During busy times, most weekend bookings are a minimum of 2 nights with 1 night bookings during the week, however occasionally we will have 1 night bookings on weekends. Check with your host to see availability on 1 night bookings.
All campsites run parallel too the creek and are situated on the upper bank of Yabba Creek. Some have creek views, the other sites have trees between the creek and their site. All have mountain views. The main access to the creek is half way along the campground between site 8 and 9. Please do not leave your car parked in the walkway as this will block the entrance to campsite 9. Unfortunately, we lost many of our creek access points due to flooding.
Our property is situated between Imbil and Lake Borumba on the beautiful Yabba Creek.
We have 110 acres, with campsites on 20 acres.
We have 1km of creek frontage.
The creek offers fishing, swimming and kayaking. If you're lucky you'll spot the platypus in the creek and there's lots of birdlife around so bring your cameras! Kayaks are supplied free for all campers to use. We just ask that you treat them with respect and return them back to their launching place once you have finished with them.

There is lots of space for motorhomes and large camping vehicles to maneuver and park. Plenty of flat spots for your tent or vehicle.
This campsite has access to flushing toilets (toilets are situated approx. 400m from the camp sites) and water (rainwater), but you will need to bring your own camping shower.
Campfires are permitted outside of fire-ban season (please use the existing firepits).
The property features a gorgeous rainforest with a walking track that you can follow safely, and you can also access the state forest next door if you're up for a bigger adventure.
Lake Borumba is just down the road which permits water skiing, boating, fishing and other water recreation.
The town ship of Imbil is only 7 minutes away where you can visit the many cafes, bakeries, The Imbil pub, Sunday markets, Produce and hardware store, supermarket, butcher, clothing shops, hairdresser, fishing supplies, Petrol station, post office and more.

We loved our stay at hidden camp! The boys loved the animals, all so friendly and happy for a pat (and some snacks!) The sunsets in the hammock were my favourite. Leah and Callan were so friendly and helpful always checking in and coming to my rescue buggying my heavy water jugs back down to our campsite and another block of chocolate for our smores kit when we ate it all on the first night 😂 We can't wait to come back ❤️

Beautiful tranquil spot perfect for a quick getaway. Great equipment to use on the dam and grounds all immaculate. Toilets looked after well enough - think day 1 of a festival. All up we’d recommend a stay if only to soak up the tranquility by the fire while star gazing!!! Thanks for having us Warren.

We had an incredible experience at Hidden Camp. The location is beautiful, with plenty of space to explore, play and to find your own little space not on top of other campers. I know the amenities are in the process of being renovated but everything available to us was clean, accessible and well maintained. There was so much to keep the kids entertained, the roaming animals were so friendly and gentle which was such a great experience for the kids, even my youngest who is typically anxious around animals loved it. Callan and his team were fantastic hosts, arrival was easy, and they do a really wonderful job of running the place. I would 10/10 recommend this spot.

Absolutely worth a visit！
You can tell the owners put real care into details you wouldn't even notice at first glance, which is often the hardest thing to pull off. They've kept the natural, original ecosystem intact while still providing all the comforts and conveniences you need. It's clear a huge amount of effort and hard work went into every corner of this place～well done！
The vibe here is relaxed, private, safe, and welcoming. Callan was warm and friendly, and could even call every animal by name — a small detail that says a lot about the level of care and love that goes into this place.
We'll definitely be back!

This was our second camping as a family with our baby. We really enjoyed our stay. The place is clean, quiet, and good for families. Callan was very nice and helpful during our stay, and check-in was easy. Toilets and showers were clean. The animals around were friendly too. It was a nice and relaxing trip. We would come back again. ⛺️🤎

Thank you Callan & Leah for a wonderful stay at your farm. A truly unforgettable experience! We loved the open spaces, how easy it was to find a quiet site amongst the gums, the interaction with the animals, go karting down the hills and the friendly warm welcome we received. It let our kids embrace the serenity and wonder of nature all around you. Can’t wait to return one day!
Note: This is a true farm/country experience so if you’re unlucky enough to have rain during your stay, just embrace the mud, pack some gumboots and enjoy marshmallows around your campfire!

