Enjoy the sound of the wild river flowing and the beautiful birds. You may even be fortunate enough to spot a platypus? Lovely flat camp sites, each with it's own fire drum. Explore and discover picnic spots along the river. Come enjoy the peace and tranquillity. Herberton historical town nearby. Explore the Atherton tablelands using here as a base. Located only 5-10 minutes to shops. Dogs welcome but to be kept on leash. Chop your own firewood supply from dead trees and fallen branches. New campground toilet available for guests to use.

Amazing, except weeds and ants
Great surrounding area, close to town. Onsite dunny is handy, river bordering the property rather nice, free fire wood everywhere close by, horses in a fenced area near camping area. Two gripes about actual camp space. It's badly infested with bull ants and big black ants, no flies or mozzies though. Ant nests every 10 square meters in camp space. Bizarre. Wouldn't hurt to target these nests few times a year to make camping a pleasant and safe for little kids. And the grassed area where u camp, well there is no grass, it's your choice of sticky seed weeds, those barbed seed weeds that get right into your socks, or sensitive weed which I've now discovered if you walk on enough in thongs you'll get tiny splinters in the side of your foot. Look I have several air bnb units myself, I totally get weighing up the cost of improvement vs income, it's hard to spend and deciding on what. The weeds and ants gota go, sucha shame so much potential, perfect area for families, all fenced in and phone reception enough to make phone calls in an emergency. As it is, good for adults, not kids. 5/10.

Great Camp site
The camp was very clean and we had plenty of room even though there were other camps around us. It's a beautiful property and the creek is amazing. Everyone had a great time.

It was lovely and cold appreciated the toilet provided and the directions were easy to follow I do think that the sensitive weed could be poisoned that would be my only suggestion Thank you for opening your property to us

Nice spot
Nice big open area to set up with direct access down to the beautiful creek. Short 4wd track to get down to the camping area. We towed 2x 19ft caravans down with no troubles
