Dam Crazy? You would have to be to bypass over 620 acres of scenic bushland off the beaten track for your next camping getaway or stopover on your way on the Bruce Highway. An abundance of birdlife with over 135 different species found so far including a Powerful Owl. A magnificent 400 megalitre dam that now forms part of the natural landscape of this unique property. A hidden gem in the Wide Bay/Fraser Coast area of Queensland where relaxation, peace and privacy are unavoidable as are the sunsets and shooting stars in the clear skies above. We are 20 minutes from the quaint Childers Township and 50 minutes from Bundaberg. The property is totally private and caravans cannot been seen from the road, the owners live on the property and only booked guests are to enter the property offering security and peace of mind. Whether you want to bird watch, kayak, fish (catch and release only), hike or ride one of the many trails or sit, relax and read your favourite book, we promise a warm welcome; from the wildlife and the proprietors Miranda, Brendon and Esa the dog. Dam Crazy is also pet friendly, dogs must be cleaned up after and may be walked off leash on the walking trails (please be mindful of other campers, farm animals and wildlife), they may also swim in the dam but must be contained or kept on leash in the campsite areas. The dam is very deep and could have snags washed down in floods, so we suggest children wear life jackets, and MUST be supervised by adults at all times around the water. Numbers are limited to ensure you have plenty of space and privacy! Campers must take all waste with them. Very good cellphone receptionDam Crazy?

Absolutely beautiful. The camp spot was fantastic. Toilet block was well kept. The dam was wonderful to kayak in and swim in. Loved our stay. We will be back for sure.

Beautiful place with perfect hosts
Simply, an amazingly beautiful place. Miranda and Brendon are super hosts, nothing is too much trouble. Brendon brings wood round each day for only $15 for 20kg, very good value for money. There are three walks on the property, and we did them all. Large sites with fire pits, picnic table and views of the Dam (we stayed on site 3). In summary, we cannot recommend this place enough. PS - if there are any mountain bikers out there who plan to stay at Dam Crazy, we found trails at Promised Land, which was about a 25 minute drive - excellent trails.
