A huge property away from the hustle and bustle. The dogs loved their daily walks. The sites were big and I would definitely recommend.

We usually go camping twice a year, and for over five years we’ve stayed at various campgrounds. I can honestly say that Susan Riverside has been the best place we’ve ever stayed. The facilities, bathrooms, and showers are always clean. There are great activities for kids, a nice pool, and the campsites are spacious. There are bins conveniently located everywhere. Even with horses around, there’s no bad smell. The place is absolutely amazing — 10/10. I’d come back a thousand times, and I think it’ll be our first choice from now on. Highly recommended!

We will 100% be back! Had the best time camping at Susan River over Easter, there was so much to do - horse riding, swimming, tennis, volleyball, playground, dirt bike tracks, huge bonfire… the list goes on! Cute little cafe on site to get coffees from and a bar in the arvos. The staff were beyond lovely, the property is run by three brothers who are true gentlemen and so caring. We loved it! We will be back!

Absolutely loved our stay over Easter Weekend. Our stand out moment was that although there were alot of campers we weren't boxed in like may other places we have stayed before. Plenty of room to enjoy your own space. Although we stayed at an unpowered site we were incredibly happy to be able to take advantage of all the amenities including the beautiful pool and BBQ area. We also took advantage of taking a picnic down to the lake. Absolutely perfect 👌 the staff were very lovely and very accommodating. We will be back for sure !

Susan River Unpowered Site
Non powered sites are on a huge paddock with plenty of room between at least 20 different campsites on Easter long weekend. For us setting up relatively close to the river/creek, there was practically no mosquitos/bugs that bites to the extent that I slept on my roof racks in a sleeping bag one night when stargazing and woke up untouched. Showers were great, reasonably sized personal cubicles, nice & hot, water pressure was very good when me & 3 of our campers all showered at the same time and only the last person that got in had weak pressure in the shower on the far right. Pool was a great way to cool off on a hot sunny day, >2m deep in the deepest part, only downside is that the surrounding edge of the pool could be swept more to prevent grass and sticks from going in the pool as much. Family/owners running the place are very friendly from the get go, had conversations with the groundskeeper/cleaner and the bloke driving around in the beautiful Land Cruiser delivering firewood and ice every evening. One night, a HUGE bonfire was held and it was a great experience surrounded by nice people and a quick way to warm up. Noise curfew from 9pm-8am, didn’t have issues with neighbouring campers once. Overall would highly recommend, good pricing for the experience you get.

Family Fun at Susan River

Susan River Adventure Powered Site
Our stay at Susan River Homestead (Jan 2025) was absolutely wonderful! The grounds are incredibly spacious and beautifully maintained. The park itself is a picturesque haven with lush green lawns and a serene atmosphere.
While some of the amenities and recreational spaces are a little run-done (refurbishments have begun), they were all clean and perfectly usable. The highlight of our trip was undoubtedly the 2.5-hour horse ride. The horses are clearly well-loved and incredibly well-trained, making for an unforgettable experience.
The large dam was a constant source of entertainment. The kids spent every afternoon exploring the surrounding area, swimming, paddling, and even enjoying a thrilling ride on the tube (we were able to bring our own boat).
The cow feeding was a huge hit with everyone, thanks to the enthusiastic and energetic guidance of TJ. Everyone we encountered at the Homestead was incredibly friendly and welcoming.
The location is perfect, just a short 20-minute drive from both Hervey Bay and Maryborough. We took advantage of this to enjoy the beach and stock up on groceries.
As a bonus, we also participated in the Gel Blasting activity (run separately on the property), which was an absolute blast and highly recommended.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Susan River Homestead to anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. It's the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Abbie and her team are great hosts who go out of their way to help out if they can. It's a particularly good spot for families with plenty of activities to do (horse riding, kids play equipment, trampoline, volleyball, tennis, etc).

Unfortunately we camped during wet weather and were not warned of the water build up, that forms at the bottom of the camp ground. The dam was not swimable, had built up moss and slime, and the single toilet at the Hill top has a permanent resident camper. There are also several other permanent residents that spoil the natural ambient feel of the camp grounds.

The best facilities of any campsite we've been to and spectacular value for money. Nice toilets, showers, laundry, kitchen and the movie room was a nice shelter from the storm. Beautiful location with lots of space. Staff were very friendly. Definitely the place to stay for Hervey Bay

Absolutely loved our stay at Susan River Homestead ❤️ staff are very friendly, the facilities were very clean. The camp-site was spacious and the views were to die for. Pitty about the rain but it did not stop us enjoying relaxing times. Might suggest an upgrade on electricity for the caravan sites. Otherwise was all round a great time.

We had the most amazing Christmas getaway at this beautiful location! The setting was absolutely stunning, providing the perfect backdrop for a family holiday. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. A standout highlight was the horse riding experience led by Abbyand her team. They were fantastic, especially with us beginners, making sure we felt comfortable and confident throughout the ride. The staff/family members were incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive, ensuring we felt at home from the moment we arrived. We honestly can't recommend this place highly enough and look forward to returning in the future!
