1 night at The Good Life Camping

Thanks Dan & Ro, wonderful hosts. I was able to truly sit back & unwind. Thank you, Chris

2 nights at The Good Life Camping

I didnt end up staying at the original camp site, as the weather was bad and my 2wd wouldn't have made it. Dan and Ro gave me an alternative dry camp spot in their top paddock which I really appreciated. Will be back for when the weather is better!

Weekend Trip to A Native Escape

Beautiful beautiful property & nice hosts Would 100% recommend the view is amazing

Weekend Trip to A Native Escape

We loved spending the night in the A-frame. It was so quiet up on the mountain side, nestled between the beautiful trees. We had stargazing from our beds at night too! Pack light as the walk up to reach the A-frame gets the heart rate up! We would absolutely visit again!

1 night at Kooinda Farm

Lovely stop along my way. Beautiful stars and greenery :)

Weekend Trip to Little Pine Creek Farm Valery

We loved our stay at little pine creek. It was a beautiful and peaceful area by the creek. The location was great and it was a lovely scenic drive out to the promised lands.

2 nights at Kooinda Farm

Great patch of grass with views of rolling hills, close to Nambucca for mtb racing and close to Scotts head for the beach and waves. Nice and quiet with the whole place to ourselves. Beautifully warm showers.

Weekend Trip to A Native Escape

Just so beautiful. Thank you again for having us. We would love to come back

1 night at Oceans Reach

Easy to find late at night just off the highway. I only stayed a short time to rest on a road trip but was so grateful you offer your land on Hipcamp in this way, thank you

2 nights at Black Mountain Nymboida River 4/AWD

We recently stayed at this incredible campsite and was genuinely impressed! The amenities were far beyond what we expected—clean facilities with a hot shower, which felt amazing after a long day of exploring. The site itself is thoughtfully laid out with tracks running through the property, perfect for short hikes or morning strolls to take in the peaceful surroundings. What made the experience truly special were the hosts—they were absolutely lovely, welcoming, and full of great local tips, they genuinely care about creating a great experience for their guests. Their warmth added so much to the overall vibe of the place. Can’t wait to come back!

1 night at Karangi Waters @ Coffs

beautiful location and amazing for such a good price 😁😁

1 night at Karangi Waters @ Coffs

This place is exactly what I love about HipCamping. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us. The cabin was rustic and could do with some maintenance but it was warm and comfortable with everything that was needed. The highlight was the view that I woke up to. I absolutely 100% loved staying here.

2 nights at Yarrawin Camping

The photos don't do this place justice. It's absolutely beautiful on the river. Our two kelpies had an amazing time swimming and playing. The horses came up into our campsite and tried to steal our bread rolls which was hilarious. Ian and Bobbi were lovely and the complimentary brownies and firewood were much appreciated. We will be back.

2 nights at Karangi Waters @ Coffs

Beautiful rural campsite on 4WD track with serene country valley views and the added bonus of a retro cabin to use should you desire. We opted to stay in the cabin as we had some wild weather and it was comfy and safe. The walk up the track to the top of the mountain is well worth it and our dog Archie loved that he was welcome to join us. Thank you Jennifer for a beautiful spot to rest.

Weekend Trip to Bush by the Sea

Lovely place, plenty of fire wood to scavenge and awesome fire pit. The horses were a nice touch to be around. Plenty of room and felt very safe. Could hear the ocean as we started to go to sleep.

1 night at Little Pine Creek Farm Valery

My partner and I had an amazing time at Little Pine Creek. Our host Janet was super accommodating throughout our stay, which made us feel very welcome. The views on the farm are spectacular, we loved walking up to the vantage point just past the dam, where you can see the Dorrigo mountains over the tree line. On top of this, the stars on a clear night were like none we have seen before, I wish the pictures I took did them justice, as they truly were mesmerising. Janet has an abundance of firewood to purchase, which is perfect for having a campfire and stargazing. We also bought some fresh, free range eggs which my partner loved. The farm is very spacious, with various spots to choose from, our favourite was next to the dam, where you wake up to the view of the water lily’s and the sound of all the interesting birds. We thought the location was great, only a short drive from the highway, and near a town called Bellingen which is definitely worth a visit, with the promise lands close by in one direction, and Dorrigo mountains in the other. The toilet attached to the farmhouse is handy, but as there is only one it is ideal to be self contained. Overall, we had a great stay and thought the cost was very reasonable considering the scenery and location. Highly recommend! Thank you for having us Janet, we hope to see you again soon ☺️

10 nights at Kooinda Farm

Beautiful quiet property within easy 20min drive to some of the best beaches. Kangaroos, birds....fies allowed. Can't ask for more. Linda was a lovely host too.

5 nights at Yarrawin Camping

Loved our break at Ian & Bonnie's property, particularly the beautiful waterhole and beach which my 3 year old granddaughter loved. Plenty of open space with weed and prickle free grass, resulting in plenty of running around barefoot. Great fire pit with 1st nights firewood free! Loved our daily visits from the friendly horses and cows and occasional kangaroo. Our welcome gift provided by Bonnie was also very much appreciated and enjoyed. Would definitely return.
