41km from Innisfail · 8 sites · Tents, RVs · Aloomba, QLD

If you love campfires, birdwatching, freshwater creeks, fishing, and solitude, come and share the quietness of our 300 acre offgrid homestead and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Tropical North Queensland surrounded by world heritage rainforest, hills, creeks, the Mulgrave River, and all the flora and fauna that abound here. Our shallow freshwater creeks are refreshing to explore and, for deep water swimming and kayaking, it's only a five minute drive to Babinda Crossing. Hikers can explore our headlands or venture further to dedicated hiking trails including scaling the 922 metre high Walsh's Pyramid that's only a ten minute drive away. Birdwatchers are spoiled for choice day and night, beautiful insects are in abundance, small native marsupials and reptiles are regularly seen, and the waterways are home to a variety of tropical fish as well as the occasional crocodile in the main river. We’re a great base location for exploring the area as we’re only 15 minutes to the town of Gordonvale and less than an hour to Cairns International Airport, the Great Barrier Reef and the Atherton Tablelands. Boaties can take the ten minute drive to Deeral Boat Ramp to launch their vessel and head down the Mulgrave River to Russel Heads and out to the Great Barrier Reef and islands.

Tranquil Estate is located at the foothills in a beautiful part of the world called Bilyana that overlooks the magnificent Hinchinbrook Island and waterway. Tranquil Estate has approximately 10 acres of flat grassed area for parking your RV, caravan or camping for the night. We are less than 2km off the Bruce highway and the road into Tranquil Estate is a dirt road that is well maintained. There is a common use fire pit area and two wood BBQ's for use in the middle of the paddock. There is also a potable water tank for washing only. There are no toilets and drinking water available, so being self-sufficient is a requirement. There is a massive 50-year-old Mango tree that provides a heap of shade to sit under and enjoy the environment. Behind the Mango tree are walking tracks that take you across a bridge and into the rainforest. This is a pristine environment that we want to share with our visitors. Please be mindful that we have the usual wild animals that are native to the area (Cassowary's, pythons & snakes, wallabies & kangaroos) that should always be treated with the respect that they deserve. This is a beautiful part of the world to stay, and you will enjoy stopping and recharging your batteries!

Weekend Trip to The River Ranch

My partner and I had a fantastic time at Glens property. It was very hot but the creek had the perfect temperature for a cooldown. The best about our stay: No phone reception!! (At least not with Optus haha) Glen was incredibly kind and came down a couple of times as storms approached to let us know. We will be back, for sure!!

Weekend Trip to Aloomba Homestead (Tropical Qld)

Loved this little property! We changed spots after chatting to Margie on arrival as she said there was a spot we might see a croc! It was a lovely spot, with beautiful views around. Margie was very accommodating and helpful! Great spot to then Hike Walsh's Pyramid and check out Behana Creek. Would stay again

Gorgeous spot right on a crystal clear river. Could easily have stayed longer if we had the time. Glen was a great host and full of really interesting information about the local wildlife. He is also extremely handy on the lawn mower! The place was impeccable. Thanks Glen

10 nights at Aloomba Homestead (Tropical Qld)

To be honest nothing stood out at 'Aloomba Homestead' Hipcamp, because it was simply amazingly magical all 'round, our type of Hipcamp. Mother Nature at her best, the birdlife was incredible, a very peaceful and calming location on the Mulgrave River within close proximity to Deeral boat ramp, where we launched our tinny and also topped up with water for our van. As for the hosts Margie & Richard, what a terrific down to earth couple, our kinda people, very genuine and open to a good old chin-wag. We hope they travel down our way to Cape Bridgewater in Victoria one day, so we can return their kindness. Top spot for our 10 day stay. 👌

We loved our stay at Alex’s place! Alex is wonderful and so lovely to chat too! It’s a great space with plenty of room. Short drive into the centre of Cairns, we stayed 4 nights and it was perfect for us to service our car/van. A great spot for a quick stop over too! Safe and peaceful. The Wallabies are every where and the sunsets are beautiful.

Alex‘s place was an excellent location, it was a great base for all our day trips during our time in Cairns. Alex was a very friendly and accommodating host, making suggestions for things to do in the local area. What we enjoyed about the stay was the close-up wallaby encounters, and the quiet location with lots of space. A note to fellow travelers; It was great that there was no road noise at all, yet It was close enough to the freeway. I would highly recommend Alex‘s place for your base while you are in the cairns region.

Beautiful spot, with just a lace monitor for company! Pretty creek, just a short stroll from the campground. Large firepits stocked with plenty of qood. A little road and train noise, but didn't affect our enjoyment of the camp. Great location for exploring Murray Falls, which are spectacular. Thank you, I am sure we will return again.

We loved our stay at The River Camp. So harmed to leave the relaxing sanctuary Glenn has created. Kids spent most of their waking hours on the creek and on the swing. Plus we had the whole camp to ourselves! Glenn was a fantastic host. He made sure we had everything we needed, as well as some great local knowledge about the area. Cannot fault this space, I hope we have an opportunity to stay again!
