We have several peaceful campsites available on our 175-acre property - some with beautiful escarpment views, and some amongst the peaceful surrounds of the bush. We are 10km from the town of Crows Nest on the Great Dividing Range. 50 minutes from Toowoomba and 2 hours from Brisbane. The hill on the property (Flat Top) is one of the highest points in the area at 700m altitude. From the hilltop, you can enjoy 360-degree views of the surrounding area, with views across the Esk Valley towards the Sunshine Coast, sunsets over the hills surrounding Crows Nest, and even glimpses of Cressbrook Dam. There are 3 separate campsites on the hilltop. We also have secluded bush campsites down in the paddocks, these are private and peaceful with no other campers within sight. They are all situated to be able to enjoy the sunset. We feel very spoilt living here in this beautiful place and would love for others to share it. It is extremely quiet and peaceful, yet less than a 15-minute drive to Crows Nest. There is plenty to explore in the area, including: 🏞 Crows Nest Falls National Park (good for a swim) 🐃 Bullocky's Rest and creekside walk in Crows Nest (dog friendly) 🌳 Ravensbourne National Park (rainforest) 🏚 Crows Nest Museum 🎣 Cressbrook and Perseverance Dams 🚂 Muntapa Railway Tunnel towards Cooyar ☕️ French patisserie and other cafes in Crows Nest. 🛍 Antique and boutique shops 📚 Second-hand book store 👩‍🌾 Also markets in Crows Nest on the first Sunday of each month. Further along the New England Highway, Toowoomba is host to the annual Carnival of Flowers in Spring. We kindly ask that you familiarise yourself with our property rules We hope we can help you have a pleasant and peaceful camping trip! Please note: We have a long gravel driveway and dirt/grass tracks to the campsites. 2WD accessible, but it's rough. Pet friendly 🐕

Eagle's Nest (hilltop site)

We love the view and the seclusion of the camp. Just beware of the wind, which could be quite strong given the position up on the hill. Make sure you bring enough warm clothes due to wind chill factor. We will definitely come back (but will be more prepared this time with wind jackets).

Wood Duck's Nest

Fantastic place

Absolutely fantastic place, easy to find, and we didn’t have a 4wd, and it was not a problem. Nice, secluded, great for the dogs to run around, but still keep within line of sight. Loved it. Crows Nest town is really nice, and close by. Best soda shop I have ever been too. And the landfill was free for domestic waste, and quite convenient when camping.

Eagle's Nest (hilltop site)

Peaceful camping and views to boot.

Where do I start? We stayed at Eagle’s Nest in our Hybrid caravan and the views are spectacular! One could only imagine having the entire site to ourselves, and that’s what makes this place so special, it’s one booking per site. 🤭 Our hosts were very helpful, accommodating, and non intrusive. We ordered firewood, kindling, and farm eggs for our stay. These were waiting for us at our site by the picnic table and huge fire pit. Roaming around our site were two pony’s. Our dogs roamed the site off leash with the pony’s approaching for pats and carrots. The daytime views were breathtaking. We walked the boundary of our site looking at the contours of the land, trying to make out the different landmarks. There’s something special about cooking on the open fire, having a few quiet ones while taking in the stars of the night sky. You just lose track of time out there, it’s just what we needed. Catching the morning sun with a coffee in hand, you can’t get much better. Being so high up one can expect it to be cooler and at times windy, it was refreshing. The compost shared toilet was clean and tidy with sawdust provided, no smell at all. It’s a shame that despite the hosts rules, people carved their names into the trees this year. If you visit, and we will be back, be respectful, leave no footprint. 🧡 That you Leacia and family for having us.

Whipbird's Nest (hilltop site)

Whipbird camp has lovely 360* views of the range. The campsite is roomy but cosy and comfortable at the same time. You feel like you are on top of the world. We were lucky with the weather - not too windy and the foggy starts turned into beautiful sunny days. Leacia provided clear directions and suggestions about what to do and see. We will certainly come back again.
