River Run Farm Camping was one of those places that reminds you why we love camping so much. Nestled along the river near Antigua, about 3 hours from Brisbane, it offers the perfect mix of peaceful bush camping, family-friendly activities, and great facilities.
The sites are spacious, well-maintained, and grassy, with both powered and unpowered options available. We stayed with friends old and new and loved the relaxed atmosphere. While the powered sites are a little closer together, many of the other sites feel wonderfully secluded and private.
The amenities were spotless, with flushing toilets, hot showers, an outdoor bath/shower for the kids, laundry facilities, and a fantastic camp kitchen. The hosts clearly care about creating a welcoming environment for families.
Our kids absolutely loved the Saturday morning animal feeding, and there was plenty to keep them entertained with the playground, BMX track, swimming area, fishing, and boat ramp. We also enjoyed spotting the horses, cows, and birdlife around the property.
There is some occasional train noise, but overall the campground is incredibly peaceful. Telstra reception was reliable, pets are welcome on leash, and every site has its own campfire ring.
If you’re looking for a relaxing riverside escape where the kids can roam, play, and connect with nature while the adults unwind around the campfire, River Run Farm Camping is an easy recommendation. We can’t wait to return.
