Paperbark Bush Camp is a private bush camp set in Natures Paradise in the bush. It's beautiful tranquil place to escape and catch your breath. Only 3km drive to the beach. You can often, hear the waves at night. Some of our off-grid areas and powered sites are for children over 15 years old. Set amongst the trees and green grassy paddocks, you can’t help but relax and unwind. There’s an array of wildlife. Thriving bird life, kangaroos, green tree frogs, goanna's. Take an easy bush walk on the property’s 108 acres, if you’re quiet you may just come across an echidna or large monitor lizard. Watch the birds take a flying dip in the dam on a sunny afternoon and the King parrots come to the feeder every day. Bring your guitar and enjoy sitting around your own open fire place with an endless supply of wood to burn. Unlike the usual busy caravan parks, we offer a peaceful bush camping setting with plenty of space for you to choose where you want to park. The surface areas are all relatively flat and suitable for camping, camper trailers, caravans and motor homes. Amenities We have both powered and un-powered sites with five that are powered. Tap into fresh clean natural spring water. Bring your jerry cans to fill up on site if you’re camping in the off-grid zones. There is a fish cleaning area with filleting bench and hose available for all to use. There are three amenities buildings with a total of 2 showers and 7 toilets. Also enjoy a cool shower at one of the 4 outside showers in summer to rinse off when you get back from the beach. We also have a laundry room with washing machine and clothes lines. For the ultimate bush experience, go off-grid camping at one of five secluded camps out the back of the property completely surrounded by trees. These are quite large areas and can fit the whole family or a group with room to park a few caravans.

Off-grid - East side - Turtle sites

Bush camping at its best. Level grass area with plenty of space to park up as well as shady areas. Spotless amenities and water available to fill up your tanks. Even a boat wash down area. 5 minutes drive takes you to Rules Beach or for a fish in Baffle Creek. Paula, the camp manager, is very friendly and welcoming. We will be back.

Off-grid - South side - Kangaroo

Real Bush Camping

When arriving at the camp site, we were greeted by Paula, who generously showed us around all the facilities and helped us select the right pitch for our setup. The camp ground was spotless and very beautiful views across the site. It was so peaceful surrounded by nature and the fact we could enjoy the fire they supply on request. We will definitely be coming back to this hidden gem and a big thank you to Paula and the owners for making our stay so enjoyable.

Off-grid - South side - Kangaroo

Beautiful grounds with great amenities. The owners Daniel and Jennifer are warm and welcoming.. Plenty of open flat ground with sites away from each other.. They have some powered sites but plenty of off grid.. Paula was friendly and helpful and showed us all around. The day we left Paula popped over to say goodbye and thank us for staying .... John the groundsman made sure we camped in a safe spot and bought us a fire pit, there is plenty of wood.. Would highly recommend staying and we will be back.

Hidden Gem

We loved staying in Sun site number 2. We had the whole section to ourselves which is unheard of over Easter long weekend. The outdoor showers were incredible after visiting Rules Beach only a short drive away. The amenities were clean and the staff were friendly and super helpful. Thanks so much PBBC!
