Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
90 acres of natural bushland with 300 meters of Mary River frontage. This is a great place for a base camp to explore the region. Campsites are nestled amongst trees. There's nothing here but peace and quiet, spacious sites. The banks of the river are quite high and there is limited access into the water. There are 2 boat ramps about 7 or 8 klms from the property. Arrive between midday and 2pm if possible so you can set up your camp. Don't forget to bring your insect repellent as you are in the bush and beside the river. We have also just built a shelter shed/camp kitchen have 1000 litre water pods. No rubbish bins at the camp so bring everything you need & remove everything you bring. - Dogs welcome. Due to past incidents, friendly, non -aggressive dogs only please. - Campfires permitted in designated areas when restrictions aren't in place - Free firewood, gather fallen timber from the land This is a quiet and safe bush setting in natural Australian bush. Mary River Bush Camp is set on 80 acres of natural bushland just 9 klms from the historic city of Maryborough. This is the perfect spot to rest and recover. There is a drop toilet available.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Nestled by the Mary River, this campsite offers a peaceful retreat with plenty of space to unwind. Campers appreciate the serene atmosphere and beautiful river views, perfect for a relaxing getaway. However, be prepared for nature's nuisances as many reviews mention an abundance of mosquitoes. Despite the lack of direct river access and some basic amenities, the spot's tranquility and proximity to town make it a favorite for those seeking a quiet escape.

    Camped in a 5 m camper trailer, Oct 2026.

    It was okay

    We had a very relaxing stay that was quiet with the magpies coming to our camp site for a few scraps to feed their baby.Watching the Mary river flowing and the river barge travelling up and down the river was calming to watch. We would recommend this property to anyone who wants to just sit back and enjoy. An access to the river would highly be appreciated to go fishing and put the crab pot in

    I enjoyed my stay at this hipcamp. Gary was extremely polite and helpful, we had an amazing chat when I've arrived. The views of the mary river from the bank edge were beautiful (the edge is quite high so beware). Had the spot to myself so my overall experience was peaceful and rejuvenating.

    We could have stayed for weeks.. might still do that. So nice and quiet just camped over the river. Dolphins and boats cruise past every day. The only downside i could find is no river access for fishing, or we wouldn't leave! Yes, there are mozzies but not a lot in winter but it is the riverside!
