Welcome to my beautiful 100 acres that backs on to Springbrook National Park. There are crystal clear freshwater creeks. Most campsites next to the creek. The property is mostly natural bush with some cleared patches for camping and horse grazing. The road entering the property is damaged due to the resent rain and you will need to drive through water. Most cars are safe but if you have a low set car or if you are delicate with your car I would not recommend. Only 30 mins from natural arch and 20 mins to great fishing and crabbing in the tweed river. Dog friendly (must be well controlled no aggressive dogs). Drop toilets and hot showers. There are 2 cabins available each with private portable toilet and hot outdoor showers. Campfires permitted ( when fire bans not in place) and wood can be purchased in advance during booking process. No fire wood to be collected off property BYO or purchase in advance. Not a place for loud music and parties, happy for everyone to have fun but noise is restricted. If you are a disturbance to other campers you will be asked to leave without a refund. PLEASE READ THE CANCELLATION POLICY CAREFULLY BEFORE BOOKING!!!

Site 2 - Horse paddock site
Really great place in a peaceful location. Large site right next to the creek, well separated from any other sites. Clean toilets, and site easy to access without a 4wd, even with the little bit of road damage. Would love to come again.

Creek Site 1 Crystal Creek Ranch
We loved camping by the creek. There was plenty of room to pitch our tent, and lots of space for our dogs to run around. We were able to buy firewood and kindling onsite which saved precious car space. It was a short walk to composting toilets and a shower. Beautiful views, we will be back.

Site 1 - Fig Paddock Crystal Creek Ranch
Disappointing
I had a very disappointing experience at this campground. The host kicked us out for playing music at 6:28 PM, even though the posted rules clearly state that music is only prohibited after 8:30 PM. When we were asked to turn the music off, the owner made false accusations, claiming we threatened her, which was completely untrue. Her behavior was not only unprofessional but also aggressive, using intimidation tactics to force us to leave. This experience left a sour taste and overshadowed what could have been a pleasant stay. I would not recommend this campground based on the poor handling of this situation.

Quiet relaxing camp
We enjoyed our time here next to the creek, it was so nice not have to deal with noisy party goers. Just quiet relaxing space. The shower was hot 🔥 toilet where a short walk away, if your lucky you can buy some eggs of the owner and pat there friendly horse.will definitely be back again.

Great camping spot! Super relaxed environment with great facilities (hot water and composting toilet with some fantastic 3x TP). Kelly was super approachable and provided excellent check in/check out instructions. Very family friendly.
