Only a 10 min drive to Tin Can bay and 15 mins to Rainbow Beach - and a Woolworths/bakery/bottle shop 5 mins down the road. Please let us know approximate arrival times when possible, and any arrivals after 7pm, by prior arrangement. THINGS TO CONSIDER: Unfortunately we can only accommodate tent/camper trailer bookings and not large motorhomes or towed caravans of any kind. Flooding does occur during rainy season, roughly January to April, which can make the site and area inaccessible. Please check/consider conditions when booking and in the lead up to your stay. During the months of September and October we have nesting birds on the property and swooping can be issue and something to keep in mind if any of your group have an aversion to birds.  As per Hipcamp rules/insurance policy, there must be a person over 18 years old on site with any under 18s during the stay.

Beautiful and secluded paddock at the back of our house on one and a half acres, located in Cooloola Cove. PLEASE READ THE FULL DESCRIPTION BEFORE BOOKING. A perfect spot to explore the area and a jump off point for K'gari/Fraser Island. Amenities include: fire pit (bring your own wood), camp oven cooking pit, full BBQ kitchen in the fully powered shed with huge commercial fridge and running/drinkable water. The kitchen includes plates/bowls/cutlery/knives/mugs/glasses/frying pans/pots, there's a toaster/kettle/microwave, a big gas BBQ with a hotplate and BBQ utensils/tongs etc. There's also camp ovens and a jaffle iron. Guests can also enjoy access to an outdoor bathroom with a shower, toilet and a beautiful claw footed bathtub! Pets are welcome, but the yard is only partially block fenced. So any escape artists would have an easy time absconding. This is a drone video taken by a past camper to give a better idea of the site https://youtu.be/k1nAEmX6Wy8 We only accept one booking at a time so you’ll have the space all to yourself. Only a 10 min drive to Tin Can bay and 15 mins to Rainbow Beach - and a Woolworths/bakery/bottle shop 5 mins down the road. Please let us know approximate arrival times when possible, and any arrivals after 7pm, by prior arrangement. THINGS TO CONSIDER: Unfortunately we can only accommodate tent/camper trailer bookings and not large motorhomes or towed caravans of any kind. Flooding does occur during rainy season, roughly January to April, which can make the site and area inaccessible. Please check/consider conditions when booking and in the lead up to your stay. During the months of September and October we have nesting birds on the property and swooping can be issue and something to keep in mind if any of your group have an aversion to birds.  As per Hipcamp rules/insurance policy, there must be a person over 18 years old on site with any under 18s during the stay.

We absolutely loved camping at Paperbark Farm, not only were the sites spacious and the animals friendly, Michelle was wonderful - she was always around to say hello, and helped us when we needed. The horses are beautiful and friendly and love some carrots. Location is great, just 15 minutes from Hervey Bay. Would 100% recommend Michelle’s place!

Had a wonderful visit! The camp spots were well kept and very relaxing. The farm had animals which were free roaming and made it extra social waking up to sheep just at our door step Loved it and would recommend to anyone!

We had a wonderful time! The hosts are absolutely lovely, Michelle and her daughter made us feel like family, our daughter made a friend for life in her. Michelle was so helpful when we arrived and assisted in picking best spot overlooking the dam, which was filled with life, the ducks were adoreable! The piggy’s cute as! There was lots to do and explore for the kids and the camp kitchen was amazing. It was far enough away to feel private but close enough for us to still enjoy the beach.

There was plenty of room to have several campers and lots of space in between sites. I arrived after dark, was able to find a relatively level spot and remain hooked up (drive through). I was only there for an overnight stay during a long-haul trip I cannot really speak to a more long-term stay — it was nice and quiet and I felt safe as a single female traveller.

A great little spot. The kids loved the animals and their was a giant swing set up which kept the kids entertained for hours. The Host Michelle (and her family) were super friendly, helpful and happy to teach the kids about the animals. A very nice stay!

1 night at Dam Crazy Camping
We stayed 1 night in our van with 2 dogs. Lots of room between sites so you definitely don't feel like you're on top of each other. The dam has 2 sandy beach access points on either side of the jetty and was awesome to swim in on a hot day. There are even kayaks to use. Toilets were very clean. Hosts are really friendly and gave us a quick run down of the site and then left us to it. We've already told all our family about Dam Crazy and will certainly be back again.
