NO MOTOR BIKES ON PROPERTY PLEASE!!
Burra Creek Camping in Bright is an incredibly beautiful, rustic 5000-acre property, situated 25km North of Robertstown, just over 2 hours from Adelaide.
It's suited to those with 4x4 or higher clearance vehicles, and off-road campers/caravans and tents. The camping sites here are very private, and provide large flat areas to set up. All have beautiful surroundings and views.
The land here is spectacular. From morning light accompanied by birdsong, to days spent exploring the creek and the bush, to stargazing and toasting marshmallows by night, the land here offers the perfect antidote to modern-day stresses. There is (wonderfully) limited phone service here, meaning it's the perfect place for a digital detox!
Two of our campsites have very basic outback long drop toilets (Wombat Flat and Creek Site), but for all other sites, campers need to be fully self-contained. It's you and nature. Therefore we ask that you please ensure the place is left as or better than you found it. All rubbish and waste to be taken with you.
Important Information to know before booking:
ALL GUESTS/VISITORS MUST BE BOOKED IN BEFORE ENTERING OUR PROPERTY

Welcome to your dream destination!!
We have two different locations available in Kangaroo Island with some options of sites in each.
FIRST LOCATION:
EMU BAY HIDEAWAY-30 hectares of peace, mainly vegetated with Kangaroo Island Narrow-leaved Mallee (Eucalyptus cneorifolia, a nationally-protected ecological community). Kangaroos and wallabies are in abundance. It has a wonderful feeling of remoteness and seclusion yet is so close to iconic Emu Bay.
Those with 4WD may choose sites overlooking Shoal Bay towards Kingscote.
Alternatively, you may set up camp anywhere on the property. There is even one under-cover position with a concrete floor for those concerned about the weather.
There are no amenities so guests need to be 100% self-sufficient (including BYO drinking water and toilet) and leave no trace. It is a wild block and only five minutes from the iconic Emu Bay, where the white sandy beach runs for 4kms, most of which is backed by 10 to 20-meter-high dunes. It is one of the best beaches on the island with crystal-clear water.
SECOND LOCATION:
Farm Stay about 15 km from Emu Bay and 20km from the main town of Kingscote. This is an operating small sheep farm of over 100ha. For security reasons the exact location is not advertised, but will be disclosed upon arrival on Kangaroo Island.
There are several beautiful sites. This location is fairly central to most KI visitor attractions. It is a secure place to set up camp and have peace of mind that your belongings will be safe while you are away from the site. The host takes care to situate sites to give campers the feeling of exclusiveness.
NOTES;
Check with me before lighting a campfire - this depends on the season and risk. Dogs are permitted if well controlled (register visiting dogs with local council).
IMPORTANT: As I have very limited access to the Internet, It is preferred that if you have questions, you can text or call me, Rosalie, on 0490485123. Please note - all bookings MUST still go through the Hipcamp system, no exceptions.
Kangaroo Island is serviced by regular ferry - check SeaLink for details. As the service requires advance bookings, please secure your passage to the island before booking your site. Thank you.

We had a great overnight stay at 'The Hut' and were well looked after by Sam. We were greeted with a gift basket and escorted to our site which had a beautiful view over the hills for sunset. Highly recommend this site as long as you have a 4wd as the ascent is quite steep. Loved it and will be back.

We have now stayed here twice and it was another tremendous group of experiences for our whole family. Everything was wonderful and Sam and Chris are the best hosts and taught us about all their animals at feeding time. So very thoughtful on all aspects. I can believe how lucky we were to stay again. I won't forget the Echidna I saw by chance, first one in my life I have seen in the wild : )

A magical part of South Australia. The historical ruin, including the intact giant stone chimney, was great to explore. Loads of open space for the kids and a relaxing fire in the huge fire pit at the end of the day. We were lucky to have several clear night where we saw shooting stars a plenty. Very accommodating and friendly hosts made our evening better.

Great private and quiet spot. Right next to a dry creek bed, our kids had a ball exploring the creek and climbing up and down the rock piles. Trish gave clear and precise instructions on how to find our camp well in advance. Would recommend.

Spectacular views on every direction. Great find. Very cool to have sheep wandering through. Longdrop was close and clean.
Perfect for one or two tents or trailers.
Peter and Trish were great hosts, friendly and helpful. Good communication prior to arrival and checked in with us during the stay.
We had a peaceful time at edgehill and being so close to Adelaide, we will be back soon.

Great place for camping, and to relax and refresh. Just under the sky and top of the hills. Warm welcome from the host. Lovely animals. This was our second time in less than a year. Highly recommend to everyone if they are nature lover, and prefer quite but enjoyable time.

Such an amazing stay, we were greeted upon arrival and shown to where we could camp. The area is big enough that we could select a site that was most relevant to us. While they have other sites, you are so far spaced away I never saw or heard anyone else. We were able to feed the animals, the owners were very patient and knowledgeable taking the time to explain little things to my 6 year old daughter as we went. My daughter said this was one of her best camping trips, and I put it down to the site and owners. Thanks - will be back!

Lovely place, beautiful scenery. In future I'd go for an unpowered site if possible as they're a bit more private, but no complaints overall.

Loved our stay at Noorla farm!
While the weather turned leading up to our our stay Sam was kind enough to change us to the hut site so we could use the shelter.
Beautiful views over the valley with and without the fog.
Kids loved being a part of feeding time with all the lovely animals.
10/10 would recommend
