Clearly some of the reviews on here were given under the old management, we loved this place. Ticked all the boxes, quiet, had all of the necessities, friendly staff and easy access to the water. Would definitely recommend and we will be back.

Great experience at Edgewater. There's a shop that has most things you'd need and great camping spots with fire pits in each one. The damn is nice; not the best for swimming but good for above water activities.

Weekend Trip to Djitti Djitti Farm

We had amazing views. A great sense of serenity and very friendly hosts. We had the paddock to ourselves along with the cows and horses. We stayed on a wet weekend so we did not get the chance to spotlight some wildlife. Would recommend to anyone who loves mountain views. And being out with the wildlife. Would advise bringing a rake to help clear a spot for your setup.

Lovely grassy spot with great views. Enjoyed our fire watching it get dark and seeing the lights over Toowoomba after dark. There was a fair bit of road noise but this did not bother us or wake us during the night. Easy to find. Would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Somerset Valley Farm

We stayed at site 14 and it was perfect, tucked away at the back of the property where it was quiet and secluded. The two lovely dogs came and kept us company for the stay and loved the attention we gave them. Lots and lots of pats were given, we loved having the dogs company. Would highly recommend staying here.

Weekend Trip to Lowood Nature Camp

We had a fantastic 2-night, 3-day stay at this peaceful property in Lowood, hosted by the wonderful Lynette and Lauren. This is the ideal spot for true off-grid camping. Important Note on Facilities: This is a primitive camp, meaning there are no shower or toilet facilities. Campers must be fully self-sufficient, but if you're prepared, the reward is pure quiet and space. What it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in space and charm. There is plenty of open land and the entire experience was incredibly relaxing. The check-in and check-out process was easy and seamless. The absolute highlight was the friendly resident horses! We highly recommend you pack carrots and apples to make some new friends. For restocking supplies like wood and ice, the town of Lowood is only a quick 5-minute drive away. We highly recommend this spot for a peaceful, hassle-free getaway. For more details and photos from our trip, check out our page: @thejonescampingadventures.

Plenty of space to set up your camp site.

Weekend Trip to Atkinson Edgewater

The staff were really great! The first night we were there, there was a group who were loud throughout the night and in the morning Doug was really proactive about getting everyone's feelings about them and moved them further away from everyone. Apart from that, even though it was a long weekend, it didn't feel like we were all camping on top of each other's spaces! We had lots of fun!

Michaela's place is delighted with creativities. There are art installations, studios, and even karaoke bar with lots of custumes to choose. We enjoyed our camping time with doggos and horses. Besides, each camp ground is huge and far from eachother. We even had a dam view in the front of our camp ground! Michaela always responds messages instantly and helped us a lot. :)) Would definitely recommend to come!

Weekend Trip to Elevated Views

We loved this place! The hilltop had the absolute best views and even better sunsets. It was very peaceful and a fantastic weekend away, the hosts were great with communication prior and were very friendly once we had arrived. I dont often go somewhere more than once unless its fantastic and this is one of those places that have me wanting to go back!

Mark greeted us on arrival and was very warm and friendly, got us to our campsite and pointed out what’s around, then left us to it! A lovely quiet property with plenty of trees which we loved to hang our hammocks in! The creek was very nice to swim in too! Would definitely consider coming back again!

Lovely well maintained grassed areas, level. Toilet was very very clean and flushes! Everyone was kind and helpful. We didn’t swim as the water hadn’t moved for a while but might be because it hasn’t rained lately.

Weekend Trip to Emmaton Park & Sunset Cottage

One of the best camping experience we had. Campsites are evenly spaced. Liza greets you and is very responsive to questions. The host, Jim, treats you like family. He is a very warm host. He gets to visit you and see how you go. He also is very sharp and friendly. Even explained Emma is the name of one of their pups and get to name the place Emmaton. Hot and cold shower is available. Toilet is clean. Campsite is clean. You can pitch a tent or rent on of their cottage. Watching NRL Grand Finals with Jim is very memorable. Definitely going back again to Emmaton park. See you soon Jim!
