Barron River Retreat -EXCLUSIVE USE
Peaceful stay
We enjoyed tent camping on Oliver’s property. Directions were clear and it was easy to find. Lovely private shady flat area for our tent and exclusive use just for us. We saw the platypus. The sound of the river cascading was calming, we enjoyed our peaceful stay.

Barron River Retreat -EXCLUSIVE USE
We loved the sound of the river, it was so soothing. The site is beautifully maintained and has state of the art composting toilet, hot shower and a great camp fire. A super venue for couples and families. Larger groups would go far to find such a shady, tidy and well set up spot. Thanks Oliver, 😊

Barron River Retreat -EXCLUSIVE USE
We hired the place as a group and there was ample space for 14 of us. We loved the hot shower and toilet, paddling upstream, the shaded communal space and hanging out on the river bank. It feels like world's away- so private and secluded. And the platypus was super friendly.

Barron River Retreat -EXCLUSIVE USE
We loved our camping at the Barron River retreat. Beautifully nestled amongst the trees, you are awoken softly by the dawn chorus of the native birds. The Barron river behind the site provided a calming atmosphere. We even got to say hello to Oliver’s curious cows! Our doggos also had an amazing time - we even took them out on the kayaks which they thoroughly enjoyed. We did get a few grass ticks, but nothing that some tweezers couldn’t handle! Oliver was so accomodating and so friendly and easy to contact. We cannot wait to come back!
