Escape to the peace and quiet of Eco Farm Nature Retreat, a spacious bushland campsite just a short drive from Brisbane. Set on a working Permaculture farm surrounded by trees and open paddocks, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, listen to the birds and enjoy a slice of country life.
There’s plenty of room to spread out, whether you’re camping in a tent, van or camper trailer. Shady trees offer relief from the sun, and friendly farm animals often wander by to say hello. Evenings are best spent around the fire, watching the stars appear overhead – campfires are welcome when there’s no fire ban in place.
Guests must be fully self-contained, bringing their own water, toilet and supplies. Well-behaved pets are welcome too – just keep them under control around livestock and wildlife.
Eco Farm Nature Retreat is ideal for those who love simple, peaceful camping and want to reconnect with nature without the crowds. Bring your gear, your sense of adventure, and settle in for a quiet, relaxing stay under the gum trees.

We booked for damside Park 1,
And although the spot was beautiful, we felt our set-up and circumstances (toddler) would be better Suited further from the water.
Marcaus the host was extremely accomodating and took us up to the grassy spurs. It was perfect. An ideal amount of space and grass field for the kids to run around without the fear of water.
We went and paddled in the dam with the kayaks, did the goat feeding and also checked out the creek.
The track to the creek is a little overgrown, but don't let that stop you. The creek is INCREDIBLE. We hiked up it until we reached a waterhole and had a swim in the crystal clear waters there!
And the best part was, that we were able to enjoy this spot/trip with our dog Molly!
Ensure you have a capable 4x4 vehicle.
We will definitely be back in the future!
Thanks again Marcaus and family for having us. We had a fantastic time!

This is easily one of the most peaceful campsites I’ve stayed at. Surrounded by large trees and a small creek, it feels wonderfully secluded and calm. It’s nice and quiet in the mornings, except for birds singing. The occasional car passes by but the road isn’t busy at all. This camp is also nice and close to Ipswich.

Great campsite, nice and close to Brisbane so easy to get to. Enjoyed the 4WD track on the way in, was a bit of a challenge! Luckily we had a bit of rain so there was water in the creek and we got a swim.

Date palms camp ground is beautiful. Fully Grassed area lovely flat grounds perfect for caravans and roof top tents. Big spacious areas. We could easily fit 3 vans, 2 roof top tents and a tent with heaps of room to spare. Beautifully maintained. Kevin is an extremely nice guy, lovely to chat to. We had a bit of a storm come through and he was straight down to check everyone was ok. Each camp ground is very private and lots of space to spread out. Dam was beautiful for a lovely dip even got the paddleboards out! Highly recommended and we will definitely be back

We loved this campsite. It was so peaceful and very close to Brisbane. We camped by the creek which was full of frogs and small fish. In the evening we watched tawny frogmouths flying around while we sat by the fire. The site was nice and shady and still had access to solar. We will definitely be back and thank you to Kevin for looking after us.

We chose this Hipcamp for its easy access to Royal Brisbane's Women's Hospital. We weren't expecting it to be such a gorgeous little nook. Kevin, Debbie and Danni have created a beautiful native habitat and oasis on farmland with rich history just minutes from Ipswich. Complete with a trickling stream and abundant wildlife. My daughter loved patting the little calves and we had the option of both sunny and shaded sites where we could lay out our solar panels. We would have liked to have stayed longer. We will pop in again on our travels. This Hipcamp is only moments off the main road between Ipswich and Brisbane making it excellent for both short and long stays.

Great trip, so easy to get to from Brisbane so perfect for a Friday getaway. Well maintained spot, was greated by the owners and then had complete privacy for the rest of the time. The nearby creek was pretty but not quite deep enough to cool off however there are many rock pools and waterfalls 5mins up the road at cedar creek. Pups had a great time too. Thank you!

A peaceful spot with gorgeous views! The property is beautifully kept and the hosts are friendly and welcoming, but also give you privacy to enjoy your stay. The creek next to the site is so picturesque and great for a wander and cooling dip of your feet - if you want more of a swim, it’s only a short drive up the road to Cedar Creek Falls.
We stayed with a small group of friends and all of our dogs, and had such a relaxing time. We will be back! Thank you Clair and Andrew.

What a beautiful part of the world. Thank you Clair and Andrew for openjng it up for us. Clair and Andrew are amazing hosts. There is nothing to worry about, they have thought of everything. Access is easy, the camping spot beautiful. Truely nature lovers, the farm is great to wander through and the opportunity to enjoy a secluded part of Cedar Creek is very special. We took our doggos and they had the time of their lives.
Do yourself a favour and let Clair prepare a fresh vegetable box with eggs. All from the farm. Sigh, it was hard to leave. But luckily it so close to Brisbane well just have to come back.