What an awesome spot!
The showers and amenities are coming along nicely. There’s plenty of portaloos around to spread the campers out around the property. Even during school holidays, there was space for everyone.
The animals are so friendly. In fact I was so distracted by the animals I missed the meeting spot to meet the owners to get to my campsite!
There are spots by the dam and plenty of flat, shaded or open sites depending what you are looking for. There are plenty of fire pits available and welcome to collect your own firewood or purchase on site.

Absolutely loved our time at Hidden Camp. It’s a large property with plenty of well spread out campsites for all types of camping. Plenty of sites close to amenities or more isolated sites near the creek with no one around. We chose to camp in the trees across from the creek. The free roaming animals were the highlight for us and it was a truely unique and magical experience for the kids. We had horses visit our campsite daily, coming under our gazebo looking for snacks and a pat. The kids were also able to interact with Camels, Ducks, miniature pigs, ducks, donkeys and the owners two adorable dogs Honda and Missy. The push carts were a hit with the kids spending hours riding them down the hills on the property. The amenities were spotless. I’m not the biggest fan of portaloos but they were spotless and cleaned regularly. We enjoyed a movie in the barn and Callan and his family were so welcoming and relaxed. We highly recommend and will definitely be back in the future.

This is an excellent camping spot and Callan was super friendly and helpful before and during our stay. There is loads of space, plenty of fire pits and the ability to collect your own free firewood. We had daily visits (and I mean visits - like in the tent almost) from donkeys, horses and goats and we saw kangaroos, camels, peacocks, geese............. The crowing roosters remind you that you're on a real-life farm very early in the morning but that's part of the fun, I guess. Some facilities were still under construction when we visited but it was all usable and very neat. The Portaloos were the cleanest and sweetest smelling Portaloos I have ever been in!
We will be back for sure.

We loved our weekend away at Sandycreek Homestead. Lots of space between campsites, clean facilities, hot showers, clear night skies that had stars as far as the eyes can see. The dam was perfect for a paddle then a quick dip. Would be even more perfect in summer. We can't wait to come back, maybe with a fishing rod next time. Thank you for sharing your little slice of paradise with us.

Where to go
Caloundra
About an hour's drive north of Brisbane, Caloundra is home to some of Queensland’s best beaches. Kings Beach is a favourite for its oceanfront saltwater pool and walking tracks that lead around the Caloundra headland. In the heart of Caloundra, on the Pumicestone Passage, are a range of accommodation options from camping and caravan sites to oceanfront cabins and glamping tents, many with access to a swimming pool, laundry, and free wifi.
Maroochydore
Half an hour up the coast, Maroochydore is considered the heart of the Sunshine Coast. You can easily spend all your time in the main town, catching waves and enjoying the bars and restaurants that line its lively esplanade, but it’s also a prime spot for embarking on diving and snorkeling trips.
Coolum
Coolum is a perennially popular getaway for its beaches, golf courses, and carefree atmosphere. Explore the rocky headlands of Point Perry and Point Arkwright, and even tackle the climb to the peak of Mount Coolum—the view from the top is well worth the effort. Back down at sea level, oceanfront campgrounds offer van and camping spots with direct access to the beach.
Noosa
Surrounded by national parks, beaches, and hinterland, Noosa's natural beauty makes it the jewel in the Sunshine Coast’s crown. Adventure abounds: You can soak up the turquoise waters of Noosa Main Beach, spot wildlife in Noosa National Park, paddle through the wetlands of the Noosa Everglades, and head from Noosa North Shore to Rainbow Beach and into Great Sandy National Park, home to the famed Fraser Island.
Hinterland
Head into the Sunshine Coast’s Hinterland and discover the rainforest of Kondalilla National Park, the ancient volcanic peaks of the Glass House Mountains, and the bohemian atmosphere of the Eumundi Markets. You can wake up to mountain views and the sounds of a burbling creek at a number of area camping grounds.
