Loved our stay, such a beautiful private spot. Lexi and Kieren maintain the property very well and are accommodating hosts… favourite Hipcamp to date!

Kezza was an amazing host- she took us around the farm, gave lots of information and lots of her time and took the kids on a tractor ride around the farm. She was super helpful and it was a great stay- highly recommend!

We absolutely loved camping at Kezza & Dave's land. We ended up being at the powered site by the tank, site 5, which was great as it was quiet and private. Kezza & Dave were fantastic and always available if we needed anything. Kezza took us on a farm tour and we learnt so much, this was a highlight of our trip. They also had the kindest dog, Marley, who always stopped in for a daily visit. Even though it was just my husband and I we couldn't help but cook enough food for 3, as Marley is just the sweetest and enjoyed Hubbys bbq meat. Was thankful that we had bug spray as the mozzies were relentless, but that's the normal with bush camping. Overall 10/10 and will definitely be back. Thanks Kezza & Dave for being amazing!

We had a great time staying on Kezza's farm. Kezza and Dave were kind and communicative, It was quiet and peaceful, our kids enjoyed seeing cows, sheeps, horses (on the neighboring lot) and lots of kangarooes. Kezza gave us a tour of the farm, teaching about the farm's produce. The location is excellenct, close to thunderbird park and the rainforest walk.

Amazing little site, nice shelter to sit under without having to bring a gazebo, and a couple of fire pits so you don't have to use the main firepit for cooking. A great time, and will definitely be back

We had a great stay at Lakeside Camp, Beachmere. We were in Site 5, which suited us perfectly as a couple without kids — it’s a little further from the playground, so nice and quiet compared to some of the other sites.
There’s the option to fill up water on the edge of the campground if needed, which is handy. The location is an absolute gem — so close to Brisbane and just a short drive over to the beaches of Bribie Island. There’s also a small supermarket about 5 minutes away for any forgotten essentials.
We stayed midweek and found it very peaceful (though we’ve heard it can get quite popular on weekends). Loved all the birdlife around — magpies, butcher birds and kookaburras made it feel like a proper Aussie camping experience.
Would definitely stay again!

Bush camping not too far from Brisbane 🤩
We’ve stayed here twice now and absolutely loved it both times. We’ll definitely be back!
A beautiful, peaceful spot with a genuine bush camping feel, yet still an easy drive from Brisbane. The host family were fantastic: incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed.
Highly recommend

This is river camping at its finest... Totally secluded and private and so much space. Direct access to the river ideal for swimming and kayaking. Great family get together location.

Lakeside was an absolute beauty of a Hipcamp. We really really enjoyed our stay. So much we booked an extra night.
We would definitely recommend this and also stay again ourselves.
The slides and lake was a blast!

I arrived looking a little lost and the lovely Tania gave me a tour on the buggy it was fantastic! the sunset and sunrise here is incredible and you can choose to be a bit more private down the hill in some lovely spots or up by the common area which has wifi, full kitchen, TV, everything you need really. This place is so well looked after and loved, can’t wait to go back with friends.

Had a great stay - camped on the ridge.
Weather was great, birds were active and close to GC.
Served its purpose well.
