All of our camp sites are EXCLUSIVE unless you are travelling with others, you will have complete privacy and uninterrupted time during your stay at Francvillers. After years of hosting the odd group of people, friends of friends or distant acquaintances - it got us to thinking; there is a reason why they just keep coming back. We are located 25 minutes south of Cunnamulla, South West QLD. We offer seclusion, only taking three to four self-sufficient groups at a time ensuring complete privacy, no shared space. Just the real Outback. Weather permitting. Your only neighbours out here are the wildlife and our stock. The camping spot is right beside a dam/bore drain, with good access from the main road, wet weather permitting. We have an endless supply of Gidgee wood around the camp spot, its the third densest wood in the world, which makes it the ultimate firewood for campers! You can walk, bird watch, fish, swim or just sit back and soak up the country atmosphere. For more information and property rules please refer to our website [xxxxxxxx] All campers must be self-sufficient and bring their own camping toilet. Pets are welcome to join you but please keep dogs on a leash as we have sheep and cattle in the paddock you’ll be camping in.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
This campsite offers a peaceful retreat with a focus on privacy and serenity. Many visitors enjoyed the unique experience of heated artesian baths under the stars, often highlighting the ample wildlife and birdwatching opportunities. The site is well-organized, with clear directions and plenty of firewood available, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the solitude. A few reviews noted potential noise from nearby traffic and a lack of facilities, but overall, campers appreciated the tranquility and natural beauty of the area.

Sarah was a wonderful host and luckily we had the lake site to ourselfs. It wouldn’t have been quite the same if both sites were occupied. The heated baths are a real treat and lying in them at night stargazing was very memorable
