Mt Barney Lodge is more than just a campground - it is an established Advanced Eco-tourism property - and it’s an invitation to reconnect with nature, challenge your hiking limits, and find inspiration in the wild. Nestled in the breathtaking McPherson Ranges, just 90 minutes from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, this retreat has been a sanctuary for adventurers and nature lovers for over 30 years. With sweeping views of Mt Barney, Mt Maroon, and Mt Gillies, the lodge offers a serene escape where grassy, shaded grounds meet the crystal-clear, rock-lined creek—perfect for swimming, paddling, or enjoying a peaceful picnic by the water. For those eager to explore, a variety of bushwalks begin right from the property, ranging from easy strolls to challenging hikes. Laminated maps and local insights help guide your journey. Wildlife thrives here in its natural state, offering unforgettable moments—watch wallabies with their joeys or catch a glimpse of the cheeky bandicoots at night. Whether you seek adventure, tranquility, or inspiration, Mt Barney Lodge is a place where you can breathe deeply, immerse yourself in nature, and leave with a renewed spirit.

Creekside General Campground

(11)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 10 · Vehicles under 20 m
Come and experience the beauty of our spacious, grassy campground, dotted with shaded trees and taking in stunning mountain views! This is a shared space with our other onsite campers at the front of the property that is bordered by the crystal clear freshwater creek. We don't designate specific sites, rather you get to choose campsite - shade vs winter sun, fireplace, mountain vs creek view, close to the amenities or use your self-contained onboard bathroom, camp in a big group or put more space between yourself and the other campers - the choice is yours. If you really want to get away from all the other campers, look at our other exclusive "Volcano View" campsite which is set well away from the general campground. As an eco-tourism retreat, we kindly ask that you leave pets and generators at home to help us preserve this peaceful environment. We provide composting and recycling to make your stay as sustainable as possible. Our amenities are clean, well-maintained, and include hot showers to ensure a comfortable camping experience. We can’t wait to welcome you!

Volcano View Campsite

100%
(6)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 12 · Vehicles under 12 m
This is a unique and stand-alone flat grassy camp site that has direct views to the volcanic plug of Mt Gillies. Enjoy with rocky cave-scape of this mountain, and the open skies that are shielded from light pollution and are spectacular for star gazing. This exclusive site is away from the general campground, and out of sight of all other guests and buildings on the property. We suggest guests BYO camp toilet and/or a camp shower (potted water is onsite) to minimise the need to walk to the amenities which are 500m away. We specifically ask that guests keep vehicle ins and outs to a minimum at this site, and to only walk to the amenities block if these facilities are needed.

Mid week was very quiet. Just what you're looking for when hiking in and around the area. Lower section is more flat which suited our setup. Facilities always clean and hot showers most welcome

Creekside General Campground
Beautiful campground and facility however we booked thinking it was nearly empty due to there being limited “sites” to choose from. Hipcamp only shows a fraction of the sites they have to offer, must have multiple sites that they can be booked through. We turned up thinking it would be nearly empty and peaceful and quiet, it was not. There were around 50+ other campers including what appeared to be high school camps. Beautiful spot but not what we were expecting

A beautiful private and quiet space. The shed, table and water in hand made it very convenient and made our stay comfortable.

This is my second time camping there, and I have loved it just as much as the first time. Such a beautiful space, clean facilities, other campers are always friendly and never have anything negative to say about this place. Stunning views, plenty of walks, and so much fun being near animals

Volcano View Campsite
My partner and I absolutely loved camping at Mt Barney Eco Park, and in particular, our spot at Volcano View. This site was away from all the other campers, which allowed our group to feel secluded - something we were hoping for! The addition of the small undercover area and camp tables was awesome, and we were able to have many awesome fires in the huge fire pit. The amenities were a walkable distance away, and also very clean and maintained. Hot water was a huge bonus! Potable water from the tap at the site was also extremely helpful. 10/10

It was great to camp at Mnt Barney Lodge. The camp site was lush and green, and you can hear the creek running as you sleep. It’s easy to get to from Brisbane, the facilities are clean, and generally a pleasure to camp there. We did some biking in the surrounding area's. The scenery was spectacular!!
