Located between Rockhampton and Emu Park beach. 711 Thompson Point Road Nankin Our campsites are located in a rural setting with plenty of shady trees, friendly cows and mountain views close to the Fitzroy River. Relax around a campfire on a peaceful dam and listen to the kookaburras. Dip your toes into the cool water whilst sipping watching the sunset. It is 10km to the upgraded Fitzroy River/Thompson Point boat ramp and pontoon. Enjoy some excellent fishing and crabbing on the river, bird watching and bush walking up the many hills. Only 1/2 hr. drive to the beaches (Emu Park and Yeppoon), National Parks (Mt Etna Caves, Mt Archer Baga, Limestone Creek), and Rockhampton (Kershaw Gardens and Rockhampton Free Zoo).

Great place to stay...off the grid. Both Tracy and Ian "salt of the earth", enjoyed our communication with each. Would recommend this place for a great stay while travelling around this region of Queensland. Cheers Lynda and Jo

Great location just south off Rockhampton, Really nice country outlook over the dam and paddocks. No highway way “noise“… No Coal train “noise”…… easy to find and set up on your own…large sites with fire pits and you can buy bags off fire wood $15 (honesty box) right there…lots off wildlife and cattle, very relaxing we would stay again when in the area…. Ian and Tracey are just wonderful country people and (hosts) We caught up and had a beer and a yarn…. On our last night…. We would definitely recommend take a break bush camping we where in a pantec truck with caravan and had no problems with access …
