Embrace the rustic essence of camping without the frills Situated on 29 acres of untouched bushland with excellent mobile coverage, only a 10minute drive from Tea Gardens beaches, our newly established outback retreat is a perfect farm-stay for campers to escape the crowds and reconnect with nature. We welcome self-sufficient campers who have their own toilet/shower facilities. All campers must provide portable toilets used by all their guests and leave no trace. As we are new to Hip camp we still do not offer water or electricity. We will be upgrading with time as nothing happens in a hurry here which you will feel :) Pets are more than welcome, however they must be well behaved and controlled. We do have a very friendly farm dog named Annie who everyone falls in love with (refer reviews fro reference and pics) Campfires are depending on fire restrictions, and all fires are to be contained either by your own firepit or a rented one from us. Access to the property is easy via a grated dirt road 500m off the highway which is very handy for a quick stop or stay as long as you want. Please NOTE! Adress in Google maps is accurate. For some strange reason Apple maps is not as accurate (sorry folks, I have reported it to Apple so watch this space) Please follow instructions in pics to access either Maestros or Pops paddock. ALSO: If it has been raining or is forecast to rain, the ground can get quite wet underfoot so please check conditions and plan accordingly with appropriate recovery gear. Check with us before booking if in any doubt. BEFORE purchasing firepits or wood check "rural fire service" website for any fire ban info.

    Viney Creek Retreat offers a convenient overnight stop with easy access to dog-friendly beaches and nearby towns like Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest. Campers consistently mention Annie, the friendly dog, who adds a warm and welcoming presence to the site. Despite some highway noise, the location is appreciated for its accessibility and peaceful surroundings. The hosts are noted for being responsive and accommodating, often providing firewood for cozy campfires under starry skies.

    We ended up in Maestro's Paddock instead of Pops because it suited us better. Great convenient location. Approx 15 mins from beautiful dog friendly beaches. Annie the dog came to check on us often which my 11yo son loved - he usually whinges about going camping but didn't complain at all this time. Yes you'll hear a bit of noise from the highway because it's situated just off the highway but it was fine with us because of the convenience of the campsite.

    We stayed last night at Viney Creek Retreat on our way to Taree, and it was the perfect, handy stopover just off the highway. Access to the property was super easy, and we enjoyed a level site. There was very little traffic noise, making for a peaceful night. The hosts were very responsive and had arranged a wheelbarrow of firewood ready to go for our arrival. We absolutely loved sitting around the campfire under a truly spectacular night sky. We were greeted by their lovely dog, Annie. While she is very friendly, she did make herself quite at home on our mat, which our 6-month-old miniature schnauzer wasn’t overly thrilled about! Overall, it's a great spot to stop over, and we highly recommend it.
