Come and enjoy a quiet slice of the Far North Queensland bush on our 60-acre property, right on the Millstream River.
Our camping area is approximately one acre of flat, open bushland with plenty of established trees for shade. Rather than having fixed camping pads, we offer a relaxed bush-camping experience where guests can choose their own spot within the designated camping area.
There is room for up to six camping parties, with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the natural surroundings.
Whether you're travelling through the Tablelands, exploring the area around Innot Hot Springs and Ravenshoe, or simply looking for somewhere peaceful to stop for a few nights, we'd love to have you.
🌿 Your stay
Your booking includes:
- One spacious camping area for your group

- Natural shade from established trees
- Designated fire pits

This is fully off-grid camping, so guests need to be self-contained and bring everything they need for their stay, including drinking water, power and toilet/shower facilities.

There are designated fire pits within the camping area and firewood is available for guests to enjoy.
We ask that fires are kept within the designated pits and that all current fire restrictions are followed. Fires may not be permitted during periods of high fire danger.

There is access to the river via a short bush track from the camping area.
Please be aware that the track is steep in sections and uneven underfoot. River access is entirely at your own risk, and children should be supervised closely.
The camping area itself is located on higher, flood-free ground.

We simply ask that guests enjoy the property respectfully and leave it as they found it.

- Keep a safe distance from livestock
- Do not enter areas that are signed or marked as private

📍 A great base for exploring
We're conveniently located just off the Kennedy Highway, making us an easy stop while travelling through the Tablelands.
Innot Hot Springs — approximately 7 minutes
Enjoy a soak in the famous Innot Hot Springs before returning to your campsite for a quiet evening around the fire.
Ravenshoe — approximately 20 minutes
Ravenshoe is the highest town in Queensland and is handy for supplies, cafes and exploring the surrounding area.

The popular free camping area is just down the road. If you're looking for an alternative with more space, access to private land and the ability to enjoy a campfire, our property offers a quieter option.
🌅 Simple bush camping, plenty of space
This isn't a caravan park — and that's exactly the point.
There are no powered sites, concrete pads or rows of caravans. Just a peaceful piece of country, plenty of room to spread out, a campfire at the end of the day and the Millstream River nearby.
Choose your own spot, settle in and enjoy a few quiet days in the bush.
$25 per night | Includes 2 adults | Children free
We look forward to welcoming you to Millstream.

Easy to find if you follow Jacobs directions. Heaps of room at each site.
Very quiet at night time.
$15 for firewood. Fill a wheelbarrow! And it burns well.

Stayed in campsite 3 roomy enough for our caravan. Short walk to the river, site 3 Right next to the newly built amenity block which we didn’t need but handy for those who do, annoying though when people cut through your site to get to it or too lazy to walk the 100mts shining their headlights n blinding you. Would stay again but in another site.

Fantastic campground all around. The amenities were clean and well maintained, and communication with the hosts was easy and helpful. Great location with a really nice setup, freshwater available on site, a solid toilet block, and a cool camp kitchen. We had a great stay and would happily come back again!

Thanks Jacob and family for having us. Floating down the creek was a wonderful escape. The amenities were rustic but did the job and we really appreciated the firewood delivered to our campsite! A very relaxing weekend(although our dog is exhausted!). We will be back. Cheers
