Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Our 40 acre property is home to four quiet, secure, exclusive river front sites on the mighty Clarence River. Boating, fishing and crabbing literally at your doorstep. And it's just a 15 minute drive into the towns of Yamba and Maclean. The campsites are situated right on the bank of the mighty Clarence River, perfectly suited for campers who enjoy the peace and quiet. Please note: Sites 1 and 2 are available for booking up to 3 months in advance. Sites 3 and 4 are only open for for booking up to 1 week in advance as long as the ground isn't too wet. Our property is inhabited by a few cattle and kangaroos and on occasions a couple of visiting brolgas. The private boat ramp is accessible at the main house which is about 100 metres from your campsite. You are welcome to make use of our canoe or kayak which are kept up at the main house. Pets are welcome but must be kept under control. Campfires are allowed permitting there are no restrictions in place. Each campsite has it's own firepit surround in which to light your camp fire. Firewood is available for purchase. Campers must bring their own toilet and be fully self sufficient. Leave the site as you found it and take all waste with you on departure. The campsite is accessible by 2WD and can accommodate caravans, campervans and camper trailers. The sites are generally level and grassy.

Absolut river front camping. It is tranquil and quiet and still close enough to Yamba township. We loved staying here. Owner Zoe and Glenn were very welcoming and came up for a chat. We definitely recommend staying here if you are self-sufficient.

Lovely spot and great hosts
You should be self contained for starters as there are no amenities. The water is just in front of your site though - great for kayaking or just enjoying the view. A strong north easterly can make it a bit unpleasant for tents but a caravan is ok, just sit on the other side.

Our friends with their caravan stayed at site 2. The site was equipped with green grass and level. Great stay, host Glenn was very friendly and helpful.

Stayed at riverside rest for 2 night with our 20ft van and it was perfect. Quiet and serene with direct access to the river for a fish. Dolphin came in for feed in the shallows. Thanks Zoe and Glenn for your hospitality.

Riverfront Camping at its Finest
An absolute top spot. Right on the river banks, lovely grassy area and the fishing was great as well. Sites are well spaced apart and quite private.. we will definitely be back.

A beautifully maintained property by great hosts Zoe and Glenn. Such a peaceful camp right on the water, all sites well spaced out and lots of wildlife around as well. Great spot if you have a boat as there is a boat ramp available to use. Would highly recommend staying here.
