Basic camping site. Off the main road so dry weather access only. Plenty to look at on the farm if you let us know - Hiking/Mountain or dirt bike tracks/Garden tours can all be arranged with a bit of notice. The camels will probably want to check you out at this spot. Please note, this is a working farm so if you could give way to any machinery you come across that would be much appreciated. Pets allowed (on leash)

3 nights at Wongalea Fishing and Camping

Really enjoyed our 3 day stay. Vast space, pretty scenary and solitude. Whist being isolated, the camp sites are well maintained with lots of options. Just be aware its a 17km drive in on a dirt road which is in reasonable condition. Also zero connectivity (which was a great thing!!) if this presents an issue for others.

Weekend Trip to Bushland Hideaway on the River

What a magic spot. Anne met us and led us to a beautiful camp directly on the river bank. Kayaks to use were available so we spent the afternoon heading up and down the river, fishing and relaxing. There were some toilets available and fire pit. Camp spots spread out. All as described but probably even better in person!

Very peaceful and tranquil property. Toilets were clean and a valued additional to our camping experience. Canoes were great fun with the kids. Will definitely call in again when heading by that way.

The staff were super friendly and welcoming, making the stay feel relaxed and easy. Had the steak sandwich for dinner – absolutely delicious, highly recommend it! Camping options were great too – you can choose between powered sites with water for just $25, or free unpowered camping if you're happy to go without. Either way, it's a great value stop with a great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend to fellow travellers looking for a laid-back stay with good pub food. And there is a pool!

What an amazing and tranquil spot right on the Dumaresq River, next to the Glenarbon Weir, right on the border of NSW and Qld. Phil and Anne have an amazing property and are fantastic hosts! Didn't have any luck with the fishing ... but we are the worst fishing people of all time ;) We only stayed one night this time, but we will be back again soon and will stay longer next time!

What can we say but another excellent stay. The camp area was very well presented with the site well mowed and marked out. The ladies loved the porta loos which were clean and in great condition. The river didn’t let us boys down with plenty of shrimp for gait and fish biting well. We highly recommend this camp site and Phil and Anne are fantastic hosts.
