'Weefarm' is situated on a picturesque bend of the Brisbane River near Fernvale and is accessible by 4WD only. Kids are free to 17 so if you have children between 12-17, please include them in the "children" booking.
We provide an exclusive booking for you on absolute river frontage for tents and camper trailers.
Spend your time swimming, fishing, canoeing or simply sipping a cold drink on the pontoon under the umbrella. With an easterly aspect you’ll want to spend the morning swimming or exploring the riverscape and when the afternoon shade sets in light the campfire and put your feet up.
Please note... our campsite has been ongoing since 2017 and campers have kindly shared their many happy memories. Over the years, things change. Please take the photos lightly.
There is no vehicular boat ramp but still excellent access for other small watercraft. Due to the steep track to the camp area we insist on 4WD’s only - though you can walk down if feeling energetic!
Please bring drinking water and a desire to leave the riverside just as you found it. We have enough room for around 20 people in tents or camper trailers.
Portaloo toilet available at the campsite.
Campfires are permitted in the circle but please be mindful of any restrictions. You can purchase firewood from us if needed.
Dogs are also welcome but must stay with you at all times. Please let us know they are coming as well.

Exclusive private site on our 80acre WORKING* property just off the Warrego Highway at Haigslea.
*(Please note as we are 1km off the highway there is subsequent highway noise, we are immune to it, but as anything, some people may notice more than others.)
We are a working small rural property so with that comes seasonal tractor work/trucks and an element of busy, depending on what projects are on the go! Real taste of rural life while being smack bang in the privacy and serenity of our buzzing property!
Private gate access for self check in and checkout.
The large campsite is located alongside our 14 acre dam with a pontoon and dam banks to explore.
The site is flat and mowed with easy access from the road for caravans.
The dam is perfect to launch a SUP/ canoe out on, float around on floaties and spot some turtles or eels.
Great to swim in/ try your luck with a fishing rod, but NO JUMPING from the pontoon as water levels vary and submerged debris/ trees etc. (common sense swimming in dam and water sources.)
The pontoon is perfect for evening sunsets (or a sneaky proposal, which has happened a few times already!)
** Please be very conscious of deciding to camp with children in close proximity to an open water source. Safety is our highest priority.
The campsite is bordered by seasonal crops.
We also have Cattle that rotate through different paddocks on the property, depending on feed and crop cycles. (Not all guests will have cattle about sorry kiddies!)
**Pets welcome, but to remain under STRICT supervision. Not to chase cattle or wildlife. **
Our property is also home to the local remote controlled airplane club.
Guests will be able to see and hear them buzzing around of a weekend. You can watch from the campsite but we ask not to walk through the paddocks or approach the club.
During weekday stays (and some weekends) you will have the pleasure to see fighter aircraft, KC-30s and the impressive C17 Globe masters doing some low flying and pass overs as we are just on the edge of the Amberley RAAF Base circuit area.
This campsite suits self-contained campers who bring their own camping shower, and drinking water supply.
A basic long drop outhouse is set up for guest use.
Fire pit and picnic table for use. Firewood able to be purchased

Phenomenal campsite with full privacy, fully functioning toilet/ shower and immaculate surroundings. The hosts were very personable and responsive. The campsite is close to Dayboro for any essentials you may have forgotten. Absolutely loved our time there and so lucky to have beautiful weather.

The campsite couldn’t have been better. The water had a perfect mix of shallow and deeper spots, making it ideal for swimming and canoeing. Waking up to a surprise visit from the cows in the morning made it even more special — the kids had an unforgettable time!

Sarabah Creek Camping is honestly one of the most amazing spots we’ve stayed at. It’s so close to the Gold Coast, yet it feels completely peaceful and secluded.
The campground is beautiful, it was incredible to fall asleep to the sound of the water and the creek was so fresh to swim in. The site feels very private, the bathroom was clean and it was easy to access the campsite!!
You can tell a lot of care goes into maintaining the grounds and making sure guests have a great stay.
Sarabah Creek Camping is an absolute gem. We’ll definitely be back!

Great camping and really secluded and a beautiful place. Very helpful hosts and responsive.
It is defiantly 4WD only due to the entry to the site which makes it more exclusive.

We had the pleasure of meeting our host, Ryan, who was both warm and welcoming. His knowledge of the area and its history was impressive, and his passion for the land was truly evident. The care and dedication he puts into maintaining the HiCamp site really stood out.
The location itself was wonderful, offering the serenity and natural beauty of the Australian bush. We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the sense of having the space entirely to ourselves.
We would happily recommend this HiCamp to anyone seeking a relaxing and private retreat. Thank you, Ryan, for a memorable stay.

Thank you Ryan & family for sharing your property. The facilities were clean & the very large grass area mowed & well maintained. We camped during a bit of a heatwave & were grateful for the shower to have a quick cool off. Friendly cows, little pggies & even a field mouse visited. Will be back & looking forward to seeing the creek flowing. Easy directions to follow & quick trip into Dayboro if you need anything or just want to support the lovely little township.

Josh and Bonnie's site is fantastic and exactly as advertised. We loved the nice flat sites and enjoyed our time swimming to avoid the heat. The private site feels totally disconnected and was very well kept.

Such a beautiful spot to camp. Wide open field with lovely green grass overlooking the creek. The site was private, quiet and spacious with a ready to go fire pit and the toilet was very clean and a very handy and welcomed addition. The creek had a lovely deep swimming hole to cool down in as well as rocky shallows and mini rapids for the kids to play in. The star attraction though, was waking up to the cows roaming through the campsite. Such a fun experience for the kids. We are already booking to come back!

The jetty area is great and river is great for a fish or kayak / canoe adventure!

We had an amazing time staying at Site 3. Easy to get to with good directions. Remote enough to feel like you are away from it all, but close enough to town if you need anything. Loved swimming in the creek and waking up one morning with the cows right across the creek. Sites are all very well spaced apart. Will definitely come back.
