We enjoyed our stay on Jane's property. Wi-fi was included which was great for the kids and there is water available which was very handy. The site is well kept, private and very convenient for exploring around the Gold Coast, Tweed Heads and Byron Bay region. The site was quiet and we felt safe. Crabbes Creek was a cool little town with a cool General Store. We would definitely stay again.

My parents stayed for 5 nights in their caravan. They loved how much space there was and how close it was to the rail trail as well. Beautiful, green and quiet. Perfect for a few days out of town.
Jane was great to communicate with.

Great little get away. Love that there was water in the creek and the dogs could cool off. Ample space between campers and lots of places to walk around the property. We visited Mt. Barney which was a short drive. Highly recommend this space and Shayne is a great host and was very welcoming.
