SORRY WE ARE FULLY BOOKED FOR OCT 4TH, 5TH & 6TH The River Orchard is a majestic 165 acres property nestled between the Oxley River and Mt Warning. The working macadamia farm boasts five campsites each positioned in different nooks with only one group booked in per campsite. Pets and campfires welcome. Hot water shower and compost toilet cleaned several times a day. The Flats Site - The Flats is an extra large site closest to the Oxley River enjoying direct water access with two levels. The first is sheltered by an overhanging sour cherry tree and overlooks the bottom plateau and swimming spot. This site is a short three minute walk to the shower shed. Riverview Site - Riverview is perched on the raised riverbank looking down upon the swimming spot and rapids. A sprawling old tree shelters this extra spacious campsite ideal for large groups. We recommend Riverview for guests with younger children as it does not have direct river access and is the closest to the shower shed. Orchard View - Situated next to the Riverview campsite, this location is close to the river with stunning views across the macadamia orchard. The Grove - The Grove is one of our cosiest sites framed by a towering tree complete with stag horns, with branches that sprawl out over the campsite offering an abundance of shade. Close to the shower shed & a short walk to the river. The Pine Hideaway - This is our most private and stunning site. It looks out over the lotus flower filled dam to mountain panoramas and a secluded island. We look forward to welcoming you.

Orchard View
A peaceful stay
We are 4 couples had a great time and enjoyed the peaceful stay. Decent distance to other sites, so had our own private space to enjoy. Friendly Michelle greeted us with a big smile at the entrance and directed us to the site. Toilet is an old style one which uses sawdust. Maybe not for everyone. Shower was fine. Will visit again.

Enjoyable stay!
First time caping with Hicamp and it was very good! Wonderful location, we enjoyed exploring it, beautiful horses and birds everywhere. We slept in every day it was serene and relaxing. Our toddler loved it! Highly recommend! If you wish to explore outside there are absolutely beautiful treks near by (driving). We felt so relaxed we were bummed to leave ahah Thank you Michele for having us!

Camping at ‘The Flats’
We loved camping at ‘The Flats’! So much room for the dogs and kids to run around and with a beautiful view. The river was also lovely to explore and swim in. Michelle is a wonderful host. Would definitely stay again.

Orchard View
Great river camp
This is our second visit to this property. It is a lovely spot by the Oxley River. We stayed in the Orchard View camp this time. It is in a great location between the river and the amenities block. There are lovely trees for shade, and you can hear the river. There is a great hot shower. The sawdust toilet is probably not for everyone, but it is camping after all. It was busy as we stayed over the long weekend, but Michelle had everyone nicely spaced out with loads of room between us. Michelle has been great to communicate with, and directions to the property are clear. Close to Murwillumbah for supplies if needed. We love this camp :)

Riverview Site
Peaceful, Tranquil,
Riverview site was so lovely and peaceful, looking over the river. You could hear the gentle rapids as you slept and sat around the fire at night. Having shower and toilet was a bonus. The short drop was cleaned regularly and was not at all terrible. Super impressed that it was a long weekend and it was not overbooked to maximise the space. We were far from other campsites. Highly recommend and will be back. Bring your kayaks, stand up paddle boards and blow up boats! Love this place.
