Nestled right up against the escarpment at an elevation of 450m, this high-end, off-grid 40 acre property effectively offers your own private slice of Macquarie Pass National Park - amazing views, giant cedar trees, fern forests, cascading waterfalls and palms surround.
It feels remote but it's only 90 min from Sydney, 30 min to Kiama and just 15 min to the shops. The property also offers the only hiking path up to the top of the escarpment for some truly amazing views.
As of September 2025, many of the trails on the property have been degraded by the rains and are now challenging for 2WD cars. If you're towing or it's wet we recommend AWD or 4WD vehicles.
Since this is coastal rainforest and it has been very wet, expect leeches anywhere it is damp. These are easily kept at bay with deet and or trousers tucked into socks.
We're not particularly price sensitive - until all those rate rises - but we are extremely value sensitive so we set out to make your stay extremely good value for your hard earned money. The land itself does most of the heavy lifting but also personal service and of course there's Lana to fall in love with.
Note, Mellows Rd is 2.6km long and rises 400m - in parts the road is a 15 degree grade. It's all paved but narrow so if you are towing a large heavy load, it's going to strain your car.

I checked in late with no issues. There wasn’t the Hip Camp sign but once I drove to the property Bruce was there to greet me. He was very kind and I had the choice of a few camp spots. I stopped over during a long drive.

Fantastic place to stay with lots of space and nice privacy, we arrived later than we would’ve wanted but Luvina was still on hand to help us find the property.
Nice and peaceful place with lots to do and decent facilities for how rural it is! We would love to return at some point

Beautiful spot at the back of a horse property. A little babbling Creek in walking distance. Able to reverse a 19'6 caravan into the space.
Kirsty was friendly and accommodating of a request for early arrival due to extreme heat. Excellent location for Nowra, Jervis Bay exploring.

What a wonderful place to stay, Mel was a fabulous host. So tranquil, directions were good but vague, we missed the turnoff so could do with a sign on the fence from the road possibly.
Otherwise such a lovely spot, nice little creek flowing next to our site. Easy access with our 14ft caravan and Triton, also had a Hyundai i load with no dramas. Overall we would come again. Good access to Wattamola falls Beach, Thirroul etc.

Great location with lots of features. Both Dams are perfect for cooling off kids/dogs - both have really good access, and plenty of vegetation and shade. Sites are spaced-out well and directions provided were great.
Highlight was the walk down to down to Little River, which was easy to find.

It was our first time camping and we honestly had the best experience. The host was incredibly nice, friendly, and very informative, while still giving us complete privacy throughout our stay. The highlight of our trip was Lana (the host’s dog) — she was the sweetest, so friendly, ans stayed with us most of the time which made the experience even more special. We were short on time so couldn’t do the trail on this visit, but we’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone planning a camping trip!

Great spot above the big dam. Spent the heatwave (41degrees) here and being able to swim in the dam or down at the river (10min walk) was perfect. Felt like we had it to ourselves despite 2 or 3 others being there. Loads of space. Also feels quite off grid but only a short drive to town to pick up any bits you need.

Loved the campsite and exploring the river on our floats. I would say a map of the property to have prior would be helpful. So many kangaroos once the sun started coming down

I liked how secluded and private the camp site. It’s nice to pitch a tent on grassy ground.
It’s surrounded by trees, so we got plenty of shades and avoided the sun during high heat of 37C.
The toilet is not near, maybe 250 metres away. I don’t mind the walk at day light. It’s a flush toilet, has sink to wash hands. Bring your own soap and toilet paper. It has sensor lights and switch light inside.
Very low traffic sound, not bothered at all. We hear mostly birds chirping, which is great. Grocery is 8 minutes drive.
Carrinton falls is about 5 mins Drive. Illawara Fly Tree top is about 10mins. The delicious Robertson Pie 3 mins drive. Must try lemon tart and chunky beef pie.
Anyway, overall we enjoyed our stay.
Highly recommends this camp site if you want to explore around the area.
Oh also the host is prompt in responding to my inquiries. Thank you.

We loved camping at Secrets of Terara! Site 4 is very spacious compared to the other sites, though keep in mind it’s the furthest from the toilets, so there’s a bit of a walk. The property appears to be a working farm, with old equipment and sheds scattered around. While this adds character, it’s worth noting that it may not be the safest for little ones - we had to keep a close eye on our daughter.
There’s no drinking water on site, but the toilets are modern and clean. We brought our own portable shower, which worked well. The location feels wonderfully secluded and peaceful, yet Nowra is just a short drive away if you need supplies. Jervis Bay is also nearby. Highly recommend Wowly Creek at Callala Bay for a swim!
Paula was fantastic and super responsive throughout our stay. Overall, a beautiful spot and we’ll definitely be back!
