Weekend Trip to Guppy Gully on the Mary

Lovely site & space, but not much shade. I would 100% recommend bringing bug spray for mozzies & there are also lots of flies around. There's onsite firewood & somewhere to leave your cans & bottles when you leave. When we arrived other campers had taken our site, but that was quickly resolved and no harm done

Weekend Trip to Guppy Gully on the Mary

We had a lovely time at campsite no 4 Enjoyed the river in the heat that’s for sure! The temperature was 38 degrees and we were very happy the river had water in it, so we spent most of the day in the water lounging around. At night it really cooled down which was a relief. It really is a lovely spot with only 4 sites and we were the only ones there on our second night. Went for walks, seeing a 2m python on the track one day. Lucky our dog didn’t see it! Beautiful and green everywhere, cows grazing in the morning We will be back, thank you!

We had a fantastic time! It was so quiet and peaceful, with so many different birds and beautifully coloured dragonflies. The river was exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. We’ll definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Moy Park Camping

Our first time at Moy Park Camping was an enjoyable experience. Michelle is a fantastic and friendly host. She was so helpful before and when we arrived and checked in on us when thunderstorms were above. She bakes a sensational Sourdough too. As we were the only campers on site for the days were there, we took the far end site. It's spacious, shaded by trees and just a short walk down to the Mary River for a swim, or up to the paddock to see the dairy cattle. Moy Park is only minutes from Kenilworth and other nearby National Parks. On the day of our departure, we encountered early morning thunderstorms, however, the camp site is well maintained and was no trouble getting out. We'll definitely be back.

Noosa RV camp was absolute paradise. The land itself is so beautiful - a woodland of eucalyptus trees next to a pond and horse pasture where you can spot kangaroos! The land is complete with a kitchen (small fridge, sink with town water, and stovetop), a lovely private outdoor shower, and a firepit & firewood. Ian was generous, responsive, and so helpful in every way - a perfect host! His dog is also the sweetest!! We wish we could have spent more time there, and we would return in a heartbeat.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such an awesome weekend here with our family and friends. The spot was beautiful and easy to get to, with plenty of space to relax and unwind. Michelle was lovely and made us feel so welcome. The creek was perfect for cooling off and the kids had a blast splashing around. Our friends brought their caravan and had no trouble getting in or setting up. Michelle also had her home-cooked cheese and bacon sourdough on offer—it was seriously amazing! Couldn’t recommend this place more for a peaceful, family-friendly getaway.

This place is worth every cent! Wow! If you want privacy, no reception and pure off grid camping, this place is for you. The perfect reset our little family needed. Our kids have voted it's their favourite camp spot around Kenilworth. They spent hours in the water. Lawns mowed and great firepits. Highly recommen! We can't wait to come back. 🙌
