Weekend Trip to Djitti Djitti Farm

We had amazing views. A great sense of serenity and very friendly hosts. We had the paddock to ourselves along with the cows and horses. We stayed on a wet weekend so we did not get the chance to spotlight some wildlife. Would recommend to anyone who loves mountain views. And being out with the wildlife. Would advise bringing a rake to help clear a spot for your setup.

Lovely grassy spot with great views. Enjoyed our fire watching it get dark and seeing the lights over Toowoomba after dark. There was a fair bit of road noise but this did not bother us or wake us during the night. Easy to find. Would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Somerset Valley Farm

We stayed at site 14 and it was perfect, tucked away at the back of the property where it was quiet and secluded. The two lovely dogs came and kept us company for the stay and loved the attention we gave them. Lots and lots of pats were given, we loved having the dogs company. Would highly recommend staying here.

Weekend Trip to Atkinson Edgewater

The staff were really great! The first night we were there, there was a group who were loud throughout the night and in the morning Doug was really proactive about getting everyone's feelings about them and moved them further away from everyone. Apart from that, even though it was a long weekend, it didn't feel like we were all camping on top of each other's spaces! We had lots of fun!

Michaela's place is delighted with creativities. There are art installations, studios, and even karaoke bar with lots of custumes to choose. We enjoyed our camping time with doggos and horses. Besides, each camp ground is huge and far from eachother. We even had a dam view in the front of our camp ground! Michaela always responds messages instantly and helped us a lot. :)) Would definitely recommend to come!

Weekend Trip to Elevated Views

We loved this place! The hilltop had the absolute best views and even better sunsets. It was very peaceful and a fantastic weekend away, the hosts were great with communication prior and were very friendly once we had arrived. I dont often go somewhere more than once unless its fantastic and this is one of those places that have me wanting to go back!

Mark greeted us on arrival and was very warm and friendly, got us to our campsite and pointed out what’s around, then left us to it! A lovely quiet property with plenty of trees which we loved to hang our hammocks in! The creek was very nice to swim in too! Would definitely consider coming back again!

Lovely well maintained grassed areas, level. Toilet was very very clean and flushes! Everyone was kind and helpful. We didn’t swim as the water hadn’t moved for a while but might be because it hasn’t rained lately.

The camp grounds are very well maintained. Showers were kept very clean. Jane and Luke were very welcoming and helpful and could not do enough to assist their guests. There was a nice amount of space between individual sites allowing for more privacy. There is easy access to the water for fishing or swimming We will definitely return.

Weekend Trip to Emmaton Park & Sunset Cottage

One of the best camping experience we had. Campsites are evenly spaced. Liza greets you and is very responsive to questions. The host, Jim, treats you like family. He is a very warm host. He gets to visit you and see how you go. He also is very sharp and friendly. Even explained Emma is the name of one of their pups and get to name the place Emmaton. Hot and cold shower is available. Toilet is clean. Campsite is clean. You can pitch a tent or rent on of their cottage. Watching NRL Grand Finals with Jim is very memorable. Definitely going back again to Emmaton park. See you soon Jim!

Camped at wind break, the owners were very accompanied thank to you Jane. Toilets were clean daily. Caught a big yellow perch in the creek. Swim able creek need to track down a steep hill but had it to ourselves which was nice. The camps are alittle close but neighbours where nice. Will recommend 👍

Emmaton park is a super lovely place to set up camp. The amenities are super accessible no matter where you set up on the campground, with the flat ground makes it easy to get to. The birdlife is wonderful and so are the starry night skies. A super pretty place to escape to from the city. Liza and Jim are very helpful, kind and generous hosts who are happy to help out with anything you need and were super hospitable. Would come again.
