Welcome to my Hipcamp! Beautiful camping area situated next to the Elliott River. 10 minutes drive to Coonarr Beach, Coonarr Wildflowers and Kinkuna National Park. Amazing Stargazing! Just a kilometer up the road from our site, you'll find a charming Dog Motel. Please keep in mind that the noise from the dog motel isn't a nightly occurrence, making it difficult to predict specific nights when it may be more active. However I've noticed that campers in caravans generally have a more insulated experience and are less affected by any early morning barking. If you prefer a quieter spot, I make it a priority to assign campers the farthest firepit, Camp 4, nestled deep in the bush, providing you with a peaceful retreat away from any noise. Additionally I'm delighted to offer electricity to all camps, ensuring your comfort and convenience during your stay. Whether you choose a campsite closer to the amenities or opt for the tranquility of Camp 4, rest assured that you'll have access to electricity. While the dog motel may occasionally add a touch of canine charm to the soundscape, I'm confident that the overall experience at my Hipcamp will be an enjoyable one. Come join me amidst the beauty of nature and let the peaceful surroundings outweigh any sporadic noises from our furry friends. Campsites can be 30m from amenities (toilet & shower). Dog friendly. Drinking water & camp kitchen available. Kangaroo are known to feed on the grass in this campsite. Perfect base for a visit to Bundaberg or an east coast trip. Great for a bigger group with different spaces and communal area.

Weekend Trip to Woodlands Farmstay and Glamping

We stayed on a powered site with our caravan so we could enjoy the air conditioning. We had a fantastic stay and so did our 2.5-year-old, who absolutely loved the animals. Susan was an amazing host — she showed us around and even let us help feed the animals. It was lovely chatting with her about the vision for their farm stay, and it’s clear this place is only going to get better and better. Highly recommend!

4 nights at Rules Beach Turtles Bushcamp🐢

Nicky was a great host and has an excellent property for off grid camping. Lots of sites for big vans and only 5 kms from the beach.

Weekend Trip to Reed's Residence

The location is very quiet and as it had been raining very green and lush. Nigel is very friendly and has big plans for the camp and we wish him well. Will come back next time we are in the area.

Idyllic campsite. Very private and spacious. Good access to a fishing spot on the river and to a fresh water dam for a swim. Gavin was very helpful, showing us around on arrival. Looking forward to a return visit.

Weekend Trip to Nature Lovers Lagoon and River Camp

Nice quiet spot on the river. If you have kayaks it is accessible down a path but only at high tide to avoid the mud. Lucky enough to have the site to ourselves so perfect for us. Gavin is a realy nice host. We'll be back for sure.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Burrum Heads

It was a beautiful and peaceful spot for a calming rest. Definitely would recommend. But also strongly suggest you take lots of repellent!! The midgies were pretty full on in the evenings and early morning until the breeze blew them all away!

Situated close to the highway this was the perfect Hipcamp to use for our trip south. Despite only being a short distance from the turnoff this property does make you feel like you are in the woods. We were lucky enough to meet the lovely family who are creating this Hipcamp and can’t wait to see what they do in future. Kids loved the sandpit and play area. Goats, cows, chickens which the kids also loved and got to feed and the beautiful walk to the fairy garden. Would stay again.

Weekend Trip to Wonmoti's Haven

Follow the directions written out not google maps. Great place beautiful scenery and some pretty good facilities, 4 or so cold showers and some drop holes nice undercover area and Wayne was great. Pretty much plug in the utopia falls rock pools from the Maryborough side and follow that in the dirt road past the brick utopia hut and a place called reeds residents, follow that road down a fair way till just past a creek crossing (was dry when I went)
