In the small rural town of Millaroo, you will find nestled around sugar cane, horses & a small herd of quiet cattle, a laid back bush camp in a paddock by two dams on the bank of Millaroo Creek. Here you can bird watch, take leisurely walks down to the creek, enjoy a spot of fresh water fishing/red-clawing, launch the kayak where you may spot the odd fresh water crocodile or sit and relax in tranquility on the creek bank. During harvesting season you may visit regular cane fires in the local area, and may be even lucky enough to catch the burn straight across from the campground! The local Millaroo Social Club is a short ten minute drive, where meals are served most Friday nights. The Burdekin river is also a short drive away where you can access the river closer to the township of Millaroo by 4WD for an afternoon barbecue & fish! Campground offers plenty of fresh water for drinking & filling tanks, does requires campers to be self contained & is pet friendly providing they are supervised at all times.

Paddock Camp
Gumtree Rest is absolutely amazing
Amazing space to relax and unwind. Plenty of birdlife by the dam. We shared our camp with some gentle giants (cows) who were great company. Fire pits, a creek to camp by or take a stroll and plenty of space. Amazing hosts and we will definitely be back. Thank you for sharing your beautiful piece of North Queensland with us.

Dam Camp
I have already written a glowing review on Wikicamps and am happy to repeat it. What a wonderful stay. Bruno and Sally are wonderful hosts. We shared a drink on our first afternoon then Bruno offered us the opportunity to see the cane field across the road burn at 3 am. What an experience for city slickers! Great choices of site - down by the river or up near the waterhole, firewood provided, just wonderful. We stayed two days and enjoyed every minute. Bruno was happy to extend our knowledge on cane farming. A family of kookaburras just above in a tree hollow. Thanks. Will see you again. Sandra and Greg

Creek Camp
Great spot by the creek. Private, shady and scenic. Perfect place to enjoy a couple of nights with 2 (9 and 12y.o) kids and a pup. Loved sitting by the creek and campfire. We didn’t experience any mozzies which was surprising. The kids made good use of the little dinghy. Quiet at night. Bruno and Sally were so friendly. Thank you for having us on your property!
