Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
A perfect spot to relax under the stars! A private bush camp experience with a seasonal creek, mango orchard and dam. Pitch your tent or set up your caravan either down near the dam, in a secluded bush setting, or closer to the house yard depending on what you prefer. Enjoy a bush walk around the property, taking in the natural Australian bush environment and enjoy the native wildlife. You may find kookaburras, king fishers, lizards, goannas and wallabies while exploring and can relax by a crackling fire at night. Help feed the farm animals when the owners are home. The goats love a good scratch! Each camp site is private with no other campers booked in the space on the same day. Guests are required to be fully self sufficient with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. Property has secure key pad access.

Black River Bush Retreat Orchard
Very nice property, friendly animals for children. A dog at the top. Our son loved it. The hosts are very available and attentive to detail. We recommend this place if you want to stay near Townsville.

Nicole was more than accommodating and lovely to chat with. We took the kids who loved the cows and goats up at the orchard. We had the whole place to ourselves and will come again. Amazing slice of privacy not far from town! Thank you x

Great hosts
Great hosts that went the extra mile, determinedly getting our campfire going when our own attempts failed! Were also welcomed by cute farm animals and saw a bunch of wallabies. A great experience.
