Kayaks are included in your stay, as well as a ping pong table. A shared toilet, PowerPoints (for device charging), and mini fridge are available inside. Firewood can be collected on the property, or purchased locally.
No drinking water and no shower facilities, but you may use the tap and hose to rinse off (or enjoy an open-air shower if you aren’t too bashful!)
Conondale is a quiet country town and given we are positioned quite close to the town itself, we respectfully ask that all music and loud noise be cut off by 10pm.
Please contact before booking if you are planning on bringing pets as well.

We stayed with our camper van for 3 nights. Great site, well cared for and fully fenced which was perfect for our dogs. Will definitely go again with the family. It did rain solidly for 2 days but because it is so well kept there was no build up of rain excess water. Loved it. Thanks John and Tenille

Neil and Joss's farm is so beautiful. You will have the most private, relaxing stay. The grass is so well maintained. Our 10 month old and two puppies loved it. Thank you.

A great place to spend the weekend. As a camping spot, it ticks all the boxes, well cared for sites, shady areas, a running creek for dips, fire places, great toilets and the best part is Tony is a great host and very accommodating. Do it, book it in! For those with campers and hybrids, the creek sites are doable, but make sure you know what you are doing as the drive out is steep and loose.

Just wow. Neil’s property is so well maintained from the moment you drive in. Beautifully cared for and manicured. It was a breeze finding and the sites are immaculate. Just 1hr 12min from
Brisbane - genuinely can’t wait to get back to this hidden gem.

It turned out to be such a romantic camping trip filled with wonderful memories.
It rained heavily starting the day before departure, so I contacted them, and they told me the place wasn’t affected by the weather, so we decided to come anyway.
We arrived on a rainy day and it rained a lot for the next two days. On the day we were supposed to go home, the sun finally came out, so we extended our stay by one more day.
It’s a place that is incredibly beautiful both in the rain and in the sunshine. The restrooms and shower facilities were extremely clean and perfect.
Since we stayed for three nights, it might have been even better if there had been a sink for dishwash, but it was still perfectly fine without one.
We truly had a happy time here.
We will definitely come back again.

What a fantastic weekend we have just had! The weather was abysmal all weekend however it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits Our group camp was full of laughter chatting catching up guitar playing singing and generally relaxing. Bushy and Emma are the most fantastic hosts and went over and above to ensure we all were have a wonderful stay at their property. This was our second time out there and certainly won’t be our last. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Hosts Emma and Bushy were wonderful and friendly.
Grounds were amazing with great facilities.
To top it off the D'Ag Pub has a courtesy bus that will do pick up/drop off to the camp grounds.
Can't wait to go back!

We camped in the large open space near the creek. Perfect for larger groups. Grounds are well maintained and the creek was perfect for cooling off on the hot days.
