Everybody Welcome! Just bring a great attitude and enjoy a peaceful stay :) Located on the beautiful O'Connell River, this camp site is surrounded by gorgeous landscapes including a mountain range and the river. The property boasts many areas to go for walks, enjoy the wildlife and relax. You can enjoy spacious camping choices either along the river or on other selected areas throughout the property (we will show you where). We always ensure a limited number of campers so you get the space and tranquility you deserve on your camping trip. No side by side camping, always spacious and comfortable. There is access to a large number of compostable toilets and 4 cold showers on site. Wildlife is in abundance throughout the property and includes grazing wallabies, ducks and birdlife which are an everyday occurrence. The property is also the home of our Festival - Mushroom Valley, throughout the site you will find different pieces of artwork, decor and permanent structures that bring artistic life to the site. We are a friendly and relaxed family who live on the site and we look forward to welcoming you to our little piece of paradise. Well behaved pets are welcome, please discuss with us upon booking :)

The Azure Space - BBQ Area
Always a Pleasure
Ben & Ash are wonderful hosts. We love that we were able to enjoy our own space whilst still having friendly neighbours a good distance away. Composting toilets nearby were a convenience and we were camping right next to the waterhole entrance which the kids loved! Having a BBQ at this space was also a nice treat - the ‘O’ ring was a bit past it’s used by date so we replaced that 😊 We really enjoy coming camping here at least once a year and the Azure space is definitely a welcome home away from home.

Big grass flat camping area, good swimming hole in the creek with a rope swing off the tree, drop hole toilets were ok, there are cold showers if you look for them...nice place

Ben and Ash were wonderful, friendly hosts as always. This is our second stay and won't be our last. It's a beautiful, tranquil place and the camping beside the waterhole is fantastic and uncrowded.
