We camped at the Sunset Ridge site and would highly recommend. It was private and had great views. The kids loved the animal feeds and we loved waking up to cows at our campsite one morning. We will definitely be back.

We loved our stay at One Tree Hill (Moreton bay Ashgrove site).
Guy and his family were very welcoming and the animals on their property were a really fun addition to the camping experience.
Camp sites are far enough away from each other that you feel completely alone.
We will definitely be back in the future.

Red Gum Hill was so private. We had two families with two vans and there was plenty of space. Cows came to visit in the morning and the views across the valley were stunning. The kids walked down to the homestead every morning and evening to help feed all the animals. They didn't want to leave 😂
Thanks so much for having us.

For this site it’s best to pick times outside of the usual busy times. We went early last week for 2 nights and only had 4 other campers there. Toilets were clean and big shout out to Dan for the intel on the area. We will be back

Plenty of space, short drive into town. Gorgeous sunsets from behind the towering gum trees along the Condamine River. Definitely worth a walk along the river. John, who guided us to our site, was a pleasure to deal with.

Frog Hollow Campground is a beautiful spot with rolling hills, lush green grass, and plenty of walking tracks to explore. Seeing the cows and horses wander past each day was such a lovely touch. The stargazing at night was incredible, and the drive in was absolutely stunning.
Jackie, the host, was so lovely and welcoming. From the moment we booked until the end of our stay, she was there to help and made sure we were all settled in. There was loads of firewood available, which was a bonus.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay — one of the best camping spots we have stayed at. The campsites were well maintained, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. Highly recommend!

This place is absolutely incredible!
I stayed at a different site here before, and I had such an amazing experience that I couldn’t wait to come back. The host is honestly one of the kindest people I’ve ever met, which made my previous stay even more special. I really wanted to book the same spot again, but it was already fully booked—so I decided to try a new site instead.
Even though there are no toilets or showers directly on-site, it wasn’t an issue at all since they’re only about a 30-second drive away. Super convenient!
The host was, once again, beyond kind and welcoming. The new site was incredibly spacious, spotless, and the view overlooking the area was just breathtaking. I genuinely loved every moment here.
The site is also very private, which made it perfect for my dogs to run around freely and comfortably.
I’ll definitely be coming back again and again. Highly recommend this place! Thank you so much! ✨

Open green spaces with a variety of backdrops to suit all camping setups, but the real standout is the ever changing misty mountain views. Camp 2 and 4 offer the best vantage points of the mountains, while Camp 3 feels more private, tucked in behind the trees. Camp 1 has a small number of powered sites and, while more compact, is closest to the amenities within easy walking distance.
Amenities are rustic but available in a central block plus compost toilets and gas showers located throughout each camp area for those who aren’t fully self-sufficient.
There’s plenty to explore, with space to walk and cycle, and a large dam complete with free kayaks for guests to enjoy.
The staff are warm and welcoming, Jules in particular brings an infectious energy and makes sensational toasties at the cafe in the games shed. The property is well signed, firewood is available to purchase on site (cash only), and communication from the owner and team is excellent.
Arrival is relaxed, drive in, choose your spot, and staff will check you in later that afternoon or early evening.
A quiet, open, and safe space, highly recommend.
I camped in Area 4 at top of hill for maximum mountain views and even though I had 4 days of rain every day, I still hiked the property, roads accessible and my stay was comfortable and enjoyed. I did not use facilities as I am self sufficient for off grid.

The view is stunning from the vast open space, with plenty of room between campers. The bus shop offers a huge selection of jam, relish and olives, and the olives are superb! The owner was very friendly and popped in for a chat. The site is close to Kalbar where you’ll find a lovely cafe serving homemade cakes and slices, and great coffee! Kalbar also has a dump point in the Showgrounds (for a donation). We highly recommend Olive Grove Estate. We’ll definitely be back.
