Escape to a peaceful, private farm camping experience on the Mid North Coast of NSW. Located near Port Macquarie and just six minutes from the Pacific Highway, Misty Creek Farm offers exclusive creekside camping surrounded by bushland and farmland. We welcome only one booking at a time, giving you complete privacy and plenty of space to relax and unwind. Our spacious grassed campsite sits beside a creek, surrounded by trees for a secluded feel. Wake to birdsong, and spend your days enjoying the private creek frontage. Cool off in the natural swimming hole, and feed our friendly Scottish Highlander cattle and pygmy goats. Keep an eye out for platypus in the creek, along with abundant birdlife. Explore the original bullock trails through the property on a bushwalk to our private cliff-top lookout, with spectacular views across the Hannam Vale Valley to South Brother Mountain and out towards the coast at Crowdy Head. There is also direct access to walking trails in the nearby Middle Brother State Forest. As the sun sets, relax next to the campfire and enjoy a sky full of stars. This is a simple off-grid camping experience with no power or water connected to the campsite. A private bathroom with a toilet, hot shower and hand basin is available for guests, located approximately 250 metres from the campsite via a flat, easy gravel driveway. Seasonal fruit, vegetables, fresh eggs and firewood are available to purchase when available. Although you'll feel a world away, local conveniences are close by. Johns River has a café, tavern and petrol station just minutes away. Woolworths is approximately 18 minutes away, while Taree and Port Macquarie are both around 30 minutes away. Access to the property includes approximately 2.7 km of gravel road with two creek crossings (causeways), adding to the authentic rural farm experience. ***As this is an off-grid campsite, please bring your own drinking water and power, and take all rubbish with you.The campsite is a spacious, grassed area of approximately one acre, bordered by Jerrys Creek and surrounded by trees for a secluded feel.

Fantastic private stay

This is our most favourite hip camp! We had the site all to ourselves, site has a swing, a table, a fire pit and fire wood provided which created a very warm, welcoming and private campsite. Our daughter absolutely loved feeding the animals. We bought fresh eggs from Shannon Aaron which are delicious and fresh. Shannon and her husband are star hosts We recommend visiting Misty creek 10/10!

An absolutely lovely place to stay - almost want to keep it secret so that I’ll be available every time we drive past! Perfect base to explore the Port Macquarie region. Shannon and Aaron are great hosts, providing everything we needed. Seeing and feeding the animals was a treat for the kids. Will hopefully be back again when we’re traveling that way next time. Thanks!

We stayed two nights at Misty Creek Farm and loved it! The hosts, Shannon and Aaron were friendly and accommodating, they respected our privacy at the camp site but were also super happy to have a chat and show us around their beautiful farm when they spotted us wondering around. We got to meet, feed and pet their highland cows and goats, even got followed by the chickens on a few occasions when they thought we might have a chicken friendly snack. The provided bathroom was clean, well kept and a hot shower made all the difference! The camp site itself was large and quite (minus the nearby cows and goats of course but I wouldn’t have it any other way). Plenty of room to spread out, run around or play games with the creek babbling near by. Heaps of firewood provided as well as a fire pit, bench, table and swing! The whole experience was perfect and we will be back.

We enjoyed our stay at Misty Creek Farm! It was a beautiful quiet spot with a little creek and a nice shaded area. The site has a large grass area with plenty of room to set up camp and enjoy the fire or lunch under the trees. We will definitely be back! Great spot!

My partner and I had the privilege of staying the night here. The owner was super welcoming and accommodating, showed us around and even let us feed the animals! Very peacful spot listening to the creek we were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves. Definitely will be coming back here and highly recommend their eggs! 🐮🌾🐓🌳
