Echoes in the Valley Gatton Qld

Really nice spot! A bit hard to find as gps is not going the right place. But if you follow instruction is okay. Really quiet and peaceful. Thank you

Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quiet, nature-filled escape. The directions to the property were clear, and hosts were friendly and responsive. A flat tent area with fire pit and views of the Lockyer Valley.

Camping with animals!!

We found this campsite during our trip from Japan, and it truly became one of the most unforgettable places of our lives. The sunset and scenery were absolutely beautiful, and our children were fascinated by the daily activities. We loved meeting the lovely birds, the wild animals, and especially riding on the proud tractor that took us around! We’ll definitely be back again. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories!

Met with Geoffrey who was very kind and guided us up to a higher camp ground. Nice 4x4 drive up the hill and was greeted with a private camp and with a beautiful view. Shame there was a fire ban but the sunset and star gazing was fantastic 👌

Geoffrey’s hospitality is truly unmatched — he went out of his way to help us with everything we needed (and even things we didn’t realise we needed, but absolutely did). The campsites are well maintained, secluded from others, and easily accessible. There’s heaps of timber available, plus plenty of space for big groups or families with kids. Sadly, they’ll be moving on soon, so we’ll definitely try to come back before you go! :D

Francine was so helpful with follow up contact and directions. Provided escort to the camp site up the 4WD track Great high point outlook over the Lockyer/Tent Hill valley. Level well grassed location with fire pits and toilet. A quiet peaceful location ideal to refresh and recharge in an area of lush farmlands.

Beautiful quiet spot best for self-contained camping. The trees are a little higher now so part of the view is covered, but you can still experience a gorgeous sunset and sunrise amongst the birds. Recommend bringing mosquito spray since there were one or two around. Thank you Francine & team for the lovely night!

We had a great day at this spot, the hosts were absolutely lovely and welcoming. We did have to rebook because they couldn’t provide the picnic add-on we booked a month in advance, which was a bit disappointing, but it all worked out fine in the end. The views were incredible and made the trip worthwhile

We had a great time camping at this site! It was my first time camping in Australia and the location was absolutely beautiful and tucked away with lots of privacy! It really allows you to getaway from your daily life and be among nature. Geoffrey was very kind and even helped us with our air mattress issues, and letting us feed some of the very cute animals on the property!

Beautiful view and lovely hosts. Secluded from both noise and light pollution but close enough to Brissy. Will definitely be back. Thanks Francine and Geoffrery!

Site 3 - Echoes in the Valley Camp 1

Great views and multiple spots for us to choose from. Couple of the tracks are on the steeper side and on clay soil. If it rains stay at the sites further down the mountain or be prepared to wait for the tracks to dry out! Would stay again!

Absolutely beautiful spot we had. Very friendly couple greeting us and guided us to the campsite. We were all alone and it was the best! Lovely walk to the top Dogs were looooving it The only weird thing was when another couple checked in late Saturday night they set them up inbetween the nearest site and us. Of all places they were 70m away from us which wasn’t even a site. I found that a bit weird but besides that super helpful and they showed us the goats, camels, sheep, ducks,… so cool!! Definitely recommend it

Camping and camel feeding!

Tent ·

My partner and I loved camping at Echoes in the Valley! The property provided amazing views from every angle. We were allowed to drive along the tracks which displayed more breath taking scenery the property provided. Francine and her lovely staff made the stay relaxing and free of worry. My partner and I enjoyed the night under the stars by a campfire roasting marshmallows. You can opt in for additional activities the site provides such as camel feeding. We went during breakfast and was definitely an experience you can’t pass. Would definitely recommend this place to those that are wanting to escape from the city for a night and explore the surrounding exhibits.

A beautiful starry night at EchoesV

Tent · With kids ·

As I wondered where to go this Easter, “Echoes in the Valley” caught my eye. It was our family's first time camping on an Australian farm, and since we were going to spend a night out in the wild on our own, we felt both excited and a little nervous. When we met Francie, she gave us a warm welcome and instantly made us feel at ease. She kindly showed us three different camping spots, and we chose the last one—it was our favourite. I really appreciated her patience and guidance. Before sunset, Francie brought us firewood and even taught me how to start a fire. She left a lighter with us so we could light the fire whenever we wanted. (By the way, I forgot to return the lighter—my apologies!) The firewood was a great value—just $20—and it kept the fire going from 6 p.m. to midnight. I truly enjoyed it, not just for its warmth and light, but also for the pleasant scent of the wood. I’m not sure what type it was, but it smelled wonderful. The view from the hill was beautiful. Although the bathrooms were located down the hill, the distance from our campsite was manageable, which worked out fine for us. We had a lovely time. Wildflowers were blooming everywhere on the hillside in shades of yellow and red. When morning came, we stepped out of our tent for a short hike around the area before heading home. It was a peaceful and refreshing way to end our stay. Also, a big thanks for the dragon fruit and limes—they were a lovely treat!

Site 3 - Echoes in the Valley Camp 1

The site we stayed at had a lot of debris around from an old hut. The owners are aware and informed us of this. The site is a work in progress. This site had a toilet, and this is why we opted for it. Next time I would opt for one of the spots further up the hill. These other sites are better, level ground with beautiful views of the surrounding area. The tracks are great for a bit of 4x4 driving. Beautiful sunsets and peaceful surroundings. The owners were kind enough to allow a friend of ours to visit for a couple of hours.

Peace and Quiet with views!!!

Rustic Cabin

WOW! Views forever ! Book this place if: -you don’t want to setup tents -you like shower/toilet facilities -you like not having to bring the kitchen sink - you love listening to the crickets and enjoying the stunning view without interruptions. It’s not a palace but it’s comfortable and peaceful! Plus it’s fully self sufficient with solar panels providing lighting and hot water. Francine is a brilliant host and gave us a ride up the mountain on her quad.

Amenities not as listed

Tent · Group trip ·

The scenery surrounding the campsite is picturesque, overlooking the surrounding valley. The site itself left a lot to be desired however. First of all the site still says shower is available, however there is none. There is no potable water to or available at the site and the toilet is a step below your standard drop toilet found in your run of the mill Qld parks campsite. Given the cost per person, it's not unreasonable to expect such amenities. Lovely spot if only the amenities were as advertised. As it stands I wouldn't recommend unless you are actually fully self contained.

Stunning views across the valleys south of Gatton, and very private and isolated site. Exposed, so any winds are a challenge, and certainly not for any vehicle but a high clearance 4WD. The property itself isn’t pristine remnant vegetation, of course, but you’ll be looking far rather than close, so it doesn’t matter.
