Enjoy the best of both worlds, being only a few minutes off the Hwy and 2km from the beach, yet tucked up within the privacy and serenity of 55 acres of beautiful bush and wetlands. The property is a safe haven for an abundance of wildlife, including kangaroos, wallabies, bandicoots, possums, squirrel gliders, snakes, leaf-tailed geckoes, 12 species of frogs and a multitude of birds. Communal facilities include a covered outdoor camp kitchen, an amenities block with composting toilet and hot showers, and a fire circle/ seating area. Activities on the property include: - birdwatching (see if you can add to our list of 50+ species so far!) - spotlighting for nocturnal wildlife - find a quiet spot to sit and soak up the peace of nature... perhaps by the tranquil wetland overflow wall - bushwalking around the perimeter of the endangered Swamp Sclerophyll Forest - private orienteering course (bring your compass! Takes 1-2 hours) -Light a fire under the cast-iron outdoor bath and soak away any stress Attractions close to the property include: - beautiful beaches only 2 km away, great for swimming, surfing or whale watching from the headland - State Forest 2km away, great for hiking and mountain biking - Woolgoolga 5km away, with great cafes and shops We are friendly, nature-loving couple who feel very lucky to be custodians of this special land. We look forward to sharing it with others who wish to step outside the busyness of mainstream life and deepen their connection to nature. Due to the amount of wildlife around, we do not allow pets.

✨ Hipcamping at its finest ✨
We absolutely loved our stay. Such a beautiful place with gorgeous owners. Thank you so much for your hospitality, Sarah and Paul! We saw yellow tailed black cockatoos and had an overall super wholesome and relaxing weekend ✨

Great stop over
A great safe spot to stop for a night when passing through, especially during school holidays. Very sodden underfoot with recent rain but sticking to the drive and gravel sites (for vehicles/campers) helped immensely. The hot shower with great water pressure was a dream after a day of traveling. Thanks to the owners ☺️

Lovely campsite!
Stayed here for one night and loved it! Had everything we needed and more, showers and toilets were nice and clean. Really good location as well, as it’s close to the main road but you wouldn’t be able to tell, a great little hideaway.

Wasn't near a good as the photo depicted, or the reviews. I probably wouldn't rush back.

It was a bit difficult to find the entrance at first, but as soon as I entered, Sarah kindly guided me to the entrance of the camp site and later told me about the facilities and instructions, so there was no inconvenience in using it. There was no inconvenience in using the bathroom, and warm water came out quickly when taking a shower. Since my stay was short, I couldn't explore more, but I think it was a good choice!
