Lower Lila Retreat is nestled on the banks of the beautiful Warrego River, just 22km off the bitumen from both the Cunnamulla–Bourke Road and the Hungerford–Bourke Road. This peaceful bush retreat offers a range of accommodation options including four modern, fully equipped two-bedroom cabins, each with private water views. With no TV, internet, or mobile reception, the cabins are the perfect place to unplug and unwind. Guests can also enjoy powered and unpowered caravan sites along the riverbank, with shared toilets, showers, and a large community camp kitchen available. Explore the Warrego River by kayak or canoe (no motorboats allowed), try fishing or catching yabbies, or simply relax and enjoy the incredible sunsets, sunrises, and stargazing. Farm tours can be arranged with your local hosts, who are passionate about sharing knowledge of the region's wildlife, plants, and outback life. Meet friendly farm animals like alpacas, goats, horses, a donkey, chickens, and sheep. Bush tucker such as Quandong jam and yabbies are available to try, and there's even a private dirt airstrip for those wishing to fly in. The retreat also offers women’s weekends with shared accommodation, meals, group coaching, meditation, and bush walks. Private coaching sessions and tailored family or group packages can be arranged. The site can accommodate up to 30 guests across cabins and nearby shearer’s quarters, making it ideal for events, weddings, and gatherings. Swimming in the river is not recommended and children under 3 are not advised due to the large body of water. Pets are welcome but must be leashed or contained at all times and are not permitted in cabins or the kitchen due to allergies and farm safety. As this is a working farm, guests are encouraged to contact us via text, message, or email. If you have no reception, try the 2-way radio or call at the house.

RV site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 10 m
22k's off the bitumen from the Cunnamulla/ Bourke road, same from the Hungerford to Bourke road. River/dam is not suitable for boats and we don't like anyone disturbing the bird life or other guests. Plenty of unpowered caravan sites available on the banks of the beautiful Warrego River. There's plenty of free wood you can collect for a camp fire, yabbies (fresh water cray fish) please burn the shells, so you don't pollute the water or bush and don't be greedy and take more than you can eat, there's fish as well. There's lots of bird life, beautiful sunsets and sunrises over the expanse of water, with an incredible view of the stars at night. We love showing off our piece of paradise to our guests and offer farm tours at a price, when we can fit you in, we are both local to the area and can answer most of your questions about the district, plants, animals and bird life. Our place is not recommend for children under 3 years old because of the expanse of water. You can bring your fur babies, we just ask that you keep them on a leash or contained at all times, for their safety and our livestock (we 10/80 bait for wild dogs).

Camping at Lower Lila was exactly what we were after. Private, safe, and great access to facilities like toilet and shower, fresh water, camp kitchen and plenty of fire wood. Camping on the edge of the river was a treat. Don’t underestimate the trip to the site - it takes some time albeit not a problem. Owners are friendly and willing to lend a hand if needed but will leave you alone if that’s what you want.

I recently stayed at this Hipcamp and I loved camping on the waters edge, plenty of room. Host made sure I knew where everything was, felt very comfortable. Facilities were great - hot shower, clean bathroom, large communal space and well equiped kitchen. Would recommend for large and small groups
