Our stunning 2000 acre working Cattle property offers this beautiful private camping retreat right on the bank of the Severn River in the Ashford area. Our camping sites are located far enough from each other so that we can offer complete privacy during your stay where you will have no other campers around you for literally kilometers. You can see more of our property by searching 'River Camping Ashford Dan Proud'. Our part of the Severn River offers many large fishing holes with excellent fishing for Murray Cod, Yellow Belly and Catfish, we request that you only catch and release please. The river is also great for kayaking, swimming and boating and has very large areas of small rapids along river. Relax around the fire pit in the evenings and enjoy our beautiful sunsets and star gazing, in the mornings you can enjoy the sounds of the beautiful bird song. The area is abundant with wildlife, including native birds, platypus and koalas. We are also located only 10kms from Pindari Dam which is another great spot for all water based activities. We are 10kms from Pindari Adventure Park which is a great spot to take kids. We are 25kms from Macintyre Falls and the Kwiambal National Parks which has a number of beautiful walks you can enjoy. Ben Falls, Goat Rock, Reedy Creek Winery and Zappers Winery are all close by as well. Campers must stay within the designated camping area whilst on the property. We have provided a fire pit for your enjoyment and can arrange firewood to be available upon request. Campers must be fully self sufficient and take all waste with them on departure.

Site 4- Severn River Camping 🏕

Sit, stare and unwind

Severn River a magnificent relaxing river to swim in, sit beside and simply stare and unwind. We only stayed one night on our way through to Inverell but will stay longer next time

Site 4- Severn River Camping 🏕

We had the most relaxing and peaceful stay. Susannah is absolutely lovely, very helpful and ensured we had everything we needed. The property is beautiful - our campsite was right on the river’s edge and secluded. Despite other people staying on the other sites, we did not hear or see them. Lovely to hear the birds first thing in the morning, and watch the geese swimming around; we even saw a platypus - how lucky were we? A beautiful place. Highly recommend it. Thank you Susannah - we will definitely stay again.

As a very experienced traveler I’ve never met a more welcoming host. Susanna and her family are true blue. If you want to experience true country hospitality stay a while.

Site 3 - Severn River Camping 🏕

Sensational River Paradise

We had a great stay at Fernlee Station. There was a initial mix up with our site but Susannah sorted that out and all was good. Site 3 is beautiful, a bit of a steep entry into it but we managed to get 2 caravans and 4WD’s in no problems. Swimming, kayaking, fishing and relaxing was on our agenda and all were successfully achieved. We had 2 little dogs with us and they had a great time as well. Just a note that that the first site that we stayed on (1?) although beautiful did have a lot of burrs that stuck to our fluffy doggie. I don’t think this would be a problem for short haired dogs or at the other sites, certainly not a problem at site 3. Also, please clean up after your pets when you leave, unlike the people before us 💩 Thoroughly recommend Fernlee Station and Susannah is a delightful host.
