Buxton Bush Retreat is a privately owned parcel of 17 acres located 7 kilometers (6 minute drive) from the quaint seaside village of Buxton.
The front 5 acres is 'home' to Kerrie and Brian, their two puppies (Jazz and Jaxi) and two cats (Bangers and Mash).
The remainder of the property (about 12 acres) comprises of flat, well grassed areas and natural bushland.
There are eight(8) well maintained, large, flat camping areas and each has its own fire pit. An initial supply of firewood will be provided.
There is no water or power throughout these camping areas, hence they are only suitable for "fully self contained" motor homes and caravans.
Apart from humans, dogs and cats, the property is inhabited by kangaroos and a variety of birdlife.
The small township of Buxton is home to a mixture of permanent residents and holiday homes. There is one general store which sells most consumables, including alcohol. They also serve up meals every Wednesday. Buxton has a great little boat ramp on the Isis River which provides easy access for river fishing or to the Coral Sea for ocean fishing.
So, if you're looking for a clean, comfortable QUIET and relaxing campsite with not too many people around then Buxton Bush Retreat many be just the place for you. No 'midges' or sand flies or dirt/sand camping sites .... all sites are flat and fully grassed and maintained.

Our property is situated on the banks of the great sandy strait just 400m from the Tuan Boat ramp with access to Fraser Island by boat or kayak. We are surrounded by Tuan State Forest and wetlands. There is a medium sized dam on the property for swimming.The Tuan Forshore has a park, BBQ area and picnic tables as well as garbage disposal.
There is plenty of space in the surrounding forests for mountain biking, motor-biking and walking. 3km down the road in Boonooroo you will find a large park with tennis court and public BBQ's. The bowls club and Golf Club just 3km away and serve meals on weekends.
This site is suitable for caravans, RV's, camper trailers. There is NO toilet facility on the property. We are VERY dog friendly and can be off lead as long as the dogs are friendly towards people and other dogs and don't bite our horses. We also have other peoples horses agisting in paddocks. Activities you can do include boating, kayaking, swimming, fishing, crabbing, walking, stand up paddle boarding, bird watching, kangaroo spotting, playing in the parks, beach tennis, mountain biking, hiking etc.
Camp sites are far from the main house and other sites so you can have camp fires and play music, use generators without worry.
Campers will need to be self contained (rubbish and toilets) and please leave your campsite the way you found it. Don't leave toilet paper or rubbish in fire pits please.
Enter / Exit the main gate by pushing the code into the key pad. Gate closes after 20 seconds once it is fully open so be quick.
NOTE: ***During Summer- November, December, January and February there are midgees (sandflies) at dusk and dawn and we do recommend midgee screening or spraying the mesh on your caravan windows as the standard mozzie mesh will not keep them out. Bring coils, a fan as they hate any breeze, bug spray and long sleeved pants and tops to wear in the evenings from about 5pm-7pm!***
*4X4's are recommended if you don't stay along the fence line as it can get muddy if there has been lots of rain. If you stay along the fence line you will be fine as the roads are compact and hard and the camp sites along this fence are higher up, they are marked with Fire Pits so camp here if you want to stay dry and get a good breeze.*

What a beautiful spot it is. Janine was very welcoming, offering fresh farm eggs, bringing extra cable to connect to the power, gifting bubbles and lending push bikes to the kids. There are few animals and hundreds of birds, it feels very serene and connected to the nature. They left wood fire for us to use. Overall it was a beautiful spot. We would love to come here again.

We stayed at a Hipcamp just outside Hervey Bay and thoroughly enjoyed the calm, secluded setting. The campsite is nestled within a beautifully curated garden, complete with sculptures and a tranquil dam, creating an almost idyllic place to rest and reset.
Kym is a warm and genuinely caring host who has clearly put a lot of thought into the space. It feels welcoming without being intrusive, striking the perfect balance for a hosted stay. The location is ideal, only a short drive to Hervey Bay and perfectly positioned for trips over to K’gari, with shops, fuel and the barge all close by.
A lovely, peaceful stay that showcases exactly why Hipcamp experiences are so special. Highly recommended for those seeking quiet, character and thoughtful hosting.

What an amazing camp spot for self contained campers! There were others camping but the camp sites are so private and separated that you have complete privacy. The grounds are so beautifully maintained and had it been a cooler season we would have used the fire pit which was supplied with ample firewood to get us started. Perfect place to unwind and a great base to explore the local area. Perfect camp if you just want to set up and relax. Camp area 3 is more or less a circle with the fire pit in the middle, surrounded on all sides by trees. You could set up more or less in the shade or full sun depending on what your needs are. Highly recommend!

What a camp site! Only a few plots so it feels extremely remote. Janine was so friendly and helpful, evening brining me extra things such as mosquito repellent. The location is perfect and great if you’re getting to Hervey Bay. A very beautiful stay - I will be back!

Went there with our Hiace campervan. Great view of the pond. Had a fire. Woke up to the sound of the birds. Amazing. It was easy to find. Helpful owner and neighbour. Only thought is that I am not sure how the dirt driveway would hold up in wet weather for vans or larger. Other than that, would recommend it.
