We have a stunning 200-acre property with Swan Creek frontage and a seasonal waterfall, offering breathtaking views to the east of Double Top Mountain and Swanfels Valley. The crisp country air is abundant with wildlife, creating a picturesque and serene atmosphere. Our property offers a variety of camping sites, each with its own unique charm and appeal. We also warmly welcome responsible k9 owners, making sure your furry friends are also able to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Guests must be fully self contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste with them on departure.

Camping and exploring the rockpools
We had an absolute amazing weekend at Anna’s property. Very clear directions, communication amazing. Very welcoming and friendly. Property was perfect for the kids to run around campsite and explore all the rocks and little creek streams. Not too deep but enough to play in. Lots of firewood around and Anna let us know to bring chainsaw if we wanted. Highly recommend and will def be back again for another visit. Our page is “ Adventure with Challenges “ if you wanna see some photos from our stay.

Loved how secluded we were, felt like we were way out bush while still being fairly close to the closest town.

Loved camping on Anna’s land! Instructions were clear, the views were great and we had a lot of unbothered space to explore. The location was great. She provided us a bin for can recycling and a fire pit ready to use.

My family and I had an amazing camp on Anna's property. My kids loved seeing their livestock and playing in and around the creek. The site was secluded and beatiful. We will definately return again and again.

Nice bush campsites
Great site where there is little to do but relax. Site one is a large area, suitable for larger vans and or groups. The roadway into the creek crossing that you access to your site is a little steep but very doable. Steve an Anna were great host with excellent directions and Steve dropping off a load of wood for us. I recommend bringing a chainsaw as there is so much wood laying around, but quite large. Site 1 access to the creek is not really easy as is through a fence and down a steep hill to the creek bank. Site 2 is a bit closer to water, a camp just past the mail site 2 was much easier creek access. Wallabies and bird life everywhere. Day trips to Killarney or Queen Mary falls is very achievable.
