Spirit of the Forest is one of the oldest properties in the area. Many years ago  it was an old dairy farm, but it has been through many transitions since then.... uniquely situated only a few kms. from the majestic "Grandis" tree it has an abundance of wildlife close by, wallabies come out to feed on the pasture at dusk and dawn, mighty eagles soar overhead and beautiful Arabian horses run free in the paddocks. Trevor and Maya moved here from Berry NSW 17 years ago. Trevor is an internationally acclaimed entertainer and horse whisperer and Maya is an artist, author and lecturer. Both found the property a haven from their busy schedule of performing overseas. A unique 70 acre Arabian horse property, surrounded by Myall Lakes National Park 4 kms from "The Grandis" the tallest tree in NSW and 10 kms from Bulahdelah Town also near to beautiful North Coast beaches.  There are many beautiful areas to choose from to camp, as well as a cabin. A portable 240v generator (1) is available for hire $10.00 a day, fuel included, advance booking.

No Flies or Mozzies, Thats a winner
Trevor and Maya are just lovely people. They both came to greet us when we arrived. It was only our 3rd Hipcamp with our new van but the best yet. We set up next to the Dam/Pond/Watering hole. Just a beautiful spot. Surrounded by rainforest that can't grow any taller. The ground there was perfect and we didn't need to level the van at all. Plenty of wildlife to see at dusk and dawn as well as the horses that look larger than normal even at a distance. (I am not a horse expert obviously) It was early Autumn and fairly warm but almost no flies or mosquitoes. The flies we did get had just escaped from Jurassic Park. They didn't bother us as we were too small of a target for them. They were looking for larger-than-normal horses. The following morning after breakfast Maya and Trevor stopped by with, let's call him Declan the Whippet, A beautiful boy/dog. After just a short time we had come to the mutual conclusion that we were now friends and we should see each other again. We very much look forward to our next visit to see more of what this void in the middle of the rainforest will show us. Explore the areas outside the front gate as well as Stony Creek Road will take you on some great adventures, according to Google. We will do them in time. and also hear about the well-travelled and fascinating lives that these pair have had before deciding to invite us strangers into their lives.

Trees, open space and horses. Fab!
Our second visit. We had a fabulous camping experience with myself and a number of my daughter’s friends. We had both rain and sun - the camp ground stood up well to both. Spent hot afternoons at the nearby cute and clean free public pool 10 mins away by car which was even better than the beach for us. Good firewood supplied by Trevor. Will be back.
