Come camp along the beautiful Wilson River on a working cattle property. Shady, grassy campsites by a flowing river, just 25 minutes drive from Port Macquarie. Check in time is strictly prior to 7pm. Firewood and Eggs can be purchased on arrival. The camp area includes toilets, a basic camp shed, where campers can make use of the picnic table, stainless steel food preparation bench and camp fire pit. There are only 2 sites available with power which is included in the site price. Check out our extras like eggs and firewood. Fresh honey also available sometimes during the year. Toilet block newly built. Early check in and late checkout available on request. Laundry services available on request. If you have 3 or more children please call me for a discount. Kids will love the farm tour (4.30pm to 5.30pm daily) for the feeding of chickens, ducks, bunny rabbits, horse, donkeys, sheep and goats. It's an excellent area for mountain bike riding as well! Kayaks available for free. Don't have a caravan, we have partnered up with Wrighty's Caravan Hire and Repairs. linktr.ee/wrightyscaravans. They offer family caravans delivered, setup ready for you to enjoy. Pets allowed but you must have on lead when walking around the property near cattle. Note a maximum of 2 dogs per camp site. Rules: 1. For the piece and quiet of other campers all check-ins must be before 4.30pm during the colder months. Check ins after 7pm may be turned away in busy times. 2. No Fireworks - this is very unsettling for our livestock 3. 9pm quiet time. 4. No drones in the camping area, for the privacy of other campers 5. Generators are allowed for short period of time but not permitted after 8pm. 6. Dogs on leads when walking around the farm - Limit of 2 dogs per camp site. Rick and I thank you for your support in these matters.

Rick and Cheryl went above and beyond to make our stay peaceful and playful. Their communication prior and during our stay was excellent. This was a working getaway for us. So we could work during the day then enjoy a swim in the afternoon followed by a quiet evening with a glass of wine. We explored the area beyond the electric fence to find a lovely spot by the river. This area was shallow and great for sitting in flowing water on a hot day. The grass is soft under bare feet, I don’t know how they maintain such beautiful lawns. The toilets are clean and well kept. We will definitely be back.

It’s very obvious the Hosts have put a lot of work into making this HipCamp site the best it can be. From immaculate long drop loos to playground for the kids and access to the River. Eggs & Firewood if needed, not much more you could wish for. Quiet night with the sound of the River in the background. 5 Star ⭐️

We stayed on Site 1 which was powered, close to the river and swings. Was a fantastic place to stay for a few nights on our travels. The animal feeding each afternoon was an absolute hit with our kids with Cheryl and Rick putting in a lot of effort to make it a great experience.

Can't recommend camping here enough! As a mum travelling solo with her 4 year old I was so thrilled to find a very kid friendly and safe environment with everything we could hope for. A magical creek, play equipment, fire pits, toilets and new friends! Not to mention the animal feeding and wonderful hosts who's kindness and generosity shon through their welcome and support during our visit. Will be back on our trip down south! Tell all of your friends :D

Nice flat and mowed campsites with plenty of space between sites. Short stroll through an old Casuarina forest dotted with stag and elk horn ferns to get to the crystal clear river. Our dog loved it too. We will definitely be back.

We had an amazing last-minute getaway at this beautiful farm. The property was peaceful, well maintained, and the perfect spot to unwind. The hosts were incredibly accommodating and even allowed us to leave our caravan on-site after checkout while we visited Wild Bull, which we really appreciated. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing escape.

Thank you soooo .. much, Rick & Cheryl for allowing me to stay at your beautiful property! The sites are spacious, the grass was lush and Cheryl’s daughter even comes around to deliver freshly baked cakes and biscuits (if you’ve ordered them) Rick brings firewood and Cheryl is a delight to chat with. I loved the ability to use the kayaks not needing to bring my own.

What a beautiful spot. Lots of space to choose from, close to the river. Dog friendly. Clean and convenient facilities. It was a great touch when Cheryl came around in the afternoon selling fresh eggs and cakes. (Which were delicious). Only slight downfall was there wasn't much shade at our site and by the river as it was a scorcher of a weekend. We will be back in the cooler months! 🫶

We have just stayed 3 nights at Bundilla River Camp and had a wonderful experience. The hosts are great communicators and keep the camp area very well maintained. The drop toilets are the best I’ve ever used. There are kayaks, body boards and even some kids bikes free to use. The access to the river is easy and clean. The water is so nice to swim in here. You can purchase farm fresh eggs and a selection of home baked goods. I can recommend the chocolate cake, lemon cake and jam drop biscuits. Also don’t think the farm feeding tour is just for kids us 4 adults really enjoyed it Thank you Cheryl and Rick for a wonderful experience
