Riverview Kiah is offering one campsite nestled on a very quiet part of the Kiah/Towamba river. To minimize impact on neighbors and make your stay more enjoyable, there is only one campsite offered on the whole property, so apart from the owners you will have it all to yourselves. You will need to be a self-contained camper who brings their own camping toilet/shower. We offer access to water via a 1000l pod that is close to the campsite. This water is drinkable and may be used to fill jerry cans/ wash etc. We just ask you to please be frugal with usage. The campsite is situated on a grassy knoll a mere 30m away from your own private beach, which is ideal for fishing kayaking and swimming. The Kiah / Towamba river is well renowned for its excellent fishing. Live bait or soft plastics are best. Live bait can be sourced at nearby Nullica beach or alternatively, frozen prawn's, pipis or salted pilchards also yield success. Some of the species that call the river home are, Flathead, Bream, Luderick, Whiting, Estuary Pearch, Jewfish, Mullet and Flounder. If you bring your kayaks, canoe or roof top tinny the river is very picturesque with unique photo opportunities and an abundance of wildlife. You can head upstream for a way but if you're feeling up to it, it's about a 2.5-hour paddle (at a slow steady pace) to the mouth of the river where Davidsons whaling station is located, as well as the view across the bay to Eden. If you time it right, you can go and return with the tide. Two kayaks and life jackets are provided with all bookings so that people without their own equipment are able to explore the pristine waterway. There is a large firepit near the river that may be utilized as long as there is no total fire ban in effect. If you have your own firepit that can also be used but there are to be no fires on beach or bare earth. Firewood can be provided at an extra cost, (please select in extras, 1 bundle will last 2 nights on average). Directions will be provided 48 hours before arrival; you are welcome to head straight to camp although if around I will meet and greet you upon arrival.

Trent, the host, is frequently commended for his excellent communication and thoughtful touches, such as providing kayaks and fresh produce.

We had a great stay at this private campsite. The location is beautiful, with lovely views over the river and perfect weather while we were there—comfortable temperatures with a nice breeze. The firepit was a highlight, great for morning coffee or relaxing in the afternoon watching the river and fish jumping. Our dogs loved it too, with warm water, good swimming spots, sandy areas, and a private beach to play on. It’s a really peaceful spot, with plenty of birdlife and a well-kept, bindi-free grassed area so we could go barefoot. Easy access down to the river made it even better. Trent was a fantastic host and very accommodating. The fresh eggs and homemade sausages were a great bonus. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.

Returning for the second time, we had an amazing trip with the family. Trent makes an excellent host, providing clear directions and providing a generous supply of firewood. While at the river, the family had an amazing experience; when low tide occurred further upstream from the campsite, the children played on the sandbanks in the center of the river. I would certainly recommend this place to anyone.

Trent has a beautiful spot, he has put a lot of effort in to the camp site. Was able to purchase chicken eggs and Trent greeted us after we settled in for a bit. Caught plenty of fish , walked along the sand dunes when tide was low also gave the kayaks a go. Eden town around the corner which came in super handy. Definitely coming back.

What a hidden gem. The well kept farm right beside the river was a sight to behold. Beautiful wildlife, magnificent river and well kept amenities showing pride the owner has of this place. Kids loved access to the river using the supplied canoes and life jackets and we all loved the grand fire place during the night. For sure we will be back again as we only got the explore Eden and the river to a small degree. As much as I'd love to keep this place a secret, it would be doing the owner a disservice. Thanks again for your great communication and hope to see you again soon.

Absolutely amazing. Location is so private and many activities to do. The host Trent is a legend, from pre arrival and also during our stay, Trent made sure we were comfortable. This spot is supplied with water, kayaks, life jackets, insect repellent, even fishing rod holders for the river(nice touch) and more… all the things to keep your stay comfy and fun. Would absolutely recommend this hip camp and we’ll definitely be back.

Private tranquility!

Tent · With kids

This was such a great spot to take the kids. We had fun kayaking and took our own stand up paddle board. It felt very private & peaceful. We still had 1-2 bars of phone reception which was good, wouldn’t bother me if it didn’t have reception but handy to know I guess. We seen plenty of wildlife; eagles, a deer and a red belly black snake.. on the dirt road on our way out as we were leaving thankfully! The owner was very pleasant to deal with and very hospitable.

Lovely spot on the river in Kiah with superb views. We had a great time here - would love to come back. Super site - we had a tent as well as a caravan, worked so well. Very well appointed with potable water and a great fire pit. Our two dogs had a great time running around the site and along the sand bar while we paddled in the kayaks. Trent was a great host. So many birds around the site. My in-laws wished they’d brought their binoculars and their cameras. Superb!

Had an absolute great time camping at The Riverfront. Site was super clean and exactly as described. It was fantastic having the car and tent so close to the river - best of both sand and grass. Communication with Trent was a breeze - clear and responsive, and he provides you all the info you need to get there easily and have a great time! (Thanks again) We’ll definitely be coming back to this spot very soon and couldn’t recommend it enough. A1!
