Nestled along a picturesque 1-km stretch of the Bellinger River, our camping grounds offer level, grassy sites with open spaces perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with nature. Just a short walk into town, you’ll find a charming milk bar serving fresh fish and chips only 700 meters down the road, or for the adventurous, swim across the river for breakfast or lunch at the iconic Old Butter Factory Cafe. Enjoy complimentary on-site kayaking, fishing right from your camp, and a chance to spot the elusive platypus! A new fence keeps the cows out, so you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Facilities include a pit toilet. We welcome pets and families, with free entry for children. Only one vehicle per booking is allowed, though we can easily accommodate group bookings on a single site—just email us to arrange. Caravan hire is also available for added convenience.

Absolutely Worth It
60 acres on the river all to ourselves. Dogs can free roam. Kayaks available. Long drop clean toilets. Dom and Jackie are amazing hosts. The effort involved for them to prepare this spot is incredible. So close to Bellingen Main Street. Fire pit and wood available at no cost. Well worth it. Thanks D & J 🥰

The most beautiful view of rolling green pastures surrounded by mountains and on the river. The kid loved when the cows came to visit. Absolute beautiful spot!!!

The camping area was right next to a river where you could swim, go fishing or kayaking. Also the host ensure plenty of firewood was available on the site at no extra cost
