Kippa’s Rest

99%
(108)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 11 · Vehicles under 10 m
Kippa’s Rest offers a private, large semi shaded site for tent/camper trailer or caravans. The site is big enough to turn and manoeuvre comfortably. Kids will love enjoying the creek, drop downs, sand or water. This is strictly a leave no trace site. - Current Creek Condition. Creek in flow 28-11-25 Enter the site gate and the land drops down to a level area that is sided by Sandy Creek on 2 sides. Sandy Creek is seasonal, when it’s full there will be water wrapping around site unfenced. Please monitor children. As with all our sites, a fence and gate is in place to keep the cattle from straying around your tents etc. 2 fire pits to choose from with a hot plate that remains onsite. Self contained toilets are required by campers, no pit toilets accepted. The camp is approx 400m from other camps and is private, closed in by trees and the undulating ground. Access is best by a 4wd but if your feeling adventurous, a 2wd will generally be without issue also. Firewood can be collected from any timber already on the ground, you may bring axe/chainsaw. There is a container placed along the track which generally has firewood for sale in bags- operates an honesty box located on-top. $15/bag. Bottle Tree Hotel is a couple minutes away by drive and well worth a visit. Brisbane Valley Rail Trail closest access point is on Borallon Station Rd, 2 minutes car drive away. (If you ride to it bear in mind you will need to cross the Brisbane Valley Highway). Secluded and quiet location

Sandy Creek provides a quiet and clean camping experience with private sites away from other campers. There are no facilities but that"s no problem if you can be self sufficient. We loved it and would happily stay there again.

The campsites are nicely spaced with plenty of distance between them for privacy, and they're all fenced off, great for keeping the cattle out. Easy to access, well-maintained, and with big, open areas to spread out. had a fantastic stay and can't wait to visit again!

Excellent! I got to roll in with good faith ,chill the night and met Camoron next morning . Very cool hosts. Other campsites look just as good (from a distance). Weather was hot and humid as it is in summer so if you want running creek hope it rains before you go. That's up to mother nature . .Firewood available as you drive in at $15 a bag (who's got change for a 20) Very much enjoyed my stay as a solo camper .. Even Vodaphone had service so i didn't need to hook up to starlink. Thank you for the peaceful haven

Another amazing camp at the Party Hut! The care and effort that they go to, to ensure your camp is special is amazing! Well groomed grass areas and a fresh drop toilet are always welcomed. If you’re on the fence of choosing this place, then do yourself a favour and give it a go!

We had such a wonderful stay at Gums. The site was private, peaceful, and a really decent size, giving us plenty of space to relax without feeling crowded. The property is clearly very well looked after, and the added gazebo with chairs and tables was such a bonus, perfect for meals, shade, and winding down in the afternoons. It’s a beautiful escape so close to Brisbane, yet it feels like you’re a world away. We’ll definitely be back!

We have been searching for a camp site for a while that has everything we want, we like privacy and quiet with no other campers walking through our camp or setting up right beside our camp. We booked and stayed at gums on the billabong and it is the perfect spot. Thank you Cameron we have now finally found our perfect camp spot and will definitely be booking this site from now on. The extra little touches you have added to the site is amazing thank you again. Rob

The site we had was beautiful and shady in the afternoons. We had a caravan and stayed at the party hut which was very private and our fur babies enjoyed it too. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. Cameron was easily contactable and lovely to deal with.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing peaceful stay This campsite is beautifully maintained and feels very secure. It’s completely private and incredibly quiet — the perfect place to relax and switch off. I was curious about the wood-fire heated outdoor bath, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. Heating the water with fire and bathing under the stars after a hot day was absolutely incredible. Such a special off-grid moment. The nearby river and creek are also stunning — perfect for cooling down and enjoying nature. Overall, my stay was so relaxing and peaceful. I also want to apologise — when I was leaving, my car bumped into one of the wooden benches near the fire pit. The timber was heavier than I expected, and I wasn’t able to put it back perfectly. I’m very sorry for that. Thank you so much for providing such a beautiful place. I’d love to come back again.

Thoroughly enjoyed 5 nights camping at The Gums with my dogs. I am a repeat customer and love the serenity there. The almost 4 hour return trip is always worth it. Received a nice supply of wood which I pre-ordered and got to meet more of the host family who are lovely people and really take care of their property and their campers. It was great to see the Monarch butterfly (plus other butterfly’s) thriving on the milkweed plant. Monarch butterfly numbers are dwindling in Australia so this was such a blessing to see. Had fun searching for their caterpillars also! Enjoyed watching the resident Willy wagtails with their two offspring, the resident kingfisher and magpies plus all the other birds and reptiles spotted during our walks.

Was a great experience, well maintained spot to camp on. Host was very respectful and made sure we where aware of the wet weather coming. Was also very responsive to talk to. And firewood is only 15 bucks a load. Would recommend this spot to any hipcampers looking for a nice private spot in our beautiful country. I will be booking here again.

Kippa’s Rest
We had a lovely little overnighter at "Kippa's Rest". The area is flat and well shaded with plenty of fallen timber for firewood. There are two other campsites within a few hundred metres, but we didn't hear anything from the neighbours, unless we were up on top of the rise gathering firewood. We contemplated a 3min drive down to the Bottle tree Hotel at Glamorganvale, but we stayed in and enjoyed the serenity instead. Lots of bird life and zero light pollution - we'll take our telescope next time.

Easily one of my fave spots! Tucked away & private from passerbys, creek (weather dependant, small pools atm) that surrounds the site, cattle fencing is ideal for my Dogs' post-swim Zoomies & SO MUCH SHADE from the heat 🌞 Kind Host family is happy to offer help & honour my privacy, I've only seen them a few times but have camped here dozens of times! They've put lots of work into levelling the driveways etc lately too. Jet flyovers are always cool to see & don't hear from the Dog Motel as much these days, especially in this spot👌 Check-in!! xXx

It's a beautiful and relaxing spot. We took a small group of teenage girls and they even coped well enough with the drop toilet. Haha Cameron is always helpful with any enquiries. We have now stayed at 2 of the sites and really like them both.
