4 nights at White Wallaby Farm

We spent four wonderful days camping on David’s property and absolutely loved it. The campsite is a beautiful, peaceful spot right by the river, with lovely views across to the cows grazing on the neighbouring property. Waking up and falling asleep to the sound of kookaburras was something really special, and during the day we enjoyed hearing the cows and cooling off with swims in the river. David is a genuinely kind and welcoming host, very helpful without being intrusive. We also loved being able to purchase fresh garlic, turmeric, and ginger straight from his farm, which was a real bonus. A truly relaxing and authentic camping experience. We highly recommend this place and would happily come back again.

1 night at Misty Mountain - Kunghur

One of the most beautiful locations we visited on our trip. The views are amazing. You choose where you want to camp - we set up on campsite No. 2 and were the only ones around. Picked up some firewood at the entrance and roasted some marshmallows as the sun set. The compost toilet at this site was a little rough around the edges but there are flushing toilets at the central area.

1 night at Caldera Creek Farm

Beautiful location next to a little stream and some very picturesque paddocks. The paddock we were in was certainly a little overgrown and rugged but this was also the kind of "wild" vibe we were after - perfect for us, but maybe not for everybody. Phone reception was also very patchy but again, we didn't book a camping trip to sit on our phones. The communication betwen Jon & his family was great and they came down to deliver some firewood and have a nice little chat. Great place, great people, great times. ...despite getting caught in the worst storm I've ever experienced in my life. Hopefully future campers have a bit more luck with the weather.

Weekend Trip to McKenzies Mountain, Wollumbin

We had a great spot with good shade. A dip in the lovely creek. Saw lots of turtles but didn't spot a platypus unfortunately. Be warned, the toilets aren't great. We ended up using our portable toilet. The toilet got emptied on our 2nd day so was probably more tolerable by then. Guys on site were lovely.

Weekend Trip to Warning View Campground

Second time back and it won’t be outlast. We Love this quiet and private camp to just sit and listen and de-stress. The sound of the running water, occasional cows mooing, birds calling, the rustle of the goannas through the underbrush, and the breezes in the trees are enough of a soundtrack for us to enjoy. Spotted eels and catfish amongst the small and abundant native fish & shrimp in the crystal clear waters of the swimming hole this time. Easy access and plenty of level spots to park up our caravan and our friend campervan along with the convenience of an onsite toilet makes this site a real gem. Can’t wait to come back soon!

Weekend Trip to Magic of Mt Warning

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay ! Terri was a fantastic host—so welcoming, kind, and always ready to help in any way she could. The property itself is simply stunning. Falling asleep while gazing at the moon, enjoying dinners with the sunset glowing over Mount Warning, and sitting peacefully by the campfire made this experience truly magical. The peace and quiet were perfect, and the birdlife in the morning was incredible—such a beautiful way to wake up. This place offers everything you hope for in a nature escape: breathtaking views, total tranquility, and genuine hospitality. We would 100% recommend this spot and would gladly return without hesitation.

Our campground is on my family’s dairy farm that has been in the family since 1904. I’m the 4th generation on the farm and work alongside my parents and my husband operating the family business of milking cows. The campsite is on a private area of flat ground right beside the Oxley River with views of Mt Warning. We are excited to share our piece of paradise with others. We DO have a composting toilet but DON’T have any shower facilities. Although the creek is very close by we advise you bring your own drinking water. We are pleased to provide a gravelled campfire area along with a gorgeous outdoor setting that seats 8. Our campground provides a unique private camping opportunity. Once you book whether it is for a group of one or 25 no one else can book the site. The site is not visible from the road. Perfect for a relaxing getaway that brings you close to nature and connecting with friends. As we are a working farm, unfortunately, we cannot allow pets.
