It was a really good camping trip at the Barrine farm stay and camping. The kids enjoyed it a lot—feeding the chickens, goats, and cows. It was very peaceful with great weather. Loved it.

Weekend Trip to Barrine Farmstay And Camping

We had a real magical time here, Emma was a brilliant host! She showed us and the kids around the farm letting us meet her goats, feed the cows and collect eggs from the chickens. She even brought baby goats down to the camp-site to let the kids feed them milk and meet some very friendly dogs. She even gave us trays of eggs that where collected that day from the chickens! Luckily we got to see a baby cow being born during the night and she walked straight up to meet us in the morning! Your kids will love this spot! Camp site had everything we needed from toilets, showers, fire pit and power. Only a short drive away from other activity spots like lake eacham and yungaburra. Was a lovely trip full of memories will definitely be back

We really enjoyed our stay at Emma's farm stay and camping. Our son loved feeding hay to the cows and collecting eggs from the chooks. And we were given lots of fresh eggs! They tasted great! And they even supplied fire wood. A great spot close to Lake Barrine and Lake Tinaroo. Definitely recommended.

We had a perfect spot at number 4, plenty of full sun for solar collection. Plenty of open grassed space for the kids to play, the creek was also fantastic for both big and small kids to play and swim in. Just a note that there is no water available at all and if you need to top up tanks you will need to collect from town. We are a big rig and had no issues with getting in or out. We will definitely be back next time we are up that way.

Weekend Trip to Barrine Farmstay And Camping

We had a lovely stay. The camp was well set up with good facilities, and the host was welcoming. A highlight for us was feeding the goats and collecting fresh eggs from the chickens. We also felt very safe throughout our stay, and the location is convenient for exploring the area. One thing to note is that the paddock is smaller than I expected, and without trees it does feel a bit close to your neighbours. That was really my mistake for not reviewing the listing properly, I usually look for more secluded camping. I just thought it might be helpful to mention for anyone looking for more private spots. Overall, it was a great experience and I’d happily recommend staying here. Thanks again for hosting us.

Great place to camp - adequate sun (for solar & starlink) on any site (except # 1). Kids spent hours swimming & playing in the creek. Enjoyed the 2 horses coming and visiting morning & afternoon for pats & carrots. Short 10 minute drive into Mossman town centre.
