We visited Mystic Adventures on Christmas Day as a group of four and had an absolutely amazing time. It felt like camping but with everything provided, which made the experience very comfortable and stress free.
Even though it was a very hot day, we really enjoyed ourselves and made great memories. The setup was thoughtful and well organised, allowing us to relax and just enjoy the getaway. One of the highlights was the cute little park area for children with lights everywhere, which created such a lovely and welcoming atmosphere.
A special mention to Kathryn, who was incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. She truly made us feel comfortable and added a personal touch to the whole experience.
Overall, Mystic Adventures is perfect for couples, families, or friends who want a camping style experience without the hassle. We would definitely recommend it and would love to return.

Perfect stay. Kathryn and Phil have been so thoughtful in the way they have set up the cabin and surrounding area. The cabin and facilities were super-clean, and stocked with everything you would need. Even the fires were pre-sticker with kindling. And the fresh bread was incredible. Thanks so much for a lovely stay, I will be back :)

From the very first interaction, Kathryn and Phil set the tone for an unforgettable experience. Their warm and thoughtful communication included a delightful surprise: they asked for my preferred type of bread. What arrived was the best gluten-free bread I have ever tasted—fresh, flavourful, and clearly made with care.
The site itself was pure magic. I stayed during the night of the last full moon of 2025, and the peacefulness of the surroundings was almost otherworldly. The clawfoot bathtub under the stars was a highlight—soaking in warm water while gazing at the moonlit sky felt like a dream come true.
To top it all off, I enjoyed my first viewing of Love Actually for 2025 on a big screen set up in the bush. Watching a classic film in such a unique setting added a cozy, cinematic touch to an already enchanting evening.
Mystic Adventures is more than a campsite—it’s an experience crafted with heart and attention to detail. Highly recommended for anyone seeking tranquility, a touch of luxury, and unforgettable memories.

Beautiful little cabin tucked away amongst the trees, fully set up so you don’t need to leave. Kathryn and Phillip were so accomodating and really made the stay as easy and pleasant as possible. They made fresh bread for arrival and brought up water, ice and firewood when we ran low free of charge! They have built a beautiful fairy garden and look out point at the back which was lovely for a walk through. They really have put in a big effort with it! Outdoor bath was super lovely too by the fire. Highly recommend the property for all the amenities and what it offers and for how lovely Kathryn and Phillip are!

You NEED to experience this place. What a most magical weekend away we had. The outdoor claw foot bath was AMAZING, it was so lovely to soak your stress away while watching the breeze in the trees! Kathryn & Phil have thought of everything you could possible imagine! The attention to detail and all the creature comforts are second to none. We enjoyed drinks by the fire at night and what a pleasure it was to have a beautiful hot shower off grid! The fairy garden is something to be experienced, so much love has gone into this magical space. Sitting having a drink at Lovers Lane is a must do as well. The bed is super comfortable too. Honestly when they say they have everything, they mean it, just pack your clothes, drinks and food everything else (even freshly baked bread & firewood) will be there waiting for you. We will 100% be back, cant rave about this spot enough! Even the possum came to say hello! Do yourself a favour and book this now, you won't regret it for a second.

Kathryn and Phil are just delightful hosts
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
They went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, relaxing and also made sure our pooch was comfortable and happy as well.
The space has everything you need.
Games inside to keep entertained. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils etc. Little touches like having the fire pit loaded with fire wood, to fresh baked bread, blankets, Cushions outside.
Everything to make our stay easy and straight forward. The fairy garden is the sweetest thing ever, a child dream. Lots of pockets to sit and relax in nature. So much love has been poured into this little tiny home and its surrounds.
We found it hard to leave we were so content and relaxed. Would highly recommend.

The best family-friendly glamping near Brisbane guide
Where to go
Gold Coast Hinterland
A world away from the beaches and glitzy high rises of the Gold Coast, the lush hinterland is the green behind the gold. Lace up your hiking boots and hit the bushwalking trails in the World Heritage-listed rainforest of Lamington National Park and Tamborine Mountain.
The Scenic Rim
The mountainous backdrop to Brisbane is a largely untouched swathe of bushland and rainforest that belies the notion that a bustling metropolis is just a stone's throw away. A short drive through Mount Nebo and Mount Glorious along the Northbrook Parkway to the country towns of Kilcoy and Woodford takes you into a rugged wilderness with state forest and national park camping sites.
North Stradbroke Island
Keep your eyes on the trees if you're camping on "Straddie"—they're full of koalas. Opt for a luxe campsite or glamping at a beachside caravan park. Or, if you have 4WD, hit the sand to experience the dunes and the beach.
Moreton Island
The Brisbane River empties into the sea in Moreton Bay, a short ferry ride from the Brisbane CBD. Moreton Island, one of the largest sand islands in the world, is 38 kilometres long and 98% national park land. Five campgrounds and four bush camping areas sit along the beach, with almost every campsite offering a stunning water view.
When to go
It's warm enough for short sleeves and swimming almost all year in Brisbane, although the mountain ranges tend to be a little cooler than the coast. Summer can be wet and stormy, and it rains a lot in the rainforest, so bring wet weather gear. Straddie is a popular spot with locals, so you'll need to book ahead during summer holidays.
Know before you go
- If you’re towing a caravan or driving a large motorhome, be aware that some of the steep, narrow roads around Nerang and Canungra and in Lamington National Park are unsuitable for larger trailers.
- All roads on Moreton Island are 4WD only, and all vehicles must have an access permit obtained from the state government.
- Check the tide charts before driving on the beaches of North Stradbroke or Moreton Island, as the road tends to disappear as the tide rises.
- Stradbroke Island ferries depart from Cleveland, while Moreton Island ferries leave from the Port of Brisbane.
