Located 19 km due east of the famous historical village of Tenterfield the working, cattle breeding, property "Mindoo" has recently opened its gates to campers. Framed by the rugged border range National Parks "Mindoo" is 1100 acres of rolling green hills dissected by the pure, cascading, waters of the Cataract River which provide a number of private riverside campsites. Campers are encouraged to meander along the continually changing River and explore its many secluded swimming holes and enjoy the abundant wildlife that cohabitates with the Angus/Wagyu cow herd. Direct access to the neighbouring National Parks and State Forests offers an array of day trips to hikers, mountain bikers, or horse riders where they can discover the natural treasures of Basket Swamp and Boonoo Boonoo Falls, Woolool Woolooni, among others. For those who require a little more comfort, and lets face it we all do at times, the Mindoo Cabin is available. Featuring three bedrooms, open plan living/dining/kitchen,and a shady deck overlooking the River the cabin sleeps eight and still allows visitors to partake in all the adventures that "Mindoo" offers with the benefit of a comfortable rest when the day is done. Unfortunately horse riding is no longer covered by our insurance policy. You are able to bring your horses, however evidence of your own insurance policy must be provided. Be as adventurous or as restful as you please as both options are freely available. Mountain Biking, Hiking, or just riding your hammock and relaxing we are sure you will enjoy your time at "Mindoo". All of our river sites are designated and are space apart. There is approximately 4km gravel road to get to the property. Mobile reception is patchy (telstra) you may need to get to the top of a hill for reception. Very little or no reception for other networks. As most of our sites are on the river and have farm tracks to access, if it is wet we may have to move you to a different site. 4wds are recommended for all sites. We have recently levelled the camping area at Rockpool Junction and The Falls, the grass is slowly returning. (August 2024) Send us a message if you have any questions.

The Park
Amazing!!!
Beautiful spot at mindoo. We enjoyed our stay so much. Listening to the running creek, wildlife & being off grid was exactly what we all needed. The hosts were very helpful & we were surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Highly recommend & will definitely love to come back. Thanks so much for having us ❤️

Platypus
Mini Vista at Mindoo
Platypus was a flat easy access site for our 2WD Ford Transit van. It had a lovely vista looking down on the creek and surrounds.Easy track (including small bridge across rock outcrops) down to a deep water hole fed by a little waterfall. River sand under foot to enter though our lab scrambled in and out everwhere including up and down the waterfall. Prue very communicative. We only stayed over night but will stay longer when we are next in the area

Twin Falls #1
We stayed at Twin Falls Camp from December 31st to January 4th with our two little kids, Skye (2) and Billy (4), and it was absolutely perfect for a young family. The swimming holes were stunning, and Twin Falls itself was truly spectacular. The camp is very private and isolated, which made for such a peaceful getaway. The shallow water was ideal for our little ones to safely enjoy swimming, and our dog, Jess, had the best time exploring the area. The host was fantastic, and their property is just amazing. We’d rate this camp 10/10—perfect for young families or anyone looking for a private, nature-filled escape. Thank you for having us and sharing this incredible spot. We’ll definitely be back! Cheers, Scott, Michelle, Billy, Skye and Jessie

Twin Falls #1
Camping next to a creek! 😍
Our first Hipcamp experience and an amazing one! Twin Falls is a fantastic spot, so beautiful, quiet and peaceful. The little creek is just perfect for cooling down in the summer. It was utter bliss camping here for a few nights after Christmas. There isn't much (any?) shade in the Twin Falls #1 site but we ended up spending a large part of the day down on the little beach at the creek anyway. There's also a super clean compost toilet now but it is a bit of a hike up the hill so you have to "plan" your toilet excursion a bit and not rush off at the last minute! :) If you had to share Twin Falls with another group (since there are now two sites), it probably wouldn't be as serene or give you that feeling of isolation. There's also some car noise from the Bruxner Highway but it didn't impinge upon our camping experience at all. Prue was easy to communicate with and didn't even mind that we arrived so late in the day. Would definitely return! 🤩
