Maverick's Rest - Alpaca Farm Stay
3 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Peterborough, SA
Welcome to Maverick's Rest, a serene escape nestled on the outskirts of Peterborough, South Australia, and connected with our working alpaca farm and newly planted lavender paddocks.
Our bush campsites offer a blend of natural beauty, rustic charm, and unforgettable experiences, with each carefully positioned amidst old native pines and offering views of both sunrise and sunset, with views of open farmland, distant hills, and animals doing their thing.
Each site features a sturdy pad to ensure you stay clear of prickles while defining your space, and a firepit.
Whilst the camp is an evolving work-in-progress, we currently require all campers to be fully self-contained, providing their own toilet, water, and power for a true off-grid experience.
The centrepiece of the campsite is an absolutely stunning stone ruin. We wish the walls could talk to tell us its story! We are currently working on making this space accessible to all our guests - with a communal fire pit and seating areas opening soon.
Want more?
- Add on an Alpaca Meet and Greet Experience, where you can meet and hand-feed our friendly alpaca herd, capturing selfies and learning fascinating facts about these amazing creatures. We are a working alpaca farm and during this experience you will meet our alpacas, llamas, camels and naughty pig!
- Indulge in our breakfast pack, featuring farm-fresh eggs, local bacon, and savory sausages.
Planning a group getaway? Take advantage of our group booking options and have the entire camp to yourselves, accommodating up to 8-10 vehicles for an exclusive retreat.
We are pet-friendly, however, please note that all animals must be supervised and kept on a lead at all times. As a working farm, we kindly ask that you refrain from allowing your animals to interact with ours for everyone's safety and peace of mind.
Use us as a base to explore Peterborough and surrounds.
Escape the ordinary and create lasting memories at Maverick's Rest as you travel through our region!
PS: Maverick was the name of our favourite stud male alpaca, and the dad to many of our babies. He was on TV, in weddings and the star of many a photo shoots. A true character, you would have loved him - just like we hope you love this campsite.

Yabbie Farm Bush Camp
7 sites · RVs, Tents500 acres · Wilmington, SA
Come and camp on our sustainable yabbie farm! A 500-acre property that sits on an aquifer with unlimited fresh water.
We have seven plus sites available for self-contained campers. You will need to be self-sufficient and leave no trace. You can pick your own spot and there is plenty of space - so you can be as secluded as you wish! All flat area
We offer a yabbie catching experience, contact us first for availability, $30 per person.
There are lots of bird species and wildlife here, as well as sheep roaming around.
You are welcome to enjoy a controlled campfire, and there is free firewood available. Fresh water available.
The property is located 12kms from the township of Wilmington, a sleepy country town boasting panoramic views (both Hancock's Lookout and Horrocks Pass) and some impressive walking trails through the Flinders Ranges in the area. In Wilmington, you will find a pub, a general store, coffeeshop and a variety of museums and a dumping spot.
We, your hosts, Anjo and Rob, live pretty much self-sufficient here - with solar power, water, vegetables, fruit, eggs, chicken meat, sheep meat, yabbies and marron. Everything is recycled, and nothing goes to waste - what we and the chickens and the sheep don’t eat will go to the compost/worm farm. The compost is reused in the veggie garden, excess eggs are boiled and fed to the yabbies and chooks, excess veggies will go to chooks, ducks and sheep. We grow carrots to feed to the yabbies. It’s a great lifestyle and we love it!
Our farm is a great homebase to explore the Flinders.
Explore the views and walks around Mount Remarkable, Mount Maria and Mount Brown, as well as the amazing sunrises and sunsets and starry night sky. There is an abundance of nearby hiking and biking opportunities including Alligator Gorge.
Seasonal farm produce available on request.
Options available for longer stays. If you would like to have a hands-on experience on a sustainable farm you could stay for free for 2 weeks (we can be flexible) in return for some caretaking while we visit our grandkids on Kangaroo Island. Jobs would be feeding animals, collect eggs and water vegetables.
Contact us if you are interested in caretaking. Hope to meet you all.

Wilkydoo Equine Connection
3 sites · RVs, Tents14 acres · Wilmington, SA
Your site will be near a dry creek bed near large trees in an open space where you may explore freely within the Creek Paddock which is about 5 acres.
This is a horse property of about 15 acres, so getting close to a horse is a strong possibility. Sunset and sunrise on the Flinders Ranges are beautiful, as are the morning clouds when they push up over the ranges. Mt Remarkable and the range running northward is what you will see. You will be greeted by wildlife, including Kangaroo and Euro, bird life, and many smaller critters who may be surreptitiously checking you out.
The site is located about 200 meters from the main house.
This is a natural space so the ground is undulating. Vans and campers will be able to level without issue providing you carry items to help you with this. The access is year-round with the exception of extreme fire danger periods.

Shingleback Shack
1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Port Pirie, SA
The Shingleback Shack is situated on a 1/4 acre costal block in Port Germein. It is only a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk to the town centre, main beach and jetty. Otherwise you can explore the stunning Southern Flinders Ranges just a 15 minute drive from the block.
You can either choose to bring your own bedding and stay in the shack or bring a caravan or tent and set up camp around it. The shack fits 1 - 2 people, and is an empty 1.2m x 2.4m room. The block is off gird, but there is access to water from a sink connected to a water tank.
There is also access to toilets and showers both in the Port Germein town centre or at the local truck stop the Perry's Tinman just up the road. In town you can also access a RV dump point, and water tap if additional water is required. There are also bins located at the corner of Taylor's Road and Port Germein Road or in the town centre. Please take all your waste with you.
I want to acknowledge that Port Germain sits on the land of the Nukunu People, who have native title claims in the area and the Flinders Ranges sits on the land of the Adnyamathanha people. I respect all elders past and present and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
