We accept tent and 4WD camper trailers only, please no caravans or motorhomes. Our property is dog-friendly, keeping in mind it is a working cattle property.  Children under 12 stay free.

Tony's hip camp was an awesome experience and I would recommend it to family and friends. We stayed down by the creek. It was my dogs first camping experience who suffers from anxiety. However our experience was a positive one, she even made a nice doggo friend. The camp site wasn't packed full of people. We all had our own space and it was peaceful and quiet away from other campers. The toilets were the cleanest I have ever seen at any camp site. Tony and his wife were lovely and very accommodating. The sound of the waterfall outside our tent was also serene. I would definitely go back again.

Lovely green property down by the creek. Well maintained toilets with toilet paper included. We usually go to private camping spots but this was a last minute booking, we were lucky to have respectful campers amongst us as u are quite close together. Loved that we could take our dog and have him off lead. Well maintained grass, no mosquitoes, barely any flies, perfect summer camping spots with a fire pit. The host Tony was lovely, opening gates, great communication, always available if needed. Local town 20mins away if u need groceries, a chemist or coffee. We took our ford ranger and jayco lark (both with off road features) and managed to get up and down the track fine, but if there had been a heavy shower it would have been challenging.

We have now been to Traveller's Rest twice, and loved it both times. The area is flat and grassy and backs on to a creek. There is alot of birdlife to watch with neighbouring farms of cows and a horse to observe. Leanne keeps the camp ground mowed, the shower is spotless and the 2 porta-loos are always clean. It is effortless camping not far from the GC.

Beautiful quiet camping area in a valley setting. Good toilet facilities and lovely stream, though water level too shallow to really bathe/swim in (December). Tony was kind and friendly. Overall a lovely experience, would come back.

Lynn’s land is a peaceful and welcoming place that feels like a real escape into nature. The space is open, quiet, and well cared for, making it easy to relax and unwind. What really stood out was the sense of privacy and calm — perfect for anyone looking to disconnect from the busy city life. The portable showers and portable washrooms were a thoughtful touch and made the stay much more comfortable. Lynn was also a lovely host, friendly and helpful while still giving us our space. A great spot for families or anyone who enjoys a simple, tranquil stay surrounded by nature.
