The campsite sits on a gentle slope, so a little leveling may be required. The house is within view, but you won’t have to camp facing us. We’re just 15 minutes from Airlie Beach, 10 minutes from Proserpine, 10 minutes from beautiful Conway Beach, and 5 minutes from Cedar Creek Falls. At the moment, we’re upgrading the driveway entry, so please be aware. We’re super pet-friendly and have two of our own friendly pets who love meeting new visitors!

Very cost effective so you can spend more time at the beach and out snorkeling! Super convenient location. Shops nearby. Bit of noise from neighbours but safe location and Kyle was a brilliant host.

We had a wonderful stay at the Farm! Our host Josie was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. Our baby even got to feed the guinea pigs, which was an absolute highlight and so adorable to watch. The farm is peaceful, beautifully maintained, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. We also loved the stunning night sky – the stars were amazing! We highly recommend staying here.

An absolutely fantastic campsite, very small in a beautiful setting, toilets and facilities were great very clean and well built, luxurious. The hosts were incredibly freindly and so were their dogs. If you do decide to book with them go direct. https://www.laurel-bank.com.au/

Absolutely loved our stay at this farm! The sunsets were truly spectacular, and our host was incredibly warm and welcoming. I was smitten with the animals and loved the chance to get up close with them. Our site felt private, with access to a well-equipped camp kitchen and a breathtaking view of the stars at night. Definitely a stay worth every moment 🌅

After driving past the cane fields for weeks it was great to spend a night camped out amongst them, with stunning views of the ranges. Friendly, efficient and spacious. If you time your stay right you might be there for burger night - a treat to take a night off cooking!

We enjoyed the serenity in such a beautiful location, that enabled us to get a peaceful nights sleep. The whole area is immaculately maintained and amenities pristine. The hosts are super welcoming and openly share their experiences with guests. We arrived as travelers but left as friends. Looking forward to returning one day. Thank you Karinda and Dale for sharing your property.

Nice camping especially with kids. Feeding the animals was great. We searched for the Platypus in the billabong, but couldn't find it at dusk or dawn. Better luck next time
