The property is situated only 10 minutes drive from Maryborough, making it easy to explore this historic town. Guests are required to be fully self contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. Site 1 is better suited for tent campers. The site is a turfed section containing picnic table and small shelter shed, fire ring and access to boat ramp.

4. Buxton - Jekyll’s Hide

100%

(1)

46km from Maryborough · 7 sites · Tents, RVs · Buxton, QLD

100 secluded acres located on the Gregory River approximately 15 minutes from Buxton township. The property is nestled amongst thousands of acres of national park for bush walkers an explorers. Guests need to be fully self contained and no toilets are on site. Access to the Gregory river enables fishing from the bank and a spot to place a crab pot to secure a local feed of fish or mud crab. There is also the option to put a kayak into the river from the bank. Campsites are located approximately 100m from the river bank so only a short walk to the water. Despite there being some snags, I have caught some very decent fish and crabs all from the property. For those wanting to spend a day on the water, I can guide guests in my boat to help land one of the many metre barramundi that call the river home. There are approximately 15 native beehives on the property and I am happy to show guests inside some hives as well as how to locate some in the wild for the interested bushwalkers and nature lovers. The property does not have power, water or toilets so please plan ahead. Significant rainfall can also make accessibility an issue along the 1km driveway so I would recommend a 4 wheel drive, however if it is dry a 2WD would be fine.

The peace and quiet along with the beautiful scenery added to a fantastic 5 day stay at Creekside. The campsite had lush green grass which was well maintained and a fire pit was provided. Wood was available from Owen and Wendy who were amazing hosts. Will definitely be back.

1 night at Wright's on the River

We originally booked for 1 night and stayed for 5. We camped at the Creekside camp which was a lovely grassed area with lots of space. The area was well maintained and even had a shade shelter with table and chairs. The camp is private, quiet and with a lovely outlook over the creek and a fire pit is provided. We caught numerous catfish, which was fun, and 2 quite large lungfish which we photographed and released unharmed back into the water. Owen and Wendy are lovely friendly hosts who were very accommodating after we had a booking hiccup with another site. We will definitely be returning.

We had a wonderful stay at Wrights on the river. It's a lovely spot with a large body of water, great for water based activities & fun for the whole family. We will be going back again! It's an excellent spot for group camping, with two large caravan/tent sites side by side. If you want to ensure privacy we would recommend booking both sites, which is what we did. Owen was very welcoming & their place is very easy to find.

Fantastic Hipcamp! Heaps of grass spots to choose from, free firewood, lots of nature - including fireflies, which we've never seen before. Shane, the host, was great and checked in with us to let us know a storm was coming. Stayed a week, but could easily have stayed for longer.

We loved camping at Wrights on the River. Our host Owen and Wendy were very welcoming and helpful. We camped right on the river beautiful level soft grass site with easy access to river for kayaking or just relaxing enjoying the changing waterscape with the passing of the day. Quiet, peaceful apart from the bird song and occasional moo from the cows in the next meadow. Definitely a new favourite. Thankyou Owen & Wendy AAA+++ campsite

An amazing spot on the creek. Fire pit, privacy, green grass and fishing - absolutely perfect!! We had no problems getting up and down the hill but be mindful of your vehicle's capability if towing as access to the site is quite steep.

From the moment we arrived, we were in paradise. The peaceful river views, the beautiful setup, and the relaxing atmosphere made it absolute bliss from start to finish 😍 Our hosts, Owen and Wendy, were amazing — so welcoming, kind, and thoughtful. You can really tell how much love and care they’ve poured into this little slice of heaven. 💚 We loved it so much we’ve already booked again for Easter! 🐣☀️💦 If you’re looking for the perfect place to unwind, reconnect, and soak up nature, Wright’s on the River is pure magic.

Nice clean piece of property. Adjacent to the river. Michael and family very approachable and helpful. Enjoyed watching the NRL grand final on big screen and hosted BBQ. Thanks for your hospitality. Have already forwarded to mates for a next camping trip.
