mind that crocodiles inhabit the waterway, so swimming isn't possible. Every site has its own individual water tap, so you're never hauling jerry cans across a paddock. Getting out and about is effortless from here: Rocky Point Beach is just 3.5 km away, the charming town of Mossman is a 10-minute drive north, Port Douglas is 25 minutes south, and the iconic Daintree Ferry crossing is only 20 minutes away — making this the perfect base for day trips into one of the world's oldest rainforests.

Bring your tent, car, caravan or motor home...... there is plenty of room! The Meadow is located in a sleepy little rural area at the end of a road, so there is no through traffic and quite private. There is an abundance of wild life wandering through from the rainforest to the neighboring cattle property including a huge range of birds, numerous wallaby's, and the occasional cassowary. I do have a couple of resident cows on the property. Stewie is extremely friendly and will come to the fence for a pat and will love you even more if you feed him a slice of bread or a carrot. He has no spacial awareness though, so please don’t enter his paddock….. it is pretty scary having a 600kg “puppy” with very big horns bounding toward you wanting to play! The water is tank/bore which is fine for drinking and I am happy for you to fill your water tanks during your stay but I do ask that you use it sparingly…….. no washing of vehicles or vans please 🙏 With only 1 site, you will absolutely not be crowded in. There are no toilet or shower facilities available so you will need to be fully self contained. This is the perfect base to explore all that the Daintree, Port Douglas and Atherton Tablelands areas have on offer. Julatten Hotel is a great spot for a cold drink and a lovely meal, with live music on the weekends. 9 Mile Store is 2km from your site and has fuel, some groceries items and takeaway food if you don’t feel like cooking. Mossman is only 18km away for most other supplies and services.
