The campgrounds themselves are located on 27 acres mixed acres lush rainforest, rolling paddocks and river flats, the 1.5 acre campground is a one minute stroll to the banks of the Tweed River providing easy access for kayaking, SUP-ing, bass fishing and swimming or wander the creek bed and keep your eyes peeled for crystals amongst the river stones.
Campsites are set in an open, clean paddock with lush soft grass. All sites are within close proximity to a large all-weather shelter perched high on a hill, equipped with solar festoon lighting, a large timber table with chairs and a firepit which all guests are welcome to use, perfect for BBQing under on a drizzly day or enjoying lunch out of the sun. Campfires are welcome and each site is provided with a private firepit for use. You can purchase hardwood for your fire as an add on if you like which will be waiting for you on arrival.
Animal lovers welcome. The campgrounds are located on a small hobby farm so you'll enjoy sightings of our highland cows, horses, ponies, free ranging ducks and chickens, donkeys and even our neighbours camels. Turtles are often sighted at the river and if you're lucky you may see the local platypus.
You need to be a self-contained camper with your own camping toilet/shower, and drinking water. We have rainwater available at the shared BBQ shelter but this is not potable. Our property is 2WD accessible (paddock base so at your discretion), and can accommodate caravans, campervans, camper trailers. We recommend the Valley View or Hilltop Sites for larger vans or non 4WD vans for ease of access however all sites are accessible for 4WD vans and campers. In wet weather 4WD are recommended as our grounds are a paddock base.
This site is prefect for families and travellers who enjoy getting back to nature and soaking in the energy at the base of one of the Three Sisters that bounders Mt Wollumbin. Strictly no parties and loud music as this is a family friendly site.
