Maddara.Organic.Farm.and.Art

9 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents120 acres · Yass River, NSW
Once a much larger property, we purchased our 120-acre (50-hectare) in 1984 as a means to live sustainably and raise a family. Living in our shed whilst we prepared the garden, put in watering infrastructure and built our house which we finally moved in when our daughter was 6 months old in 1990. Over the ensuing years we have continued to increase biodiversity on the property and set it up so we can live sustainably, harvesting our own water, electricity and food. If your lucky you could get a hamper of our product when there is sufficient in season. With the increased biodiversity you will find that in the mornings and evenings kangaroos and wallabies will visit with the occasional echidna, rabbit and hare; and to forget the large array of bird life - that may wake you early in the morning with the songs. This campsite is set on lovely grassy open areas interspersed with gum trees. The sunrise looks spectacular near the dam, when the trees give off a lovely glow. The main paddock has a Geodome, a shared space for relaxing in. With all that space you can park and set up camp anywhere in the paddock. There is access to drinking water, toilets, and a hot shower. Around the dome is a firepit, drinking water and a camp kitchen. The firepit features an Argentinian BBQ and a plate for cooking. The kitchen has plates, cups, cutlery, and other bits and pieces for you to use. If you want exclusive use of the paddocks - refer to Group Bush Retreat.

The best camping near Burrinjuck Waters State Park guide

Overview

About

Nestled on the shores of Lake Burrinjuck, Burrinjuck Waters State Park is a haven for nature enthusiasts and anglers alike. With its abundant freshwater fishing, native wildlife, and scenic walking trails, the park offers a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle. Whether you're casting a line for Murray Cod, exploring the Hume and Hovell walking track, or simply soaking in the waterfront views, Burrinjuck Waters is an idyllic destination for outdoor adventure.

When to go

The best time to visit Burrinjuck Waters State Park is during the milder months, from September to April, when the weather is conducive for outdoor activities. Summer can be quite warm, making it less ideal for hiking but perfect for water-based adventures. Winter brings cooler temperatures, which may not be suitable for camping but still offers a peaceful escape for those looking to enjoy the park's natural beauty.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's office hours, which are from 8:30am to 5pm, to ensure you can access all necessary services upon arrival.
  • Be aware that Burrinjuck Waters is not dog-friendly, so make alternative arrangements for your furry friends.
  • Prepare for remote conditions; the nearest shops are a significant distance away, so bring all essentials with you.
  • Remember that fire restrictions may apply, and always attend to any campfires in designated fire pits.
  • Take advantage of the park's facilities, including tennis courts, volleyball, and a children's playground, to enhance your stay.
