Old Forest Camp

Private and peaceful

We enjoyed 2 nights at Banksia Springs using it as a base to explore the Stanthorpe region. Steven was a great host providing lots of information before we arrived and value added to our experience enabling us to purchase gourmet pork sausages and farm fresh eggs. We supported his children by purchasing firewood which they delivered to our campsite and to our amazement we received a huge neatly staked pile of firewood. The sawdust toilet is a bonus as is the fire pit with its adjustable cooking plates. The campsite has mature trees providing dapple shade and is near a dam providing nice sunsets almost over the water! Thanks Steven for a providing a private and peaceful camp for our enjoyment.

Old Forest Camp

We really enjoyed staying at Steve and Julia's campsite - very peaceful and close access to great bushwalks in the surrounding national parks. Would love to visit again some day!

Tranquil stay

Great stay! Our lovely hosts provided excellent directions and met us as we arrived. The site is level with beautiful views and a tranquil setting. Perfect for those that want to be off-grid.

Old Forest Camp

Great campsite in a great location.

Great campsite! Flat, spacious, great sunset views, loads of wildlife, toilet and great fire pit! This is a gem of a location with friendly hosts. Good fire wood and great meat are extras but worth ever penny. Highly recommend as a base to explore the many attractions around the area.
