A peaceful space with lots of trees and waterways as well as an abundance of wildlife such as deer, kangaroo, black cockatoos, butterflies and so many gorgeous birds. The landscape is varied, with lots of options to explore. From hiking the mountainous steep terrains, to meandering through the many ponds and waterways, or discovering the cleared trails ready for a beautiful bush walk or ride through nature. The peace at night and the stars are unlike anything I've seen, absolutely breathtaking, and only 15 minutes from all the modern amenities you may need. We offer several camping sites, a cabin and a large teepee.Gorgeous nature-filled space with lots of birds, plenty of walking and riding trails, and swimming holes. This land is magical and lots of wildlife to see and fresh air to breathe. We offer several camping spots along the river, all with plenty of space and privacy. There is a camping toilet and BBQ hot plate for cooking and boiling water available. A fire pit for night warmth is available and the stars at night are beyond belief. Sandy beach access for a nice swim for cooling off on the hot days.

basic bush camp
Pretty basic bush camp, with owners house on the property. Plentiful of dry firewood to get your campfire going. Kangaroos come say hi in the morning.

Stary views & "roughing it"camp out
Overall ✨ Stary Ponds lived up to it's name with lovely Stary night views. A pond to swim in on a hot day & access was generally ok. Just watch the wire on the concrete piping section, on the driveway in. Especially if you have a small car! There are a few campgrounds to choose from in the bush area. Kangaroos & other animals range freely about. I would also mention the area around the pond, seems a little neglected, not sure why. Eg. I almost stepped on a nappy as I was stepping out of my car when I arrived on site. The host was not there so I was not able to speak to them but instructions were there for my arrival. Enough for me to work it out. Some items of kids clothing, old rusty pieces etc strewn about. Wasn't what I expected as a little on the unsightly edge there... So! It depends on your idea of "roughing it". They have a rough weather tipi to sit inside on a windy day & sit by a fire. Lots of woody areas & a few little tracks to explore I guess. Just mind your step as a lot of discarded concrete slabs about. I didn't check out the whole place but seems interesting enough for a weekend camp. I enjoyed the quiet & rest so it was good that way & thanks for the opportunity.
